A new wellness concept has opened in Raffles Place, bringing together recovery, restoration and performance in a single space. House Longevity and Sauna Bath House span two floors, combining science-backed treatments with traditional restorative rituals.
Designed for busy city routines, the experience aims to help you reset both physically and mentally within the CBD.
What Is House Longevity?
House Longevity is a wellness and recovery hub in Raffles Place offering science-backed therapy options, including ice baths, sauna and red light therapy.
House Longevity is hosted on the first floor, and Sauna Bath House on B1.
It’s strategically located at Singapore Land Tower, only a 1-minute walk from Raffles Place MRT – making it the perfect option for an after-work recharge.
House Longevity Wellness Treatments
House Longevity currently offers two wellness treatments:
- Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT, $150/session). Guests lie in an enclosed, pressurised chamber with pure oxygen for 60 minutes.
- Red Light Therapy ($88/session). Low-level red light is delivered through full-body light panels. Each session is 10 minutes.
Both therapies support muscle recovery and cellular regeneration, helping to combat fatigue and promote better rest, which are essential in today’s high-stress lifestyle.
While usually associated with athletes and people who exercise frequently, these therapies are designed for everyone.
For example, repeated sessions of red light therapy are proven to help reduce fine lines and wrinkles while stimulating collagen production!
I tried a session of red light therapy, and it was surprisingly straightforward.
Guests dictate the focus area of the therapy – you can expose just the face or choose to undress for a larger treatment area – so it’s actually a customisable experience.
It was only 10 minutes total; five minutes per side, making it a quick and fuss-free treatment option.
It was comfortable, painless and a good moment of privacy, even if I felt like a baked sweet potato.
There’s also a cafe serving coffee and a curated selection of cold brew teas, which you can enjoy at the outside seating.
Sauna Bath House In Singapore
Compared to the science and machine-forward treatments upstairs, Sauna Bath House focuses on traditional Finnish sauna culture.
I was greeted with wood and warm terracotta-coloured walls, which felt welcoming and put me in a relaxed mood.
Here, the facilities include:
- Shared Sauna. Set at 95°C, their sauna is equipped with Finnish heating systems and unbleached Estonian wood to ensure even heating and no cold spots.
- Private Sauna. Set between 70 and 80°C, this private sauna is for small gatherings or solo unwinding time.
- Cold Plunge. Kept at a chilly single-digit temperature, cold plunges help reduce inflammation and restore physical performance – best done immediately after the sauna.
- Hot Pool. The hot pool helps soothe muscles, encouraging blood flow to improve overall body wellbeing.
There is a full suite of amenities, including towels, showers and hairdryers. They also provide clothes for the sauna, so you really only need to bring yourself.
Entry to the Sauna Bath House is priced at $55 for a single 2-hour session and $68 for a full day, with all access to sauna, hot and ice baths.
Singapore’s First Aufguss Sauna Ritual
Something unique they offer is the Aufguss Sauna Ritual, a German wellness practice designed to enhance the benefits of the sauna.
This practice is very popular in Europe and has been gaining traction in Asia, with Sauna Bath House being the first in Singapore to offer it.
Led by a trained and certified sauna master – an Aufgussmeister – the session began with essential oils and ice to create a perfumed steam.
Then, the Aufgussmeister skillfully used a towel to circulate the steam around the space. This looked like a performance: music in the background with the artful twirling, twisting and spinning of the towel. I’ve never seen anything like it.

Despite its interesting presentation, the Aufguss ritual has its benefits. The constant movement made the sauna less stuffy, while still concentrating the heat on every individual present.
I sat comfortably in the sauna for 15 minutes straight, surrounded by the pleasant scents of Estonian wood, eucalyptus and citrus and focused tunnels of hot air directed at me.
I exited the session feeling sweaty but not suffocating from the heat, which is a pleasant difference from the usual sauna experience.
It’s suggested to immediately go into the cold plunge or cold shower, which is what I did. The cold plunge and hot pools are on the smaller side, but I found the temperatures comfortable for relaxing.
This is a good entryway for those looking to try a sauna but not keen on the concept of sitting in a hotbox.
The Aufguss ritual is a unique experience, and I think worth trying at least once!
Verdict: Is House Longevity Worth It?
Yes, House Longevity is worth it. By combining recovery therapies and guided wellness experiences, House Longevity and Sauna Bath House make it easy to unwind and recuperate after a hard day’s work.
With its convenient location, fair prices and wellness services, this is a good option for when you need a pick-me-up.
