A Sauna Legacy, Rooted in Family

Nordic Sauna®, established in 1963 by the Temme family, began in California importing European heaters and crafting meticulously milled North American wood into top-quality sauna experiences. This tradition of craftsmanship and dedication to quality continues to define Nordic Sauna’s ethos to this day.


Pam Temme, a trailblazer in the custom construction business during a time when female leadership was rare, played a pivotal role in shaping Nordic Sauna’s values. Kim Temme, inheriting his mother’s passion, has become a leading authority in the sauna industry. His dedication to innovation and excellence has propelled Nordic Sauna® to the forefront of the market. With the support of his eldest daughter, Ali Temme, who serves as CFO and personnel manager, the legacy of Nordic Sauna® continues to thrive. Ali’s unwavering drive to uphold Nordic Sauna’s reputation and pursuit of excellence is unparalleled, ensuring that the company remains a beacon of quality and innovation.


Over the years, Nordic Saunas have graced the pages of prestigious publications like Architectural Digest, a testament to their unrivaled craftsmanship and timeless appeal. As pioneers in creating perfection in American Sauna, Nordic Sauna® remains at the forefront of the industry, setting the standard for excellence in commercial and residential sauna design, wellness centers, and spas nationwide.
