PureHeat Cedar Backrest & Headrest Set

An ergonomic Western red cedar backrest paired with a smaller contoured cedar headrest. Slatted construction, rounded sanded edges, ventilated curve. The small accessory that keeps your body off hot wood and makes longer sessions actually comfortable.

Key Features

• Solid Western red cedar slats: Naturally aromatic, moisture-resistant, the right wood for prolonged contact with hot skin.
• Rounded sanded edges: No splinter risk; smooth on bare skin even when the wood gets hot.
• Ventilated curve: The slatted gap keeps skin off direct hot wood contact and lets air circulate behind your back.
• Set: backrest + matching headrest: Ergonomic full backrest plus a contoured neck-and-head support that pairs at the same angle.
• Lightweight and portable: Moves between benches easily; not bolted down.
• Hangs to dry: Built-in hanging loop for between-session storage.
• Sauna-safe at full operating temperature: Tested for traditional 195°F environments.

Why You'll Love It

The difference between "I'll do 20 minutes and call it done" and "I can sit here for the full session" is comfort against hot wood. Bare skin on hot bench wood after 10 minutes is the most common reason customers cut sessions short — the wood gets uncomfortable, and the body relays "we're done" before the actual therapy threshold.

The PureHeat set is the small accessory that fixes that. Cedar's natural moisture-resistance means the backrest doesn't degrade with regular use; the ventilated curve keeps your back away from direct hot wood; the matching headrest means you can fully recline without your neck on bench wood. Five minutes longer per session across a year is a noticeable difference in heat-therapy outcomes.
