A New Way to Recover — Introducing WeBorn
Recovery is no longer passive — WeBorn turns it into a guided, social experience of heat, cold, and connection.
The Social Recovery Club
Sauna. Ice Bath. Guided.
WeBorn is Vienna’s first Social Recovery Club — a new kind of urban space where recovery becomes an experience, not a routine.
Located in the heart of the city, WeBorn combines guided sauna, ice bathing, breathwork, and movement into immersive group classes designed to reset the nervous system, build resilience, and elevate performance.
A New Way to Recover
WeBorn is not a traditional spa.
And it’s not just a sauna.
At WeBorn, visitors book guided group classes where trained guides lead them through a carefully curated journey of heat, cold, breath, and movement.
Inside the sauna, music, scent, and guided activities create an immersive environment that activates both body and mind.
In the ice bath, participants learn to consciously regulate stress, expand breathing capacity, and stay present under pressure.
The result:
mental clarity, stronger stress resilience, and deeper recovery.
The Concept: Sauna. Ice Bath. Guided.
WeBorn introduces a new urban ritual:
-
Guided sauna & ice bath sessions with different activities, ranging from meditation, breathwork, skin care rituals, stretching or movement inside the sauna
-
Ice bath experiences focused on mental strength and nervous system regulation
-
A shared group dynamic that transforms recovery into an experience
Classes are offered in different formats (20, 45, and 75 minutes) and designed to meet different needs — from deep relaxation to high-energy activation.
Why now?
The global wellbeing movement is shifting.
Recovery, mental fitness, and nervous system regulation are becoming essential — not optional. WeBorn responds to this shift by making structured recovery accessible, social, and experiential.
It brings together multiple trends — cold exposure, breathwork, mindfulness, and performance recovery — in one place, for the first time in Vienna.
The Science behind it
WeBorn is built on proven physiological effects of heat and cold exposure:
-
Increased dopamine (+250%) and noradrenaline (+530%) → improved mood & focus
-
Faster recovery & reduced inflammation
-
Enhanced stress resilience through nervous system training
-
Improved sleep, metabolism, & cardiovascular health
Regular exposure to heat and cold can help the body adapt, regulate, and perform better under stress.
Designed for Experience
The space itself is part of the journey.
Designed by Studio Kasacek, WeBorn features comfty colors, organic shapes, and flowing transitions that guide visitors through different states — from activation to deep relaxation.
It’s not just a place you visit — it’s a space you move through.
Built by Experience
WeBorn was founded by Katharina Fojtl and Jessica Halper, combining backgrounds in business, fitness, and mental health.
What started as a shared frustration — lack of effective recovery despite active lifestyles — became a vision: To create a place where people can actively recover, reconnect with their bodies, and build resilience together.
More than Recovery
WeBorn is a space for:
-
nervous system reset & balance
-
mental clarity
-
physical regeneration
-
improved resilience
-
emotional balance
-
community and shared experience
It redefines recovery as something active, guided, and collective.
