A Private Urban Sanctuary in the Heart of Portland
Social Wellness Through Thermal Cycling
According to a recent Gallup study and CDC data, "The health and wellness of Americans are declining, with metrics showing negative trends in both physical and mental health."
Portland has the same wellness decline factors as the rest of the US.
This is also compounded with its wet climate and overcast skies.
Americans are craving off-line connection in holistic
wellness, in particular social wellness.
. Currently American Wellness economy valued at over $2 trillion
· growing at an annual rate of 8.3% over the past five years, while
· Spas have experienced a remarkable annual growth rate of 22%.
The wellness market is projected to reach 9
Trillion by 2028.
PORTLAND
Very few social wellness spa options
and none of them PRIVATE.
To address this gap, We are founding a unique thermal cycling spa featuring private spa dens, available
for reservation by individuals or small groups, catering to the growing demand for newer healthier ways
to socialize through personalized self-care experiences.
A Self Guided Thermal Cycling Spa
This practice is rooted in ancient wisdom
to support the ever-growing desire to find calm in our modern
world.
Reserve a den in the heart or Portland and transport from the outside world to an inside haven. Immerse yourself in its sanctuary, where a rain shower, dry sauna, and cold plunge await. Soak in the tranquil waters opening to an outdoor garden. Embark on a self-guided ritual, cycling through hot, cold, wet and dry.

COMMUNITY COVI
In addition to the private Dens, there
is an outdoor community space called
the Covi. The Covi offers four saunas
of varying sizes and a single large cold
plunge in a garden setting. Designed
for communal socializing rather than
private rituals, the Covi offer an
affordable option for regular thermal
cycling and represents a meaningful
revenue driver for the business.
RETAIL
There will be a retail space where local
products and collaborations are
available for purchase. Any product of
use in the den and community space
will be in the retail store. Apothecary
products, robes, towels, sauna hats,
and more.

BIO
Based in Portland, OR, I bring over 20 years of experience in commercial photography as photo art director, specializing inorchestrating large teams to produce impactful campaigns for renowned American brands such as Gap, Banana Republic, Walmart, and Levi's, as well as local favorites like Hanna Andersson and Pendleton.
Also, as a managing partner of Little Rumble Inc., my husband's video production agency, I have played a pivotal role in startup operations over the past five years, encompassing everything from hiring and payroll to operational management and creative direction. This hands-on experience has fortified my capabilities as a business owner. I believe in authentic leadership that cultivates creativity and collaboration, and I am excited to bring this ethos to THE ANTOINETTE DENS.
The Antoinette Dens is named in honor of my
grandmother and lineage. My grandma, Antoinette,
recently passed away at the age of 101. She
represented vibrancy, determination, empowerment,
and most importantly,
A Life well Lived.
Last Thought
With the ever-increasing drive for human connection in a world swimming in a digital
landscape, the sauna boom is now. I want to help put Portland on the map as a
destination for one of the fastest growing markets out there. Our PNW climate and
culture are ripe for it.
THIS IS A ONE OF ONE SPACE.
