The Ritual of Craftsmanship:
West Coast Redcedar
At Cleopatra's Rituals, we take pride in the craftsmanship of our custom-built spaces, including the use of locally sourced, West Coast redcedar. Our redcedar is uniquely knot-free, a rarity found only in the tallest trees of Vancouver and Vancouver Island. This premium wood not only enhances the aesthetic of our custom-built sauna but also reflects our commitment to quality and the natural beauty of our region. Known as the 'Tree of Life' by Indigenous peoples of Canada's West Coast, this cedar honors its deep-rooted cultural significance in traditional craftsmanship.
The hidden energy of selenite
At Cleopatra’s Rituals, every element of our space is designed to honor your journey to relaxation and renewal, including what you can’t see. Our sauna and steam rooms are quietly infused with selenite crystals, discreetly embedded within the walls to elevate your energetic experience.
Selenite is celebrated for its ability to bring clarity, calm, and energetic balance, amplifying the soothing effects of heat and steam. Known as a natural cleanser, it gently sweeps away stagnant energy, creating a sanctuary where your mind, body, and spirit can fully unwind.
Here, you’re not just stepping into a steam room or sauna, you’re stepping into a space intentionally crafted to support your inner harmony. Feel the difference as the subtle energy of selenite works in the background, helping you emerge lighter, clearer, and more connected to yourself.
