Listen to the latest episode of ADK Talks podcast and learn more about On the Equator Mobile Sauna Rentals.
In this episode of the ADK Talks podcast, we speak with Yvonne West, founder and owner of On The Equator Sauna Rentals in the Lake George region of the Adirondacks. On the Equator rents a mobile sauna to clients so they can experience the benefits of saunas at home.
Yvonne shares her story of how she came up with the idea for a mobile sauna service and brought her vision to life. This included building the mobile sauna by hand, navigating the “red tape” and regulatory requirements, and launching a successful business through sheer determination and passion.
Beyond a hot time.

Enjoying saunas’ many healthful benefits.
More than just a relaxing experience, taking a sauna delivers numerous health and wellness benefits, including:
Joint and muscle pain
Benefits to your respiratory system
Improves circulation and blood flow
And may provide benefits to heart health
The Equator’s vision is to make a valuable health and fitness tool accessible to everyone. That's why they created a business that brings saunas to your front door.
Born and raised in Jamaica (the country, not the neighborhood in Queens), Yvonne shares her journey and experiences building a life in the Adirondacks with her extended family and becoming a “Jamerican.”
