The reopening was announced via a blog post on their website. The post reads, in part:

«We understand that  this decision will not be viewed  well  by everyone, but  after almost 6 months of  closure  due to Covid-19 we are ready to reopen to the highest standards  of  health and security for our employees and our customers.»

And it goes on to remind visitors that they will assume (the guests) any liability associated with contacting Covid-19 while visiting the sauna.
