Here is award winning remodeling expert Nick Kerzner.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
W S Talk eleven thirty wis and I'm so excited
today and I bet you are too, because your favorite
show of the day is on Sunday Mornings with the
Construction Guru. I have a returning guest I have and
we were trying to think of a moniker for him
this morning, but he said, I have one, and it's
a sweat fanatic, Eric Kralowitz from Good hell Saunas. How
(00:43):
you doing, man, I'm doing well. Thanks for having me on.
I always enjoy coming on here with you, Nick, I
love it too. It and you know it's been a while.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
I've been busy. You've been busy.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
You've had a lot of shows.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Yeah, yeah, you know what you We were talking and
your business is insane, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Oh yeah, it's it's.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
I mean, since the last time we talked, it's gotten better.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
It just keeps growing and growing. Throughout the entire country.
And business is good. And when you have a really
good product that people enjoy and it improves their health,
makes them feel a lot better, and you treat your
customers right, and business growth, and that's what we're seeing.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
And that's not what you're seeing out of so many companies.
You know, I I'm seeing strictly everybody's running by and
I get businesses, business profit and law statements in that
customer service has become kind of a sideline for many companies.
You know, it's like, oh, push one for this, this
call is going to be recorded, all of that kind
of stuff. And you like us, you guys, And I
(01:45):
guess I should. I should describe our connection. We met
at a show many years ago talking about that's where
we met right at the show.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
Yeah, we were at NAI right after COVID, I think
like the first year back.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
And we started talking and saw us weren't new to
me because I've had one for ages, but you explained
a lot of things about saunas and health and how
it all falls into play, and so we got connected
because we have customers that have installed good health saunas.
The cool thing about it is we'll make a little
I don't know, is it niche or is it niche?
Speaker 3 (02:20):
I like to say niche, yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Because niche makes me sound like I should have a scarf.
But yeah, we'll make a little niche and install a
good health sauna in there. And I love that because
if you know, if you have to service it, or
you want to take it with you when you leave.
Because that's another thing about it. You put this in
your house if you move to another, so they can
go with you.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Oh, it's very easy to take apart and put together.
So it's just eight pieces. It's four walls, a ceiling
of floor, a bench and a bench support and everything,
or all the walls just buckle together on the outside corners.
So if somebody has never done it before, it usually
takes them about an hour. Us that do it all
the time, we have it done in fifteen minutes. And
(03:01):
I move mine twice. I'm on my third house with
my same sauna.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Yeah, because they last I mean we talked about thousands
of hours.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Yeah, fifty thousand hours up to one hundred thousand hours
of use. So nobody's going to reach the life expectancy
of the sauna.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
So the other thing that that's cool about good health
Saunas is their infrared, so it's not as involved in installation.
It's basically put it together, push it in the.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Niche, and plug it in right and you're done exactly.
So there's no venting, no water lines, no drains, no filters.
It's literally just a free standing unit that plugs into
an outlet. And they're all normal one hundred and twenty
bolt circuits too, so it's super easy, uh, maintenance free
other than putting towels down and soaking up your sweat.
(03:53):
And that's one of the that's one of the reasons
why people enjoy using it so much. Is it something
that improves their health, but they don't have to sit
there and maintain this thing years and years.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
There is some exciting news for you guys. You mentioned
it and I just saw it yesterday when I was
looking for it. You got a brand new office.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
Building, Yeah, we did. I just moved into it last week,
so it's a brand news.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Now. Is your Is your office overlooking the freeway? Yes? Cool,
that's kind of a cool view. You get the action
and you know when you're at I wouldn't want it
at my house, but at work it's kind of cool
because it keeps you rolling right.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Yeah, And it's right across from the movie theater on
nine ninety four, the Majestic, And it's a thirty seven
thousand square foot warehouse with offices. And we still have
our showroom on Bluemount Road at Master Spots of Southern Wisconsin.
But then we have good House Sauna's national office right
on the rail road in the town of Brookfield.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Okay, give the address out. You don't know it yet.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
I do not know the warehouse office yet.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
So so the truth is it is brand new and
that's where you're eventually your showroom is going to be
for the saunas right when you get everything, well.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
There's going to be a showroom there. But we're going
to have two showrooms because we have the hot Tub
store on Blue Mount that stain and a lot of
people come in to look at hot tub saunas, bi chemicals,
stuff like that, and that's where we've been for many
many years and where customers know where to find us.
But if you want to come to the main office
and where you could also see all of our competitor
(05:27):
saunas that we have there.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Now we're going to talk about that a little bit more.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
That's that's going to be on de rail Road, so
they're literally two minutes apart from each other.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Yeah, I'm gonna plug master Spas a little bit too.
This isn't the master Spas of the old days. This
is this is a new, new company, newer and I
have a master master Spa. And the reason I'm saying
that is because what's really cool about that showroom office
area there is you walk in, there's somebody there. I
(05:59):
was able to get some parts that I needed, some jets,
the filters are all there, so it's not like you
have to order online. You know, a spy is something
for me. I mean I've had I've had. This isn't
my first rodeo. I've had saunas and spas forever and
I tell people they'll say, well, but you know, after
a while, you get sick of the sauna. I'm sauning
(06:21):
two to three times a week minimum, and through summer too,
so that's nobs. And I do shut down the spa
in the summer when it's hot. But we fired that
bad boy up nationally and I've been in it three
times in the last so it is something that you
know you're gonna use. It's not like I also have
(06:42):
a Peloton bike. It's a great place to hang my
dress shirts.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
I know exactly what you're saying. And I'll talk to
people when they're thinking about buying a sauna and stuff.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Like that, and.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
One of the worries that they have is the like,
is this going to be like the treadmill we bought
and then now it sits there and we used it, or.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
The massage chair. Yep, that's another one.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
And the cool thing about using a sauna is it's
not like a vitamin. You're not using your sauna because
people tell you it's good for you. You're using your
sauna because you feel like a million bucks. You know
it's good for you, absolutely true. And then it's not
like a treadmill where I'm like, oh man, I got
to go run on a treadmill for twenty minutes. I've
learned to enjoy the heat, enjoy the sweating process, but
it's how I feel afterwards. That's why I use it
(07:28):
every day, and for what it does for me, I'll
use for the rest of my life, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
I think one thing that I would share in my
own experience is that when I started using the sauna,
it becomes completely unbearable. After about ten minutes, it's hard
to breathe, it's hard, you're sweating, it's uncomfortable. You got
to get through that first phase. For me, I did.
I had to get through that first phase. It takes
(07:53):
about thirty days, right for me, it did. Now I
can sit in there for an hour, in there long
enough that my wife will come up outguar, are you okay?
You know, because she doesn't use it as much, so
it has more of an impact on her. But you
build up I don't know what you what you build up,
but you build up this tolerance to the heat, and
(08:14):
when you sweat a lot and you get out and
you take a nice shower, it's like a completely refreshing experience.
And I learned that because I used to go to
vic Tanny as a younger man, and I would go
into the sauna and I always felt great. Sometimes I
just go there to use a saunay. The downside of
that is so did everybody else, So you're sitting in
everybody else's bodily fluids. When you have your own sauna,
(08:36):
it's it's really cool.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
One of the things I'm seeing in the market ever
since COVID is you know how they shut down gyms
and saunas during COVID, So what did people do? People
are building home gyms throughout the country in their house
because there and what they'll say. They'll come in the
booth or they'll call me and they'll say, Hey, I'm
building a home gym. I canceled my gym membership. But
the one thing I don't have is the sauna. That
(09:00):
had the sauna and I need to put a sa
on and I got the perfect spot in my home
gym to put it, and now I'm looking for one.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
And you know, the other thing that I like about
your situation is you have different size saunas. So even
if you have a small basement, I've seen him in garages.
You don't have to if you don't have a very
large home. You can put this thing in your basement.
You can dress it up a little bit with the
walls around it. There's a radio in it. Yeah, very cool. Matt.
(09:27):
Matt started out that way before we did his his basement,
he had his sauna in the garage. He was using
it and just moved it when it was time, yep,
And I know I'll call him up because we're still working.
We're still working on MAT's house. Now. Wow, Aquatica is
putting in a water feature, doing a by the way,
gorgeous job. You got to stop by his you know
that front hill. He's got a waterfall coming down. Now. Well,
(09:49):
then when you go into his finished basement, there's a
niche or a niche, depending on how you want to
say it, where we installed the good hell sauna. And
I'll call him up and I'll talk to me. Go.
I'm in a on it right now. The other day
I was there. He's out of town. I was doing
some research on the rear deck we're going to be doing.
And he has literally like a computer stand on the
outside of the window. It almost looks like it was
(10:11):
made for it. I don't know if you had something
to do with that, but I think he's working out
of there. So you know, he works from home. He's
an IT guy, and I think he goes in there
and he can work from there, and he's got the
screen right outside the right outside the window, and I
you know.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Oh yeah, I have a lot of customers that that
work from home and they'll work and the sauna. Now me,
I'm I'm guilty of probably watching YouTube on my phone
in there for about ten fifteen minutes. But then this
the phone will overheat and I got to throw it
outside the song.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
I know if you were going to say that or not,
but you're right, I've done it too. I'm I'll be
at marketplace looking for something where it's a great time.
You know, sometimes I do scripture in there. I'll be
looking at that and it's like all of a sudden,
the phone it'll it'll say, you know, emergency has got
that exclamation point once.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
Once the phone starts acting, it starts lagging. I know,
I gotta get this thing out right away.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Well, and you know, in mine up north, I thought
about making like a little hole in the wall where
I could put it out. You know, it's outside with
a little piece of plexiglass store on there. Because then
because I listened to my music through the phone too.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Yeah, yep, there's bluetooth speakers in there that you can
listen to tunes. There's chromotherapy lights that cycle through different
colors and and we get a bit different benefits from
different colors. And I like to do some easy stretches
just some neck circles, shoulder circles, stuff like that, because
I like to use the first thing in the morning.
So I like to say, I get the fuzzies off,
(11:33):
and it's a great way to wake up for the date.
Now it's a good time to use it, I would say,
this morning, of course I did. I came straight from
the sauna every day.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
So don't you think that's I mean, you know, let's
not kid ourselves. You're you're very, very successful at this.
You manage the whole sauna m h side of your business.
I think that part of the reason and why you
are so successful and so believable is that you really
buy into what you do because you're doing it. Oh yeah,
(12:08):
and I know that if you ran for president tomorrow
and one, you would still be taking a sauna every morning,
wouldn't you.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Because there's nothing out there that makes me feel as
good other than maybe good quality sleep, because nothing affects
our mood tomorrow more than the quality of sleep we
get tonight. The other thing is I have to get
a deep sweat. And I'm not talking a little trickle
going for a run outside and getting a little damp
around your neck. I'm talking full blown where it's raining
off your body. That's when you feel like a million bucks.
(12:35):
And that's because of the endorphins our body releases when
we have to sweat, and then the reduction of inflammation
in our body makes our body feel so much better.
I live the lifestyle. That's why I'm successful, is because
this is what I do. I use it every day
and I will for the rest of my life.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Eric, let's take a short break. When we come back,
let's talk a little bit. I want to talk to
you a little bit about the frequency thing because I've
learned a few things since we talked. I always think
of you when I come up with these health things
because you're always explaining shock, proteins and all of that,
and it's amazing what you learn. And then it does
dovetail into other holistic remedies. When you start sawning it,
(13:14):
it really does you start thinking, this makes me what
if I did that? All right, well, so we'll talk
about that right after break. All right, News Talk eleven
thirty WISN. When we return after these great messages, News
Talk eleven thirty WISN returning from break, It's me Nick
(13:36):
the construction Guru. I'm excited to be here today. I
do want to plug my company real quick, if you
don't mind, Eric, If you're thinking about a remodeling project,
I always say you should get three opinions. Make one
of those ours. We'd love to come out and talk
to you about a new kitchen, bathroom, wreck room, or
even if it's kind of a reface or a TLC project,
maybe new countertops for your kitchen. Kurzner. There is no
(13:58):
job too big or small. We do them good or
not at all. So give us a call at two
six two five six seven twenty five hundred at Kurzony.
We will treat your home as if it were our own.
I have a returning guest. He's a friend of mine.
He's taught me a lot about holistic health. As many
of you probably know, I've talked about it in the past.
I am a cancer survivor and most of my treatment
(14:21):
was holistic. As I learned, and I have been drawn
to several people who are in that line of work,
and Eric Cralobitz is one of them. I met him
at a show. We were talking about Saunas and he
explained to me, there's so much to know, and I
think that. You know, people look at it and go, oh,
you're going there in sweat. Now there's let's talk about
(14:43):
some of the real health benefits that come out of it,
the different wavelengths, why the infrared is important, what it does.
I mean, you're and you've told me this, you're getting
a surge of people who are cancer survivors and very
interested in sauna because when you get that diagnosis, you
start doing a ton of research. Oh yeah, and all
of a sudden you start looking at things. I mean,
(15:05):
you have a lot of people who are cancer survivors
that have sawn us right.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Oh yeah, big time. So we get we'll get people
that you know, when you get diagnosed with that, it's
a big scary word, and people will do anything that
they possibly can to defeat the cancer yep, and reduce it.
And one of the benefits of using a sauna is
the heat shock proteins that our body releases when we're
in there, which is repairing damaged DNA and damage cells.
(15:31):
And with studies using sauna four times a week, thirty
minute sessions, we see a reduced risk for all terminal disease.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
That's another thing about good health. Saunus and I'm sorry
to interrupt you. You have all the data. You have
all the data. When you go into the showroom and
you talk about the saunas, you not only get to
see the good health saun us, you get to see
all the competitors saun us and you can literally take
them apart and show them what's going on. I was
amazed at that, and the other thing was amazing. I'm
start sorry, it's all right, But the other thing was
(16:00):
amazed at is there's some really I'm just gonna tell
you guys don't have the best looking sauna. There's a
lot of real fancy glass stores and curved and this
and that, but when you take them apart, it's junk. Yep.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
There's particle board, there's plywood. What they what a lot
of these saunas do is they make that back wall
out of plywood or particle board, and it's it's paper thin,
starts warping right away. But then also the glues to
hold that particle board together off gases, which isn't good
for us.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
You can see all of this at your.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
Yeah, I can show it to anybody that comes in there.
Because people ask me, what's the difference between a sauna
that's twenty five hundred dollars and a sauna that's eight
thousand dollars. And there's some companies out there that make
saunas look really pretty, like you said, the nice glass,
the wood finish, all that type of stuff, but when
you go in there, you don't even sweat. They use
the weakest eaters on the market, and so and people
(16:58):
get all worried about the wood and stuf stuff like that.
And you want the wood to look pretty, and you
want it to be solid, sturdy, and that type of stuff,
but that's not what gives you the health benefits. The
heating system and the infrared is what gives us the
health benefits, make us feel better and reduce our risk
for a lot of diseases. And that's what we center
our sauna around, is start with the heating system. So
(17:19):
why are you buying a sauna, Well, I'm buying a
sauna to improve my heart health, my blood pressure, I'm
fighting depression, anxiety, I'm trying to detoxify my body's pain
relief stuff like that. Well, that stuff doesn't come from
the wood. That comes from the heaters. And that's why
we use the best heaters in the market, and we
use the best technology in the market. They're the hottest
(17:40):
infrared heaters. They heat up the fastest and they penetrate
the deepest to give us the most and best health
benefits that we're looking for.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Eric, if you go to a chiropractor, you go to
the doctor with inflammation. Many times they'll put you under
for lack of better terms, it used to be a
heat lamp. Now they have different but they do introduce
heat into that for healing. So why would it be
such a jump for people to realize that, Hey, if
I can get in there and it can get deep
into my tissues. The other thing is is, you know,
good gut health is important for elimination of poisons. But
(18:12):
skin is really a much bigger filter than the gun,
isn't it.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
Oh yeah, it's I don't think people know that it's
the largest organ in our body. So uh, people, firefighters
use it for detoxification. Factory workers farmers are very are
very famous for buying saunas to help get the glyo
fade out and the round up.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
And how cool is that? Yeah, I didn't even think
about farmers, but you're right.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
I love working in Iowa. The Moine Clake. We do
Clay County Fair in the northwest corner of Iowa, and
you get these people that come in and they they
look like they have a don't have a dollar, but
yet they own some of the biggest farms in the country,
if not world, right out of Iowa.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
They already know about the sauna stuff. They want to
know about the they want the saunas yep, yep.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
And they come in and you know what's funny is
when I'll be sitting at the table at Clay County
writing up a deal for a farmer or somebody out there,
and they'll be like, well, when you guys show up
to install, do I what do they need me to do?
What can I help within the installation And nowhere else
other than parts of Wisconsin and Iowa does do that
(19:17):
customer actually want to install the sauna instead of our
own guys. Yeah, so it's good hard working people.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Absolutely. You know it's funny to me too. Your story
is as a volunteer fight or not as a firefighter,
are actually a full time yep? You guys go in
there to get rid of the car sentigens from the smoke.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
Yeah, that's where this all started for me like eleven
years ago. Ten years ago, we were looking for ways
of reducing our risk for cancer. A couple of people
had cancer at the firehouse, and we did our research,
found out about the benefits of sweating and infrared saunas specifically,
and we went around to different places looked at them,
and then we ended up buying a good health sauna
(19:58):
for our firehouse. And then the first time I used it,
I was hooked. Actually, the first time I used it,
I was like, was that the sauna that made me
feel so good?
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
So then the second so the second time I used it,
then I knew I had to have one. And fast
forward a decade and here we are.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
You know, interestingly, I don't know if people know this,
but you have a ton of professional sports players that
are not only using your product, but they are endorsing it.
Oh yeah, And you know when you think about that,
what do they know? Why are they why would they
be doing that? Right?
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Well, I guess the most famous one that I like
to talk about is Adam Thielen with the Minnesota Vikings.
He had a cheap infrared son at his house in
Woodbury and then he walked into our Mall of America
store and he's like, well, I need another one for
my house in Charlotte. And so so we installed it
in uh in his house in Charlotte, and then he
(20:59):
like when I brought him over to the sauna and
showed it to him, he couldn't believe it. He was like, Caitlin,
come here, look at this thing. Look at all these heaters,
look at the floor heater, look at how hot this
thing is. And we do a lot of yeah, oh yeah,
yes he does. But what what stands out about Adam
is that he had a cheap one, so we understand
how much better ours is and the effectiveness and the recovery.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Yeah yeah, okay, so if you have questions, you can
you can give somebody that endorsement.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Oh yeah, CJ.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Hamm.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
The fall back with the Vikings, I mean there's a
lot of there's a lot of athletes that actually don't endorse.
They just bought the sauna from us. But I know
the Carolina Panthers head coach and gm uh there's some
Waukee Bucks that don't endorse, but they have our sauna.
Same thing with Packers.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
When I was researching cancer, there were there were a
lot of things that were proven and you know, like cannabis, oil,
a lot of things that I think Big Farmer would
like us not to know about. And saunas were another one.
And I had been way before this. I had been
(22:05):
using sauna, so part of that may have been why
I was able to kill what I had. So when
you think about that, another thing that I hate to
bring this up, but I think it's important. I read
a study yesterday that came out from Big Pharma themselves
(22:26):
that since the COVID shots and boosters, cancer has increased.
Do you know how much it's been. I do not.
I don't know how you even do. I thoughte hundred
percent was the most you could get. I read a
thing that's at twenty two hundred and some percent more
cancer since the Now they're not admitting as the shots.
(22:47):
But you know, to many people out there who did
get the JAB and are still believing in that stuff,
it's a good thing to have this holistic resource in
case they're right. Right. So, if you're believed in and
I don't, I don't judge people based on that. You
can do whatever you want to do. But if you
did get the COVID shot and you did get the boosters.
(23:08):
It's probably not gonna hurt you to have a sauna
to you know, whatever good they do is great. But
there's always another side to that, right with everything. It's
like round up gets rid of the bugs, but it
causes cancer. And like you said, the farmers know this,
they know they're knee deep into it, and they're buying.
Farmers are buying saunas. Right.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
Oh yeah, so farmers, like I said, firefighters, factory workers,
anybody that's exposed to toxins or chemicals. But the cool
thing about it is is long, it's all. It's everywhere.
It's in our food, it's in our air, it's in
our water. You can't get away from it. There's lead
in the in the ice in Antarctica. So uh. And
I was just came from the Grand Canyon, which you
(23:51):
can see you look across the whole canyon and it's
all pollution. And yeah, and there's no big major cities.
Then if you read about it, it says, yes, yeah,
well you can see the haze that goes right through
and you read about it. It comes from the big
cities in America, it comes from even from China, it comes.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
From all these fires in Canada, those are our sentigens.
I don't care what people say. You know, yeah, breathing
and small. Well as a firefighter, you guys knew that
way ahead of everybody else.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
I can't believe. I mean, years ago, firemen used to
run in the building without the protective equipment at all.
That's I guess the technology wasn't out for the SCBAs.
But uh yeah, nowadays, it's when we get back to
the station. I mean we're washing our gear, we're taking showers,
we're sawning or.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
It's important to get that off right away too, right, yeah,
because it was your skin's going to take it in.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Cancer rates were through the roof with firemen years ago
because we never washed our gear. It was cool to
have dirty gear. So yeah, you showed how much you worked,
how hard you worked. So then we realized, well, let's
wash the gear, and cancer rates dropped, except throat cancer
stayed the same. Then we realized we we weren't washing
our hoods that cover our neck. So then we wash
the hoods and then throw cancer dropped, and then and
(25:06):
then now people are putting firehouses. I mean all of
Saint Paul, Minnesota has our saunas and all their fire stations.
Minneapolis is in the process of putting our sun in
all twenty of their stations. Chicago's looking at putting in fifty.
They just got their first sauna from US Buffalo, New York.
There's at this point we have over three hundred and
fifty fire stations across the country.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Well, you guys are not only you're you're the big
noise in the business. I mean that's who they're coming
to as good Health saunas. Yep, ye, So they're educator.
I'm sure that there's research being done. They educate themselves.
They want to mitigate the cancer risk, and so they're
looking at where are we going to get the biggest
bang for as government? Well not government doesn't always do that,
But I know you guys aren't paying off the government
(25:48):
to get yourself. So the holistic thing, I think people
are buying the whole hol You know, you and I
have been in it for years. We know what were
But the reality of it is, I think people are
buying it now. They're starting to understand.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
Yeah, well it's like you use all.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
Grag's wave in his hand. Does that mean we only
have two minutes left?
Speaker 3 (26:09):
Okay, well you put it invest in a seven thousand
dollars sauna instead of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
In cancer research. Yeah. Yeah, Hey, Eric, it's always a pleasure.
We always run out of time too soon on this
show when we're talking because there's just so many things
I like to talk about. How it's related to remodeling is,
like I said, if you're doing a project, this is
one of the things that you should consider putting in
every you know people are putting in the blower tubs
and all of that stuff. A sauna is a good
(26:37):
addition to a wreck room or a master bath. The
health benefits, we don't have enough time to talk about them,
but they can come into your give your address out.
Speaker 3 (26:47):

Here is award winning remodeling expert Nick Kerzner.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
W S Talk eleven thirty wis and I'm so excited
today and I bet you are too, because your favorite
show of the day is on Sunday Mornings with the
Construction Guru. I have a returning guest I have and
we were trying to think of a moniker for him
this morning, but he said, I have one, and it's
a sweat fanatic, Eric Kralowitz from Good hell Saunas. How
(00:43):
you doing, man, I'm doing well. Thanks for having me on.
I always enjoy coming on here with you, Nick, I
love it too. It and you know it's been a while.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
I've been busy. You've been busy.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
You've had a lot of shows.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Yeah, yeah, you know what you We were talking and
your business is insane, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Oh yeah, it's it's.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
I mean, since the last time we talked, it's gotten better.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
It just keeps growing and growing. Throughout the entire country.
And business is good. And when you have a really
good product that people enjoy and it improves their health,
makes them feel a lot better, and you treat your
customers right, and business growth, and that's what we're seeing.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
And that's not what you're seeing out of so many companies.
You know, I I'm seeing strictly everybody's running by and
I get businesses, business profit and law statements in that
customer service has become kind of a sideline for many companies.
You know, it's like, oh, push one for this, this
call is going to be recorded, all of that kind
of stuff. And you like us, you guys, And I
(01:45):
guess I should. I should describe our connection. We met
at a show many years ago talking about that's where
we met right at the show.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
Yeah, we were at NAI right after COVID, I think
like the first year back.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
And we started talking and saw us weren't new to
me because I've had one for ages, but you explained
a lot of things about saunas and health and how
it all falls into play, and so we got connected
because we have customers that have installed good health saunas.
The cool thing about it is we'll make a little
I don't know, is it niche or is it niche?
Speaker 3 (02:20):
I like to say niche, yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Because niche makes me sound like I should have a scarf.
But yeah, we'll make a little niche and install a
good health sauna in there. And I love that because
if you know, if you have to service it, or
you want to take it with you when you leave.
Because that's another thing about it. You put this in
your house if you move to another, so they can
go with you.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Oh, it's very easy to take apart and put together.
So it's just eight pieces. It's four walls, a ceiling
of floor, a bench and a bench support and everything,
or all the walls just buckle together on the outside corners.
So if somebody has never done it before, it usually
takes them about an hour. Us that do it all
the time, we have it done in fifteen minutes. And
(03:01):
I move mine twice. I'm on my third house with
my same sauna.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Yeah, because they last I mean we talked about thousands
of hours.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Yeah, fifty thousand hours up to one hundred thousand hours
of use. So nobody's going to reach the life expectancy
of the sauna.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
So the other thing that that's cool about good health
Saunas is their infrared, so it's not as involved in installation.
It's basically put it together, push it in the.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Niche, and plug it in right and you're done exactly.
So there's no venting, no water lines, no drains, no filters.
It's literally just a free standing unit that plugs into
an outlet. And they're all normal one hundred and twenty
bolt circuits too, so it's super easy, uh, maintenance free
other than putting towels down and soaking up your sweat.
(03:53):
And that's one of the that's one of the reasons
why people enjoy using it so much. Is it something
that improves their health, but they don't have to sit
there and maintain this thing years and years.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
There is some exciting news for you guys. You mentioned
it and I just saw it yesterday when I was
looking for it. You got a brand new office.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
Building, Yeah, we did. I just moved into it last week,
so it's a brand news.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Now. Is your Is your office overlooking the freeway? Yes? Cool,
that's kind of a cool view. You get the action
and you know when you're at I wouldn't want it
at my house, but at work it's kind of cool
because it keeps you rolling right.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Yeah, And it's right across from the movie theater on
nine ninety four, the Majestic, And it's a thirty seven
thousand square foot warehouse with offices. And we still have
our showroom on Bluemount Road at Master Spots of Southern Wisconsin.
But then we have good House Sauna's national office right
on the rail road in the town of Brookfield.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Okay, give the address out. You don't know it yet.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
I do not know the warehouse office yet.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
So so the truth is it is brand new and
that's where you're eventually your showroom is going to be
for the saunas right when you get everything, well.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
There's going to be a showroom there. But we're going
to have two showrooms because we have the hot Tub
store on Blue Mount that stain and a lot of
people come in to look at hot tub saunas, bi chemicals,
stuff like that, and that's where we've been for many
many years and where customers know where to find us.
But if you want to come to the main office
and where you could also see all of our competitor
(05:27):
saunas that we have there.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Now we're going to talk about that a little bit more.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
That's that's going to be on de rail Road, so
they're literally two minutes apart from each other.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Yeah, I'm gonna plug master Spas a little bit too.
This isn't the master Spas of the old days. This
is this is a new, new company, newer and I
have a master master Spa. And the reason I'm saying
that is because what's really cool about that showroom office
area there is you walk in, there's somebody there. I
(05:59):
was able to get some parts that I needed, some jets,
the filters are all there, so it's not like you
have to order online. You know, a spy is something
for me. I mean I've had I've had. This isn't
my first rodeo. I've had saunas and spas forever and
I tell people they'll say, well, but you know, after
a while, you get sick of the sauna. I'm sauning
(06:21):
two to three times a week minimum, and through summer too,
so that's nobs. And I do shut down the spa
in the summer when it's hot. But we fired that
bad boy up nationally and I've been in it three
times in the last so it is something that you
know you're gonna use. It's not like I also have
(06:42):
a Peloton bike. It's a great place to hang my
dress shirts.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
I know exactly what you're saying. And I'll talk to
people when they're thinking about buying a sauna and stuff.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Like that, and.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
One of the worries that they have is the like,
is this going to be like the treadmill we bought
and then now it sits there and we used it, or.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
The massage chair. Yep, that's another one.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
And the cool thing about using a sauna is it's
not like a vitamin. You're not using your sauna because
people tell you it's good for you. You're using your
sauna because you feel like a million bucks. You know
it's good for you, absolutely true. And then it's not
like a treadmill where I'm like, oh man, I got
to go run on a treadmill for twenty minutes. I've
learned to enjoy the heat, enjoy the sweating process, but
it's how I feel afterwards. That's why I use it
(07:28):
every day, and for what it does for me, I'll
use for the rest of my life, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
I think one thing that I would share in my
own experience is that when I started using the sauna,
it becomes completely unbearable. After about ten minutes, it's hard
to breathe, it's hard, you're sweating, it's uncomfortable. You got
to get through that first phase. For me, I did.
I had to get through that first phase. It takes
(07:53):
about thirty days, right for me, it did. Now I
can sit in there for an hour, in there long
enough that my wife will come up outguar, are you okay?
You know, because she doesn't use it as much, so
it has more of an impact on her. But you
build up I don't know what you what you build up,
but you build up this tolerance to the heat, and
(08:14):
when you sweat a lot and you get out and
you take a nice shower, it's like a completely refreshing experience.
And I learned that because I used to go to
vic Tanny as a younger man, and I would go
into the sauna and I always felt great. Sometimes I
just go there to use a saunay. The downside of
that is so did everybody else, So you're sitting in
everybody else's bodily fluids. When you have your own sauna,
(08:36):
it's it's really cool.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
One of the things I'm seeing in the market ever
since COVID is you know how they shut down gyms
and saunas during COVID, So what did people do? People
are building home gyms throughout the country in their house
because there and what they'll say. They'll come in the
booth or they'll call me and they'll say, Hey, I'm
building a home gym. I canceled my gym membership. But
the one thing I don't have is the sauna. That
(09:00):
had the sauna and I need to put a sa
on and I got the perfect spot in my home
gym to put it, and now I'm looking for one.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
And you know, the other thing that I like about
your situation is you have different size saunas. So even
if you have a small basement, I've seen him in garages.
You don't have to if you don't have a very
large home. You can put this thing in your basement.
You can dress it up a little bit with the
walls around it. There's a radio in it. Yeah, very cool. Matt.
(09:27):
Matt started out that way before we did his his basement,
he had his sauna in the garage. He was using
it and just moved it when it was time, yep,
And I know I'll call him up because we're still working.
We're still working on MAT's house. Now. Wow, Aquatica is
putting in a water feature, doing a by the way,
gorgeous job. You got to stop by his you know
that front hill. He's got a waterfall coming down. Now. Well,
(09:49):
then when you go into his finished basement, there's a
niche or a niche, depending on how you want to
say it, where we installed the good hell sauna. And
I'll call him up and I'll talk to me. Go.
I'm in a on it right now. The other day
I was there. He's out of town. I was doing
some research on the rear deck we're going to be doing.
And he has literally like a computer stand on the
outside of the window. It almost looks like it was
(10:11):
made for it. I don't know if you had something
to do with that, but I think he's working out
of there. So you know, he works from home. He's
an IT guy, and I think he goes in there
and he can work from there, and he's got the
screen right outside the right outside the window, and I
you know.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Oh yeah, I have a lot of customers that that
work from home and they'll work and the sauna. Now me,
I'm I'm guilty of probably watching YouTube on my phone
in there for about ten fifteen minutes. But then this
the phone will overheat and I got to throw it
outside the song.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
I know if you were going to say that or not,
but you're right, I've done it too. I'm I'll be
at marketplace looking for something where it's a great time.
You know, sometimes I do scripture in there. I'll be
looking at that and it's like all of a sudden,
the phone it'll it'll say, you know, emergency has got
that exclamation point once.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
Once the phone starts acting, it starts lagging. I know,
I gotta get this thing out right away.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Well, and you know, in mine up north, I thought
about making like a little hole in the wall where
I could put it out. You know, it's outside with
a little piece of plexiglass store on there. Because then
because I listened to my music through the phone too.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Yeah, yep, there's bluetooth speakers in there that you can
listen to tunes. There's chromotherapy lights that cycle through different
colors and and we get a bit different benefits from
different colors. And I like to do some easy stretches
just some neck circles, shoulder circles, stuff like that, because
I like to use the first thing in the morning.
So I like to say, I get the fuzzies off,
(11:33):
and it's a great way to wake up for the date.
Now it's a good time to use it, I would say,
this morning, of course I did. I came straight from
the sauna every day.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
So don't you think that's I mean, you know, let's
not kid ourselves. You're you're very, very successful at this.
You manage the whole sauna m h side of your business.
I think that part of the reason and why you
are so successful and so believable is that you really
buy into what you do because you're doing it. Oh yeah,
(12:08):
and I know that if you ran for president tomorrow
and one, you would still be taking a sauna every morning,
wouldn't you.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Because there's nothing out there that makes me feel as
good other than maybe good quality sleep, because nothing affects
our mood tomorrow more than the quality of sleep we
get tonight. The other thing is I have to get
a deep sweat. And I'm not talking a little trickle
going for a run outside and getting a little damp
around your neck. I'm talking full blown where it's raining
off your body. That's when you feel like a million bucks.
(12:35):
And that's because of the endorphins our body releases when
we have to sweat, and then the reduction of inflammation
in our body makes our body feel so much better.
I live the lifestyle. That's why I'm successful, is because
this is what I do. I use it every day
and I will for the rest of my life.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Eric, let's take a short break. When we come back,
let's talk a little bit. I want to talk to
you a little bit about the frequency thing because I've
learned a few things since we talked. I always think
of you when I come up with these health things
because you're always explaining shock, proteins and all of that,
and it's amazing what you learn. And then it does
dovetail into other holistic remedies. When you start sawning it,
(13:14):
it really does you start thinking, this makes me what
if I did that? All right, well, so we'll talk
about that right after break. All right, News Talk eleven
thirty WISN. When we return after these great messages, News
Talk eleven thirty WISN returning from break, It's me Nick
(13:36):
the construction Guru. I'm excited to be here today. I
do want to plug my company real quick, if you
don't mind, Eric, If you're thinking about a remodeling project,
I always say you should get three opinions. Make one
of those ours. We'd love to come out and talk
to you about a new kitchen, bathroom, wreck room, or
even if it's kind of a reface or a TLC project,
maybe new countertops for your kitchen. Kurzner. There is no
(13:58):
job too big or small. We do them good or
not at all. So give us a call at two
six two five six seven twenty five hundred at Kurzony.
We will treat your home as if it were our own.
I have a returning guest. He's a friend of mine.
He's taught me a lot about holistic health. As many
of you probably know, I've talked about it in the past.
I am a cancer survivor and most of my treatment
(14:21):
was holistic. As I learned, and I have been drawn
to several people who are in that line of work,
and Eric Cralobitz is one of them. I met him
at a show. We were talking about Saunas and he
explained to me, there's so much to know, and I
think that. You know, people look at it and go, oh,
you're going there in sweat. Now there's let's talk about
(14:43):
some of the real health benefits that come out of it,
the different wavelengths, why the infrared is important, what it does.
I mean, you're and you've told me this, you're getting
a surge of people who are cancer survivors and very
interested in sauna because when you get that diagnosis, you
start doing a ton of research. Oh yeah, and all
of a sudden you start looking at things. I mean,
(15:05):
you have a lot of people who are cancer survivors
that have sawn us right.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Oh yeah, big time. So we get we'll get people
that you know, when you get diagnosed with that, it's
a big scary word, and people will do anything that
they possibly can to defeat the cancer yep, and reduce it.
And one of the benefits of using a sauna is
the heat shock proteins that our body releases when we're
in there, which is repairing damaged DNA and damage cells.
(15:31):
And with studies using sauna four times a week, thirty
minute sessions, we see a reduced risk for all terminal disease.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
That's another thing about good health. Saunus and I'm sorry
to interrupt you. You have all the data. You have
all the data. When you go into the showroom and
you talk about the saunas, you not only get to
see the good health saun us, you get to see
all the competitors saun us and you can literally take
them apart and show them what's going on. I was
amazed at that, and the other thing was amazing. I'm
start sorry, it's all right, But the other thing was
(16:00):
amazed at is there's some really I'm just gonna tell
you guys don't have the best looking sauna. There's a
lot of real fancy glass stores and curved and this
and that, but when you take them apart, it's junk. Yep.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
There's particle board, there's plywood. What they what a lot
of these saunas do is they make that back wall
out of plywood or particle board, and it's it's paper thin,
starts warping right away. But then also the glues to
hold that particle board together off gases, which isn't good
for us.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
You can see all of this at your.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
Yeah, I can show it to anybody that comes in there.
Because people ask me, what's the difference between a sauna
that's twenty five hundred dollars and a sauna that's eight
thousand dollars. And there's some companies out there that make
saunas look really pretty, like you said, the nice glass,
the wood finish, all that type of stuff, but when
you go in there, you don't even sweat. They use
the weakest eaters on the market, and so and people
(16:58):
get all worried about the wood and stuf stuff like that.
And you want the wood to look pretty, and you
want it to be solid, sturdy, and that type of stuff,
but that's not what gives you the health benefits. The
heating system and the infrared is what gives us the
health benefits, make us feel better and reduce our risk
for a lot of diseases. And that's what we center
our sauna around, is start with the heating system. So
(17:19):
why are you buying a sauna, Well, I'm buying a
sauna to improve my heart health, my blood pressure, I'm
fighting depression, anxiety, I'm trying to detoxify my body's pain
relief stuff like that. Well, that stuff doesn't come from
the wood. That comes from the heaters. And that's why
we use the best heaters in the market, and we
use the best technology in the market. They're the hottest
(17:40):
infrared heaters. They heat up the fastest and they penetrate
the deepest to give us the most and best health
benefits that we're looking for.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Eric, if you go to a chiropractor, you go to
the doctor with inflammation. Many times they'll put you under
for lack of better terms, it used to be a
heat lamp. Now they have different but they do introduce
heat into that for healing. So why would it be
such a jump for people to realize that, Hey, if
I can get in there and it can get deep
into my tissues. The other thing is is, you know,
good gut health is important for elimination of poisons. But
(18:12):
skin is really a much bigger filter than the gun,
isn't it.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
Oh yeah, it's I don't think people know that it's
the largest organ in our body. So uh, people, firefighters
use it for detoxification. Factory workers farmers are very are
very famous for buying saunas to help get the glyo
fade out and the round up.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
And how cool is that? Yeah, I didn't even think
about farmers, but you're right.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
I love working in Iowa. The Moine Clake. We do
Clay County Fair in the northwest corner of Iowa, and
you get these people that come in and they they
look like they have a don't have a dollar, but
yet they own some of the biggest farms in the country,
if not world, right out of Iowa.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
They already know about the sauna stuff. They want to
know about the they want the saunas yep, yep.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
And they come in and you know what's funny is
when I'll be sitting at the table at Clay County
writing up a deal for a farmer or somebody out there,
and they'll be like, well, when you guys show up
to install, do I what do they need me to do?
What can I help within the installation And nowhere else
other than parts of Wisconsin and Iowa does do that
(19:17):
customer actually want to install the sauna instead of our
own guys. Yeah, so it's good hard working people.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Absolutely. You know it's funny to me too. Your story
is as a volunteer fight or not as a firefighter,
are actually a full time yep? You guys go in
there to get rid of the car sentigens from the smoke.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
Yeah, that's where this all started for me like eleven
years ago. Ten years ago, we were looking for ways
of reducing our risk for cancer. A couple of people
had cancer at the firehouse, and we did our research,
found out about the benefits of sweating and infrared saunas specifically,
and we went around to different places looked at them,
and then we ended up buying a good health sauna
(19:58):
for our firehouse. And then the first time I used it,
I was hooked. Actually, the first time I used it,
I was like, was that the sauna that made me
feel so good?
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
So then the second so the second time I used it,
then I knew I had to have one. And fast
forward a decade and here we are.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
You know, interestingly, I don't know if people know this,
but you have a ton of professional sports players that
are not only using your product, but they are endorsing it.
Oh yeah, And you know when you think about that,
what do they know? Why are they why would they
be doing that? Right?
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Well, I guess the most famous one that I like
to talk about is Adam Thielen with the Minnesota Vikings.
He had a cheap infrared son at his house in
Woodbury and then he walked into our Mall of America
store and he's like, well, I need another one for
my house in Charlotte. And so so we installed it
in uh in his house in Charlotte, and then he
(20:59):
like when I brought him over to the sauna and
showed it to him, he couldn't believe it. He was like, Caitlin,
come here, look at this thing. Look at all these heaters,
look at the floor heater, look at how hot this
thing is. And we do a lot of yeah, oh yeah,
yes he does. But what what stands out about Adam
is that he had a cheap one, so we understand
how much better ours is and the effectiveness and the recovery.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Yeah yeah, okay, so if you have questions, you can
you can give somebody that endorsement.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Oh yeah, CJ.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Hamm.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
The fall back with the Vikings, I mean there's a
lot of there's a lot of athletes that actually don't endorse.
They just bought the sauna from us. But I know
the Carolina Panthers head coach and gm uh there's some
Waukee Bucks that don't endorse, but they have our sauna.
Same thing with Packers.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
When I was researching cancer, there were there were a
lot of things that were proven and you know, like cannabis, oil,
a lot of things that I think Big Farmer would
like us not to know about. And saunas were another one.
And I had been way before this. I had been
(22:05):
using sauna, so part of that may have been why
I was able to kill what I had. So when
you think about that, another thing that I hate to
bring this up, but I think it's important. I read
a study yesterday that came out from Big Pharma themselves
(22:26):
that since the COVID shots and boosters, cancer has increased.
Do you know how much it's been. I do not.
I don't know how you even do. I thoughte hundred
percent was the most you could get. I read a
thing that's at twenty two hundred and some percent more
cancer since the Now they're not admitting as the shots.
(22:47):
But you know, to many people out there who did
get the JAB and are still believing in that stuff,
it's a good thing to have this holistic resource in
case they're right. Right. So, if you're believed in and
I don't, I don't judge people based on that. You
can do whatever you want to do. But if you
did get the COVID shot and you did get the boosters.
(23:08):
It's probably not gonna hurt you to have a sauna
to you know, whatever good they do is great. But
there's always another side to that, right with everything. It's
like round up gets rid of the bugs, but it
causes cancer. And like you said, the farmers know this,
they know they're knee deep into it, and they're buying.
Farmers are buying saunas. Right.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
Oh yeah, so farmers, like I said, firefighters, factory workers,
anybody that's exposed to toxins or chemicals. But the cool
thing about it is is long, it's all. It's everywhere.
It's in our food, it's in our air, it's in
our water. You can't get away from it. There's lead
in the in the ice in Antarctica. So uh. And
I was just came from the Grand Canyon, which you
(23:51):
can see you look across the whole canyon and it's
all pollution. And yeah, and there's no big major cities.
Then if you read about it, it says, yes, yeah,
well you can see the haze that goes right through
and you read about it. It comes from the big
cities in America, it comes from even from China, it comes.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
From all these fires in Canada, those are our sentigens.
I don't care what people say. You know, yeah, breathing
and small. Well as a firefighter, you guys knew that
way ahead of everybody else.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
I can't believe. I mean, years ago, firemen used to
run in the building without the protective equipment at all.
That's I guess the technology wasn't out for the SCBAs.
But uh yeah, nowadays, it's when we get back to
the station. I mean we're washing our gear, we're taking showers,
we're sawning or.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
It's important to get that off right away too, right, yeah,
because it was your skin's going to take it in.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Cancer rates were through the roof with firemen years ago
because we never washed our gear. It was cool to
have dirty gear. So yeah, you showed how much you worked,
how hard you worked. So then we realized, well, let's
wash the gear, and cancer rates dropped, except throat cancer
stayed the same. Then we realized we we weren't washing
our hoods that cover our neck. So then we wash
the hoods and then throw cancer dropped, and then and
(25:06):
then now people are putting firehouses. I mean all of
Saint Paul, Minnesota has our saunas and all their fire stations.
Minneapolis is in the process of putting our sun in
all twenty of their stations. Chicago's looking at putting in fifty.
They just got their first sauna from US Buffalo, New York.
There's at this point we have over three hundred and
fifty fire stations across the country.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Well, you guys are not only you're you're the big
noise in the business. I mean that's who they're coming
to as good Health saunas. Yep, ye, So they're educator.
I'm sure that there's research being done. They educate themselves.
They want to mitigate the cancer risk, and so they're
looking at where are we going to get the biggest
bang for as government? Well not government doesn't always do that,
But I know you guys aren't paying off the government
(25:48):
to get yourself. So the holistic thing, I think people
are buying the whole hol You know, you and I
have been in it for years. We know what were
But the reality of it is, I think people are
buying it now. They're starting to understand.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
Yeah, well it's like you use all.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
Grag's wave in his hand. Does that mean we only
have two minutes left?
Speaker 3 (26:09):
Okay, well you put it invest in a seven thousand
dollars sauna instead of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Speaker 2 (26:16):

one of the things that you should consider putting in
every you know people are putting in the blower tubs

(26:37):
addition to a wreck room or a master bath. The
