About
Sauna Rituals is a calming, therapist-guided treatment designed to help you reconnect with nature through the healing powers of the sea. We use seaweed, sea salt, and intentional, mindful practices to bring a sense of renewal and clarity, leaving you feeling restored and invigorated.
Here's what awaits you:
Sauna Warm-Up Our therapist will begin by guiding you into a warm sauna, where essential oils create a tranquil atmosphere that promotes relaxation. The sauna’s gentle heat helps opening your pores, allowing the skin to absorb the rich ocean minerals introduced in the steps to come.
Fresh Seaweed Serum Application With the skin warmed and softened, our therapist will apply a fresh seaweed serum across your body. This nutrient-rich serum, derived from the sea, absorbs into the skin as it is gently massaged it in, promoting deep hydration and nourishment.
Artisanal Seaweed Scrub An artisanal scrub, blending mineral-rich sea salt with hand-harvested seaweed, is then applied using smooth, circular motions. Our Seaweed Scrub gives you a gentle exfoliates of the skin, removing impurities and invigorating circulation. The fresh, mineral scent of seaweed fills the air, enhancing the immersive, nature-inspired experience.
Cold Plunge or Shower To complete the ritual, our therapist will guide you to a cold plunge or a refreshing shower. This final step invigorates the body and mind, sealing in the ocean's healing benefits and leaving you with a sense of clarity, revitalization, and balance.
Why Experience the Sauna Rituals? With our therapist’s expert guidance, you are invited to let go of stress, embrace the restorative properties of the sea, and feel deeply reconnected with the natural world. This ritual is perfect for anyone seeking a holistic approach to wellness, where each step is crafted to bring balance, calm, and a renewed sense of well-being.
