Invigorate your body and support detoxification with a pre-treatment steam followed by a cold plunge and a period of rest and relaxation. If a cold plunge feels daunting, take a shower that begins tepid and turn to cold at the end. Be sure to drink plenty of water as you move through the circuits.
After your wrap, enjoy a leisurely post-treatment soak in one of our warm pools, followed by a cool shower. Lastly, enjoy a short sauna to dry off and seal in the warmth and vitality from the day. Take a moment in the sauna to breathe, experience stillness, and set intentions for new self-care routines.

Wholeness Healing
50 minutes
This balancing and restorative energy session is about recognizing and supporting your body’s own self-healing ability. The therapist uses light, gentle contacts to clear the major joints of the body, and then encourage balance between the chakras (energy centers) that are located along the spine, and which align with major endocrine glands. Clients describe this work as deeply relaxing and grounding, and have found it can be useful with emotional processing or when they have been feeling “scattered.” This session can be done with the client comfortably clothed.
Reiki

The two Japanese words Rei and Ki mean “spiritually guided” and “life force energy.” Simply put, Reiki is energy healing for relaxation and stress reduction. As you rest in comfortable clothing on a massage table, the Reiki Master uses light touch to help your body heal itself. Pain, stress and tension melt away as Reiki energy is shared in a safe, healing way that soothes, nourishes, and relaxes you from head-to-toe.
