Spa guidelines

We are going for a healthy and restorative atmosphere which connects us back to ourselves, to others and to our bodies. We have developed these guidelines to help facilitate that goal and to keep the community times peaceful for everyone. - Always take a cleansing shower at the beginning of your spa session and each time before entering the hot tub. Never go sweaty from the sauna into the hot tub. - Be respectful, friendly and courteous to all persons. When possible make room for others to join the space. - We believe touch and massage are vital to human healing, but please reserve sexual contact for another place. - Be considerate of your time block, be changed and leaving the property at the end of your time block. - No alcohol, drugs or glass in the spa space. - Electronic devices are not allowed during your visit. Please keep your phones, ipads etc. in your personal belongings. See the FAQ page on the website for more details. - Minimum age is 13 with their responsible adult during their visit. - Please keep your conversations at a low volume out of respect for neighbors and other guests, after 9 pm is quiet hours. ie. whisper only - Remove any personal belongings and used towels after you are finished in the spa area and leave it welcoming for the next person. - Listen to your body’s heat limits and drink lots of water! - Enjoy your time here!
