HÄLSA Spa

HÄLSA is the Swedish word for HEALTH and HÄLSA Spa is a health spa in the European tradition, where taking time dedicated to deep relaxation is considered both a natural and essential part of a healthy life.

The idea that relaxation is essential to good health is an ancient one. Throughout history and across cultures, people have visited spas seeking respite and restoration, experiencing the natural curative powers of mineral waters, saunas, massage, and other healing treatments.

At HÄLSA, we are using the term “spa” in this traditional sense, a place of sanctuary dedicated to healing body, mind, and, spirit.

The modern world today is buzzing with activity. We’re constantly bombarded with light, noise, and information and it can be extremely hard to wind down, take a break, and just relax.

At HÄLSA, we believe that taking time away from our daily routines, shutting out sensation and reconnecting inwards allows us to step back into the world refreshed, restored, and better able to cope with the stresses of modern life.

By offering a time and space devoted to deep relaxation, we hope to empower people to live happy, healthy lives.

HÄLSA Spa's interior is influenced by Scandinavian design, a movement characterized by simplicity, minimalism, and functionality. Beauty is found expressed through clean lines, radiated through light color, and evoked with inspirations of nature and the ample use of wood.

We wholeheartedly believe in the core principles of Scandinavian design: good design should be accessible to all and beauty and functionality should go hand in hand.

HÄLSA features:

4 Floatation Therapy Rooms - featuring 2 double-sized Ocean Float Rooms and 2 state of the art space-age Genesis Float Pods

What is Floatation Therapy? A modern take on the ancient practice of "taking the waters," flotation therapy offers tremendous benefits for total health. While floating effortlessly on just 10" of salt-saturated water the body naturally unwinds and with the body completely relaxed, the mind follows. A reset for your body and mind. A truly transformative experience.
