Healing Whisk Treatment
Healing Whisk Treatment is an age-old form of Finnish folk therapy that unites the wellbeing of body and mind. Warmth, touch, and the scents of nature come together to create a deeply relaxing, multi-sensory experience. The Healing Whisk Treatment is offered as an individual treatment.
How the Treatment Proceeds
Before the treatment, a short introductory conversation takes place to discuss your wishes and explain the stages of the session. The treatment begins with a calm warm-up in the sauna's löyly (steam), after which whisks are placed over your face to deepen the sensory experience.
During the treatment, I use a variety of different whisks and techniques: wafting warm air, gentle whisking movements, steaming, pressing, and pouring water. The whole body is treated on both sides, with special attention given to the large muscle groups and the soles of the feet — according to an old belief, it is through the feet that a person connects with the power of the earth.
At the end of the treatment, all the whisks used are laid over your body. You are welcome to linger and enjoy the scents of the forest, the warmth, and the silence, and a drink is served afterward.
The whisks used vary with the seasons: birch is refreshing, juniper is cleansing, and linden is calming. Finnish flowers and herbs are also used according to the turning of the year.
The treatment supports:
Calming of the nervous system and deep relaxation
Muscle recovery and improved circulation
A sense of connection to your own body and to nature
The sauna temperature is approximately 65°C (149°F). Heat and steam are adjusted individually throughout the treatment.
Please bring: a towel, a water bottle, and, if you wish, a swimsuit. It's a good idea to start hydrating well the day before.
The treatment can be carried out in the saunas of local sauna entrepreneurs, in the client's own sauna, or in another bookable sauna.
