Healing Sauna Whisking is an ancient Finnish folk healing practice – an almost forgotten tradition that connects the wellbeing of body and mind. This gentle and holistic treatment relaxes, refreshes, and restores your connection to nature.
Before the treatment, we begin with a short consultation to understand your wishes and any challenges you may have. I will also explain how the session proceeds and its different phases. The treatment begins with a calm warming in the sauna, after which I place “forest palms” – the whisks – over your face to protect you and deepen the sensory experience.
During the treatment, I use a variety of whisks and techniques: guiding warm air, gentle whisking movements, heat wrapping, pressure, and water pouring. Together, these create a deeply relaxing and therapeutic experience, allowing the natural wellbeing effects of the plants to fully unfold. The whole body is treated on both sides, with special attention given to the larger muscle groups.
Special attention is also given to the soles of the feet. In old Finnish tradition, a person’s strength and health were believed to be connected to the feet, as they were seen as the point of connection to the earth – to the “power of the land.”
At the end of the treatment, I place all the used whisks on your body, allowing the scents of the forest, the warmth, and the silence to envelop you in a multi-sensory moment. You can rest in this state and enjoy the stillness, and refreshments are offered at the end.
Come and experience the gentle touch of the forest – healing sauna whisking is an experience that nurtures both body and mind.
You may bring a swimsuit if you wish, as well as a water bottle and a towel. It is recommended to hydrate well already the day before.
