my Instagram and my blog. One of my resolutions last year was to explore Canada and one of this year’s was to embrace Winter. I have to come to terms with the fact that I live in a very cold country and I have to make the most out of winter. We are not escaping to an island this winter because of the low loonie. Instead we are finding fun
places within Canada to escape to.
took one of my absolute best friends with me because she is a spa junkie and I knew after seeing pictures of this place she would love to visit.
first timers, we wanted to know what we were working with. Most people that come here have been here before, so if it’s your first time, do not be afraid to ask for a little help, or better yet, you can read this page made for first timers. You’ll find all the information you need, from what to bring for your day, to spa etiquette and even a virtual tour.

whisper, the Kaskad, where complete silence is required (for
meditation), and Panorama, for people like us who love to talk a lot.
It’s important to be mindful of your surroundings and keep things quiet, after all you are there to relax!

There are plenty of saunas on site, some are scented, others are dry. I am not a big fan of saunas per say, which was not a problem because the available steam rooms were a perfect substitute. The Eucalyptus and the orange steam rooms do the same job, but different scents. My friend and I both went in several times. Get ready to sweat within minutes!
The Nordik Spa-Nature also offers many types of massages, unfortunately everything was booked. We could’ve definitely used a Swedish massage. If you are planning a trip there, it’s recommended to book your massage at least 3 weeks in advance.
When you are looking for a day of immense relaxation, the Nordik Spa-Nature is really
the place to go. From the time we entered this place, we both felt like
we were in another world. As a mother, I hardly get a minute for myself.
From driving the kids to their
activities, working, running errands and cooking dinners, I don’t know
where time goes. My friend and I enjoyed every minute of our stay there
and we are looking forward to going back very soon. This Spa is not only perfect individuals or couples, but also for a group of people (corporate events, weddings etc). They have a lodge you can stay at for
the weekend. Today, I challenge you to take a moment away from your busy
life and enjoy a relaxation at the Nordik Spa-Nature.
