Take a short spa break to Amsterdam in The Netherlands!
Map view of Amsterdam
After a long day of sightseeing around Amsterdam a little pampering may be in order. While Amsterdam is more notorious for its hedonistic pleasures than its restorative ones, the city still does offer a nice selection of spas.
Sauna Deco
Where interior art meets divine relaxation and healing is where you’ll find Sauna Deco. Sauna Deco is Amsterdam’s flagship of day spas located in the city centre. Much of the spa’s interior design comes from Au Bon Marche, Paris’s famous 1920s department store. The spa menu is full, the staff are rated, the practitioners are the best in the city and the facilities are five star all the way. Enjoy private treatments, plunge pools, swimming pools, saunas and a Turkish steam bath.
Amsterdam Massage Centre
The Amsterdam Massage Centre has the largest massage menu in the city. Various massages on offer include Ayurvedic, Swedish, Thai, reflexology, specialised foot massages, hot stone massages, cranio-sacral, Shiatsu, Lomi Lomi, pregnancy, Reiki, sport, AQAMA and Dorn Breuss.
Koan Float
While Koan Float does feature most well known massage techniques, it also proudly offers a range of many lesser known massage therapies like Esalen defined by long, slow strokes and Boja massage that is ideal for suffers of headaches, back and shoulder tension, poor blood circulation and sleeplessness. Koan Float also features water tanks that contain extremely salty water which buoys your body to give it a weightless, floating feeling that induces deep relaxation and meditation.
Aveda Day Spa
The Aveda Dayspa is a full service beauty treatment haven. Aveda is a world famous brand recognised for its high quality services and products and in order to have the Aveda name, the spa must pass constant quality checks. Aveda is particularly well known for excellent facials, but their service menu runs the gamut from facials to foot massages and from hair colour to make-up services.
