Swedish Spa Day Ystad




On the shores of the most western tip of Sweden is the town of Ystad. Along with being a charming little seaside town in its own right, it is also home to one of the finest spas in Skane.

For a birthday present my husband took me there to get a very unique treatment called "The Creek Experience".



This is the entrance to the treatment area. You take your shoes off and walk through a water filled path to get there.

The program is for couples and you are guided through spa treatments from all over world by a technician and then you perform them on each other.


 


                           You start off by soaking your feet in gold tiled tubs filled with Dead Sea salts


And then proceed through a labyrinth of wet and dry saunas


Waterfall showers

 

 

and hot tubs....



My favorite parts of the experience were the African mud bath treatment and the Turkish bath of which were both done in separate but equally authentically decorated treatment rooms. I wish I could find photos of them, but maybe its better you see them for yourself......
Finally a Swedish Spa experience to write home about, what a day!!!
