I love the idea of German Saunas. It's relaxing and feels amazing. And the Germans have absolutely…read moreno problem enjoying this while being naked with members of the opposite sex. I really appreciate that. They really don't see anything sexual about the experience. The sauna on Schoenhauser was known as a "wellness lounge". You enter the facility, and you are given a key to a locker, and a towel. You go into your gender's changing room, strip down completely and put your clothing in a locker, emerging with only a towel. From there, you wander into one of the saunas, placing the towel on the wooden seat. Forget the towel, and you'll most certainly be corrected by one of the attendees of the proper protocol. Germans are very polite, but they won't hesitate to tell you when you are breaking the rules. If you are lucky, you'll get to experience the Aufguss ritual, in which an attendant will come into the sauna once everyone is seated, pour water on the hot stones to create steam, and then expertly whip a towel around to hit each person in the face with the hot steam. I'll never understand the point of the ritual, just that it appears to be an essential part of the Germany experience, and I didn't want to deny myself this experience. An hour later I leave the wellness lounge, fully refreshed and warmed up - the hangover from last night now a distant memory.

My therapist, Natie, the owner, had me put on my underpants, then directed me to lie down on a massage bed. She started off with my legs and feet and putting pressure on my calves, ankles, fingers, toes, ears and knees. She pressed on my tight shoulder muscles and touched on acupuncture points in my neck at the base of my skull, which released some of the tension I've built up from hunching over a computer all day. The massage concluded with a soothing scalp massage and a glass of mushroom-honey tea, sending me to complete relaxation after 60 minutes. The massage is set in a normal little spa quiet simple furnished and concentrated on the important things complete with aromatic incense and nice piped-in Thai music, and while the masseuses put some serious pressure on those sore points, you leave feeling loose, chill and a little bit spoiled. I can say: Natie has healing hands.

Okay I though I'd help out my girlfriend and write a review of her horrible experience at this spa…read more First this was a birthday gift card that I gave her and she paid extra for a mani&pedi. Now here it goes; she was given a mediocre massage and quasi facial, if you can call rubbing ones face a facial. And they used a prickly utensil to remove blackheads that left tiny scars all over. Then they used a towel to clean her face, not a facial cloth but a big towel. To top it off, they used Balea products from DM for the facial and really cheap nail polish. And they also clipped her nails too low, which caused discomfort! This whole waste of time was not cheap either but the experience and service, indeed was.

This sauna is one of the cheapest I've found so far. We went on a Sunday evening in January. I…read moredon't know if it was because it was a Sunday or cheap or the great reviews on yelp, but it was crowded! The facility is very nice, clean, and stylistic. The garden is beautiful, but I'm sure it would be prettier in the Spring. There are two dry saunas, a large steam sauna, a plunge pool, two "resting/sleeping" rooms, a tanning bed (solarium), a couple massage rooms, a mini bar that sell alcoholic and non-alcoholic beer and other fruit juices. Most other saunas require a ten euro deposit for the key/chip for the lockers. Here they don't. They are very trusting and they seem to work on the honesty system. The entrance is relatively open and you have to pay at the bar. It's a little bit of a maze when you first arrive, but once you are familiar with the layout it's very manageable. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Yes it's a mixed sauna for men and women... and you gotta go in Berlin style... no bathing suits. Loved it... except like I mentioned, it was too crowded.

The quiet room was a bit smelly and didn't feel so relaxing. The beer selection at the bar was good. They offer affordable, good quality massages, I got one and it was very relaxing! The little garden outside is nice. I am not sure if I would go back because of how crowded it was last time, but it would be worth checking out during a non-peak time.
