Until now I had traveled to Chelsea just to find a decent steam bath. I finally heard about Nordic Oasis in Marblehead, and decided to give it a try. It was an incredible solution to all my needs. I started in their incredible barrel sauna, and was able to work up a great body cleansing sweat in a short period of time. I then went directly to the cold water plunge. They have two units, one set at 55 degrees and the other at 45 degrees. I opted for the 45 degree plunge, and immediately felt the healing power of the cold water. It was clean, private, and incredibly soothing. I followed the cold water plunge with the unique solar blankets that Nordic Oasis provides. It was 45 minutes of peaceful meditation under the warm soothing blanket. When I was finished I felt like a new man. The staff was courteous and knowledgeable, and the space clean an well organized. I recommend it highly for anyone looking for hot and cold therapy to ease your aching muscles, and relax your mind.

The spa is in a business building; not what you would expect, but upon entering his suite; it was cozy and typical of a spa. We opted to both be in the sauna and cold plunge and then individually go in for massages once our sauna session was up. Sauna and adjoining room were clean upon arrival. Cold plunge tub was filled as we spoke (not ice cold, but cold enough for beginners). He reviewed protocol with us and left the room for us. Massages were individual and allowed us to utilize the sauna while the other was getting a massage. He was professional and it was a great massage. Pricing was extremely reasonable and we will be back. We normally go to Fire and Ice in Dedham, but they lack an in room cold plunge, which we really enjoy in combination with the sauna experience. I recommend Ron and his spa; he is passionate about a great experience. We look forward to returning.

The food is exceptional across the board--clean, vibrant flavors, thoughtful presentation, and a menu that feels both creative and grounded. Every dish tastes like it was designed by someone who truly understands restraint and precision, not just trend-chasing. What really sets Kelo apart, though, is how seamless everything feels. The service is polished but relaxed, the pacing is perfect, and there's a calm confidence to the entire operation that you rarely see, especially locally. It's the kind of place where you can go for a special occasion but also just a great night out and leave equally impressed. Newton needed a spot like this--and Kelo absolutely delivers.

A group of girlfriends and I went and it was a treat-- for a three hour pass I think it was $80 or so. You get a locker, robe, towel and slippers. So just bring a bathing suit and you're good to go. The one piece that wasn't a good part of the experience was the staff. They were not at all friendly. When we ordered food and drinks their body language implied that we were bothering or annoying them. It would have been a much better experience if we felt welcome by them, but the space itself was nice.

The saunas are definitely very hot - Between 170-180 degrees. Make sure you bring lots of water to hydrate. The cold plunge is very cold but so refreshing after the sauna.

There are wood-burning sauna options and a steam sauna. The wood burning was lovely because you could hear the fire crackle. The saunas are shared, and it's a pretty social environment. Definitely a Somerville-Cambridge crowd. Everyone was super friendly. I have to say, the saunas were hot-hot. The regulars told me they've never experienced such heat before, so what I experienced wasn't the norm. I did feel very rejuvenated though. Winters usually dry out my skin, but this session made me feel great again. I'd even take breaks in the outdoor lounge, sitting by the fire pit, in a bathing suit, in the dead of winter, surrounded by snow. It was quite the scene. Like a mobile, makeshift version of what I had done in northern Sweden. You can book an hour or 2, and they have packages for multiple visits per month. I will say, I do prefer SweatHouz only because I like to lay out and stretch while having a session, and that kind of behavior is pretty obnoxious when there are up to 5 others with you lol. I'm not sure if they're here every season or if the location will find its permanent residence here, but if you're someone who enjoys a sweat session, I'd say give it a go!
