This is an excellent, professional place to get a Thai massage! They also offer oil massage and…read moremany other treatments. The place is decorated in a very exotic, hippy, and peaceful manner, with beautiful, thoughtful details throughout. The massages take place in small curtained off areas, with mats on the floor, traditional Thai style. It's easy to call ahead and make an appointment with their kind receptionist. I highly recommend the Thai massage - it's just 495 sek and is super relaxing. If you've never had a Thai massage before, you might be a little surprised by it - you'll be fully clothed for the massage, in loose fitting clothing provided by the spa, and the masseuse will likely walk on your back, push on pressure points, and help you stretch your muscles extensively. If you're looking for a more "normal" massage, the oil massage is great, and just 595 sek. And if you're feeling adventurous and wanting to try the Thai massage a bit, they offer a mix massage as well.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Grand Hôtel Nordic Spa & Fitness. When you check in, you'll get flip…read moreflops, a robe and disposable underoos if you're getting a massage. Treatments: I got a classic Swedish massage, which was really relaxing. I had just finished listening to the Moth podcast about Russian massages, which can be bonecrushing. So I was a little nervous. However, my massager was strong, but gentle. I was relaxed and refreshed afterwards. Totally recommend it! I also got a mani/pedi with varnish. I didn't realize that either you get no nail polish, or they sell you the nail polish bottle! It was a funny surprise to get some nail polish to go! The Day Spa is free with any treatment, so I stayed from 9am to 4pm, and emerged glowing and joyful! Facilities: They have fantastic facilities. They were really clean - their staff were constantly cleaning and refreshing towels, water, fresh apples and slices of orange. Coed area: They have a beautiful little pool, hot tub with bubbles and a waterfall, steam room. In the women's area, they have a sauna, freezing cold pool with a waterfall, spacious changing room with big lockers. They also have lots of showers, WCs and extra towels, flip flops and lotions and soaps. Loved it! Fitness Bar: They also have a fitness bar upstairs, complete with smoothies and a food menu. Tip: wear real clothes, not your robe. Also, call the phone in there if there's nobody there to serve you. I got confused by all the members serving themselves, and wondered if they were staff members who were just ignoring me! Turns out, I should have just called downstairs. Fun Times: When most people left around 3pm, I had fun playing with all the buttons Harry Potter style, to turn on waterfalls and bubbles in the in the pool and hot tubs. Most of the time, there were people in each area on a Sunday. However, I noticed that there was a slight dip around 2-4, but more people were coming in around 4 when I left. Staff: The staff were all really friendly, polite and helpful. I tend to ask a lot of questions, and sometimes I don't get the best response. But in this case, they were quite happy I chatted them up, and even offered me some tips for where to visit in Stockholm. Reservations: I emailed them 3 days before I arrived and they offered me their only reservation for the Sunday I requested. They even called me later to say that they had two back-to-back openings open up for the other treatments I requested. They emailed back promptly and answered all my questions. Prices: I found the prices to be fair considering it's in the middle of Stockholm and in such a nice hotel. Final Verdict: This has been one of my favorite spas because it's quiet, clean and not overrun with tourists. Their staff is professional and friendly.

I had to have a Swedish massage while in Sweden! Is it really a trip to Sweden without one (and…read moremaybe some meatballs!)? I of course took to Yelp to find the best place to do this. Definitely found the right one! This was a magical experience. The hotel is beautiful, and just screams luxury. I checked in early, because I wanted to have some extra time in the wet areas, and not feel rushed. Everyone was friendly, and I was greeted with a robe, flip flops, and a locker to place my items. The pool, sauna, steam room, hot tub, and cold plunge were all fantastic additions to prepare me for my massage. The massage was wonderful (it was a guy, which at first made me nervous but turned out great), and I left feeling completely relaxed. I did mine in the evening, which was perfect because I was able to shower and go straight to bed! My only complaint would be that it was quite warm in there, so I did sweat, but who doesn't want all the toxins out of your body?! Especially after all the lovely wine and mead on my vacation! No pics as cameras are not allowed!

I got in right away and was asked if I wanted a medium or hard Massage. I chose hard because my hips were out of whack and I knew I needed her to hurt me (so to speak). The massage was wonderful!

This massage made me feel INCREDIBLE after. I can raise my arms without feeling like i was rusty. I can lift my shoulders without struggling to get through the tightness. Best thing I've ever done. Best part is I have 5-6 more days of traveling and this will help me carry a backpack on my back without any more pain. The ladies were very accommodating and nice. I would 10000% recommend coming by in the beginning of your trip so you can feel great for the rest of your time/day.

But there was nothing to worry about. The women here speak good English, which is very helpful when booking. My husband and I were shown to neighboring beds. The room was warm but not hot. The ladies didn't really give us great instructions, so after a lot of laughter and giggling about which blanket goes where, we got it all figured out and started the massage. If you've never had Thai massage before, it's kind of like this petite Asian woman is trying to literally separate the fibers of your muscles by pulling your muscles in opposite directions. But afterward, you feel like 10 million bucks. This massage did use oil (some Thai massages don't) and so it was kind of like a hybrid Thai/deep tissue massage. I felt fabulous afterwards. The prices in general for massages in this part of the world are pretty cheap compared to what we pay in the USA so I was happy to pay and would absolutely come back.

I've been at this place few times for their salt room treatment, time to write a few lines!…read moreThe local is a kinda cozy, I actually missed the entrance door the first time! If it does't open, don't give up, keep pushing :) The lady sitting there in the evenings is very friendly and helpful, ready to explain about several treatments they have. I've learned that she is not the owner though. The local itself is not fresh fresh but fresh enough to be comfortable. The only drawback is that there is no changing room, not critical for saltroom itself but I think about yoga for example, still good enough to give them a 5. They have two rooms, salt & ljus room, with different types of services, yoga & massage in salt room,.... Saturday mornings they have a special event for children in the salt room. I've just used the salt room and I am very satisfied. They are open on Saturdays and until 20:00 for some weed days which makes it very convenient as an after work plan. I'm no expert on the health related benefits of this treatment but in practice, it helped my asthma a lot. I've heard and tested saltroom almost a year ago but just couple of times and it was not my asthma peak period either. This year I went there in the most difficult period and it really helped. To be honest, I'm normally skeptical but The immediate effect surprised me. The other favorite thing about this room is that it is a silent room, no phone allowed, just lay down and listen to the music and keep your eyes closed and take deep breaths, not sure about you but I don't do these things all together so often :D For me, I will keep this treatment as a routine. I hope it will help others as well.
