They're now Shiver and Sweat! They're still amazing. Everyone is so welcoming and helpful and the…read morespace is so comfortable and refreshing. We usually do the contrast sessions and sit in then sauna with red light therapy and then alternate to the cold tub. We leave feeling super refreshed. Do yourself a favor and visit !!

5/5: Efficient, private, and exactly what I needed for a spontaneous sauna session!…read more I booked this on impulse during spring break, Wednesday at 2:30pm, and rated it 5/5 based on how quick and easy the booking process was through the Mindbody app Deals section, just a few hours in advance. The experience itself was equally efficient and sufficient. Think of it like a deli style, quick in & out sauna and cold plunge experience without the extra bells and whistles of a traditional spa. I reserved the Contrast Therapy Suite 2 XL, which includes a sauna, cold plunge (metal bath tub), and standing shower, $95 for 60 minutes. The suite also has a bench, hooks, and a shelf for belongings, so no locker is needed. You get the entire private suite to yourself or your group, up to 4 people. It's comfortable for 3 to lie down in the sauna, and spacious enough for 4 seated. The cold bath and shower are one person at a time. There is a speaker to connect your phone for music, though pairing did not work for me. There is also a remote control for different color lighting, which adds a nice touch. I would describe the "cold plunge" more accurately as a cold soak, since it is a bathtub rather than a standing ice plunge. That said, I really appreciated the full privacy of the suite. You don't have to move between shared spaces, and you can fully relax, even be completely nude if you choose, which my husband especially appreciated for his first experience. The facility itself is compact: - 4 single sauna rooms (no shower, and I was told it's recommended to wait at least 30 minutes before showering after sauna) - 2 private Contrast Therapy suites Suite 1 fits up to 2 people seated in the sauna with red infrared, and is ideal for one person if you want to lie down comfortably. Cold bath and shower are also one at a time. Andrea was the staff member during my visit, friendly, helpful, and welcoming. It is on the pricier side for a 60 minute session without a steam room, but I truly value the efficiency, simplicity, and privacy, especially for those who are always on the go. Parking: free, unlimited street parking on most streets around the studio. They offer memberships and intro packages depending on your needs. I would definitely return when I want sauna access without planning days or weeks ahead like traditional spas. I would book Suite 1 for solo use on my next visit, or Suite 2 XL again if sharing the space privately with friends. A great option when you want a straightforward, no-fuss sauna experience on your own schedule.

I'm definitely going back! Overall I had a very relaxing time and the staff was friendly. I went in…read morefor my first time for just an hour visit to enjoy the amenities. It's noon on a Thursday so I got the whole place to myself. The only things I would say needs improvement is none of the lockers had functioning or working keys/locks so I couldn't safely secure my personal items and I had some anxiety about leaving my items in the women's room unsecured. Another issue was the shower faucet took a few minutes to warm up and I wasn't warned about it so I fiddled with it so much at first that I just ended up taking a cold shower. It just would have been a good idea if they just told me how to turn on the faucet and to wait a few minutes for the warm water to kick in, when they gave me the tour. And the button for the body wash kept popping off. So just some minor things need updating. The steam room was fantastic tho! I love the mix of eucalyptus. It really helped my stuffy sinuses. The hot tub is amazing! I love how the seats kinda cradle your butt. I usually have a hard time in hot tubs cuz they push me off the seat. But not with this design! It's wonderfully made and I love the stars and candles. I didn't think it'd use the "cool plunge " but once I realized it wasn't cold it was much needed after over heating myself from the steam room and hot tub. I didn't think I would enjoy the UV room but I actually did! It was very relaxing. The hot tea and snacks are also a bonus. Just a very well done business idea and something I've been looking for. I think the price is more than reasonable for what you're getting. I'll be back! I did mention a couple of my concerns with the staff and it sounds like they do plan on getting new locks in the future so I really hope they live up to that because they have you sign a wavier that basically says they are not liable for stolen items. I have trust issues and have had things stolen out of lockers in my past so this is kind of a big concern of mine that I just hope they can fix quickly. Thanks again Santé spa! You have a new fan. I'm coming back with friends and or family next time!

I like to arrive a few minutes early so I sit for a couple of minutes in the very pleasant waiting room and look at the lovely art and listen to the pleasant music as well as treat myself to a cup of herbal tea. I also attend the Mindfulness Meditation group and that is really great for mental calm and relieving any stress. the other group members are wonderful. Discover Balance gets 5 Stars from me and I am grateful for their kindness and healing abilities. I highly recommend you try one of their offerings.

I know I had blocked chakras after the death of my husband; I felt anxious, depressed, insecure, and emotionally unbalanced. Through weekly treatments, my anxiety and emotions were corrected. She even sent me home with little seeds glued to strategic points I could press when I became overwhelmed. I was so grateful. She also takes insurance, which was a big help for me. Cannot recommend her and her wonderful spa enough.

The front desk was very lackluster--they didn't explain anything, just handed us the locker room…read morekeys. I had read up about the place so I knew the locker rooms were coed, but I was still confused as to whether there were changing rooms or what was the proper etiquette. Place is small and I understand the price is more moderate compared to other spas, but you feel nickel and dimed. Everything is extra, you don't even get complimentary tea. The masseuses were amazing, no complaints there, but when we tried to tip and asked if 100% goes to the masseuse, they said 25% goes to the spa and 75% to the masseuse. I'm sorry, what? Very unethical considering that structure is not transparent at all. The massages were amazing so it's a shame they're not getting their fair share.

The rest of the spa experience and atmosphere was lacking for me. The space was very small and felt crowded. The waiting area was very uncomfortable. It is a small bench right next to the check in desk and was not a relaxing place to wait. The locker room was co-ed which I was not expecting and was also crowded. I didn't know where to change. The floors of the locker room were all wet and it felt damp. It didn't but feel like a nice relaxing spa experience. The sauna area was crowded. Only 3 chairs to hangout in which were occupied most of the time. There was a charge for tea which is usually complimentary in a spa experience. I ended up leaving before my 2 hours for the sauna experience because it was not relaxing and the vibe was not enjoyable. Overall it felt cramped, crowded, damp, and a let down from what was shown on the website.

I visited Knot Springs on a 2 hour day pass as a self care…read moretreat/fun experience shared with friends. I recommend using their referral system to get 20% your visit, especially for first timers. Unlimited tea was a huge perk. All the accessories you would need are provided: shower/spa shoes, towels (multiple types), their own line of yummy shampoo, conditioner and lotion. They even have a drying machine to cycle out the water in your swim suit. Love that there are multiple sections (hot soaking pool, warm still water, cold plunge, sauna, steam room infused with eucalyptus) to go through and that there's a guide for how to rotate through the spaces on the wall. The steam room was my favorite. Also love the outdoor balcony section with lots of chairs to soak in sunshine or lounge with a book. In my experience, service is super friendly esp with the mini locker room rundown. Water pressure and temperature is very finnicky in the shower stalls, but they were very spacious. However the women's bathroom portion can start to feel very small during certain waves of people coming in and out.

I had the chance to visit both Knot Springs and Cascada Thermal Springs + Hotel... and let's just…read moresay....they are not in the same league. Knot Springs? It's giving upgraded gym vibes. Think 24 Hour Fitness, but make it wellness. Hot tub, steam, sauna... clean, simple, and the staff are genuinely great. No complaints there. But the experience itself? It's just... basic. Cascada, on the other hand, is a whole different level. The comparison honestly feels like Spirit vs Delta, Holiday Inn vs The Ritz, Nissan vs Lexus. Once you've experienced that level of intention, design, and atmosphere, it's hard to go back. Knot Springs isn't bad, it's just not that. If you're looking for a straightforward soak, it'll do the job. But if you're chasing an elevated, immersive wellness experience... you might leave wanting more.
