Every now and then I like to treat myself to some form of relaxation. Wether its a massage, pedicure, or spa day, I think its so important for our inner happiness to take care of ourselves from the inside out. A couple days ago I spent a day at SoJo Spa Club in Edgewater, New Jersey and had such a wonderful day!
For only $60 you get full access to outdoor pools and baths, multiple saunas, saunas and therapy rooms, and more! Honestly, a pretty affordable price for such a relaxing and rejuvenating day. The amenities are beautiful and the staff is warm and friendly. The rooftops have views of the New York City skyline.
We started out the day by laying out by the the Silk Bath on the spa’s comfortable lounge chairs. After a little too much sun we decided to try out the pools and baths. Some are warm and some are a bit colder so I recommend testing the water with your foot first! My favorite was the Hinoki Bath because it had a faint lemon scent that very much relaxed me.
On our way to the Hydrotherapy Pool we walked along the Foot Massage Path. It’s basically a walkway with water and stones. It’s supposed to give a relaxing massage to the feet and provide entire body awareness. I really enjoyed this although not everyone does. If you have sensitive skin it might be a bit hard to walk through. Take your time!
We then made our way inside to try out some of the saunas. My personal favorite was the Himalayan Salt Sauna. This sauna is supposed to detox the body while providing purified air to ground the mind, body, and soul. You can even taste the salt if you breathe in deeply through your mouth! Himalayan salt has such natural benefits to it and I prefer it over sea salt.
After sweating and detoxing our then, very warm bodies, we tested out the ice room. It might have been unhealthy and shocking for our bodies to go from one extreme to the next, but we did it anyway. This room of course felt cooling but also very peaceful because of the icy white walls and floors.
Overall, it was a great day for a great price! I would definitely recommend trying out the SoJo Spa Club and I will be making my way back there sometime soon.
