7 reasons to visit us on a hot day

February 15, 2018 at 5:13 pm

Although immersing yourself in geothermal waters on a hot day may seem counter intuitive, we have plenty to offer as the temperature rises.

1. We cool down some of our pools

To ensure you enjoy your bathing experience in the heat, we keep a close eye on the temperate of our waters, particularly on hot days. To keep you safe and relaxed we combine cool mineral water with our geothermal water to create the perfect temperature in our pools.

 

2. Perfect opportunity to trial alternating hot and cold therapy

You may have heard of the benefits of awakening the body through alternate hot and cold therapy. This involves quickly changing the body’s environment from being immersed in a warm environment, to a cold environment and then back into a warm one again. This contrast can simultaneously reduce inflammation, stimulate circulation, and loosen tight muscles, resulting in pain reduction. We have cold plunge pools and warm geothermal pools to alternate between to trial this popular procedure and a warm day is the perfect excuse to dip into the cold plunge pools.

 

3. Experience Clay Ridge for free

When the local temperature exceeds 33 degrees, we are providing our popular Clay Ridge experience free of charge to all Bath House guests. Valued at $40, this experience invites you to paint your body (or the body of your friends) with natural clays, a cooling technique recognised by various cultures throughout history. Just ask our friendly reception team to book you into a session, held three times daily. Bookings are subject to availability. Please be advised children under the age of 16 are invited to participate in our 9am session of Clay ridge, with our 2pm and 4pm sessions reserved for guests 16 years and over.

 

4. Plenty of shade and protection from the wind

We are inspired by our natural landscape and therefore have returned many indigenous species to what was previously farmland. Stay cool under the shade of moonahs and tea-trees and enjoy a day immersed in nature with the native coastal trees sheltering you from both the sun and the wind.

 

5. No sand in your bathers

We’ve all experienced the discomfort of sand hiding in our bathers. With no sand, just natural healing waters, we have the perfect alternative to the scratchy irritation felt after a day at the beach.

 

6. Enhance your experience with our summer activities calendar

Each summer we provide a calendar of additional summer activities to celebrate the warmer weather and longer daylight hours. This year until the end of April we have yoga on Mondays at 5:30pm and Fridays at 8am held in our Bath House area. We also have live music in our Bath House café every Thursday evening from 6:30pm until 8:30pm. Both activities are complimentary for you to enjoy with Bath House bathing.

 

7. Enjoy the tranquillity, as it is generally a quiet time

We are divulging the secret of one of our most tranquil times. The warmer the temperature, the less people to share the space with. We hope you enjoy bathing in this rejuvenating environment, relaxing in nature and connecting with the deep well of your being.
