I took a quick trip to Iceland 🌋💧🧖🏼‍♀️
(pronounced) Ese-land by the locals.

A place I had always wanted to visit, known for its communal bathing culture, Iceland was earthy and rocky, just as you might expect from a volcanic island.

A few things I learned from this quick trip, is that this country, with only 350,000 inhabitants, is run by women. Icelanders pride themselves on being “simpletons” and fishing is their main source of income, as well as tourism, as evidenced by the many languages spoken at the Blue Lagoon.

The last photo was taken at “Tipsy”, which had just been rated the #1 bar in Iceland! The very skilled bartender explained that their language had not really evolved over the last 1,000 years. Their words are very long and almost no slang is used. Most Icelanders speak perfect English, making it easy to communicate. And they are very proud of their Viking heritage.

After this brief interlude, I returned to the first day of spring in Brooklyn, warm sun, buds pushing their way into the world and a quiet backyard that is so often filled with wonderful people basking and bathing with others.

Unfortunately, we have had to pause our hydrotherapy while we update our facilites. We are so sorry to not be hosting our community sessions and seeing your kind and happy faces.

Until then, we continue to offer our wonderful hot stone massages, body scrubs, some new solo and packages for two, as well as face + body treatments. Link in bio~

We are still offering you a space to gather for special occasions and we will be starting meditation in May. 🧘🏻The Pergola is now open for outdoor massages and body treatments, (weather pending).🌿

It continues to be our mission to create a warm & welcoming space to care for your body and mind. We hope you will enjoy our nature filled backyard and offerings. Stop by for a tea, read a book, swing in our hammock and stay for “un verre” after a revitalizing scrub or massage.🥂🫖🧉

Thank you again for all your support after all these years. It is the people who make up our team and community that keep us inspired and looking towards the future.

Warmly,
Liz & the cityWell team 💕

Dear cityWell Community,

We want to share a quick update with you. Our hydrotherapy space and our community hours are temporarily closed while we take a short pause to make a few updates behind the scenes. We look forward to reopening the space soon and welcoming you back for the full cityWell experience. 💧

In the meantime, our beautiful space remains open for massage and body treatments 7 days a week with extended hours on Sunday, and we warmly invite you to come in, slow down, and take care of yourself. After your session, we encourage you to linger a little longer- unwind in our peaceful garden space and enjoy a cup of tea and seasonal fruit as your body continues to relax and restore. 🩵

If you’ve been feeling the need to reset, restore, or simply carve out a moment of quiet for yourself, we would love to welcome you in.

Thank you so very much for your patience and understanding. We know how important this space and community are to so many of you—it’s one of my favorite parts of cityWell—so please know we’ll be missing you too. We’ll keep you updated and appreciate you all so much. 💕

Warmly,
Liz & the cityWell Team

We’re also delighted to introduce our newest massage therapist, Roan Shea, who is now seeing clients Friday through Monday ✨

Roan is a Licensed Massage Therapist based in Brooklyn, as well as an athlete, artist, and martial arts practitioner. He brings these disciplines together to support a thoughtful and holistic understanding of the body, one that blends empathy with a strong foundation in anatomy and science.

Roan approaches massage as a collaborative and energetic exchange, where communication and individualized care are at the center of each session. During his training in the QCC Massage Therapy Program, he focused on slow myofascial release techniques that provide deep, lasting relief. His own experience with chronic pain and injury informs his patient, attentive, and thorough approach.

Roan has openings this weekend!

Additionally, enjoy 15% off your massage when you book with him—valid for appointments in March. Please mention ROAN15 in the notes when booking.

✨A Gentle Shift Toward Spring ~ WEEKLY OPENINGS 🌿 Click here for an update from cityWell brooklyn!

We had a beautiful and impromptu Pop Up with + .life last Friday ✨✨

The serums founder, Sierra Blake, who had just flown in for the sauna festival, made a first stop in bk and shared with us the first ever sauna serum and integrated its use with a guided and aromatic Aufguss Session led by Sarah Spoto from CT. 🔥✨

We experienced this session in the Cabin, the larger of our cedar saunas: Aromatic snowballs infused with each of the essential oils that make up the scent and fanned with intention and skill by Sarah as we massaged the oil on our skin and hair.

The thoughtfulness and ritual of it all reignited my desire to learn the true art of the Aufguss. Otherwise know us my “German Sauna Trick”.

A BIG thank you to the wonderful people who joined us that night and especially to Sarah & Sierra for bringing your special sauna experience to .

To read more about Sarah’s experience during her winter weekend of sauna rituals and to find out more about the Saint Lucie sauna serum you can check out Sarah’s substack. Link in my bio~ Warmly, 🔥 Liz

Hi friends,

We’re adding a little extra glow to this week’s Friday Community Session.

February 20, 6–8 pm, we’re welcoming Saint Lucie for a special in-sauna pop-up: the Ritual of Radiance - offered as part of our regular community session.

This immersive ritual unfolds through waves of aromatic steam, created with handcrafted snowballs infused with essential oils, guiding you through a layered sensory experience. The ritual also features the world’s first sauna serum, used in the heat to deeply nourish hair, skin, and mind. Think: warmth, scent, stillness, and an intentional moment of presence.

The ritual will be gently woven into the flow of the evening, so you can experience it naturally during your soak and sauna time - no separate booking needed, just join us for Community Night.

About Saint Lucie:
Raised in Midwest sauna culture, Sierra Blake is a therapist and the founder of Saint Lucie. Her work unites science, ritual, and botanicals through the world’s first sauna serum - a multi-use oil designed to nourish hair, skin, and mind in the heat.

The ritual will be guided in collaboration with Sarah Spoto, a European-trained and certified sauna master and Aufguss Master, and the founder of Badii, a Swiss-inspired thermal bathing community. Sarah also hosts the podcast “Badii Talk: Thermal Bathing & Sauna Culture,” where she explores global bathing traditions.
