Why is a trip to the sauna a good idea? There are plenty of reasons to grab your calendar and book a relaxing sauna visit!

Spending quality time with your favourite sauna buddy is the perfect way to boost your relationship and give each other some one-on-one attention. But there are more benefits to a day at the sauna.

Less stress

As a student, you’re probably no stranger to stress. Spending a day at the sauna can lower your cortisol levels, which in turn makes you feel less stressed. The heat of the sauna boosts the production of happiness-boosting hormones known as endorphins, which lift your mood. And finally: spending time in the sauna helps you sleep better!

What are the health benefits of a day at the sauna?

Better circulation: the heat of the sauna dilates your blood vessels and makes your heart beat faster. Alternating between hot and cold helps improve your immune system, which can make you less likely to get sick.

What questions did other students have about the sauna?

  • Do you have to be naked at Thermae Grimbergen or is there also a swimwear section?

Our sauna and wellness centre has a separate nude and swimwear section, each with their own saunas, swimming pools, relaxation baths, hot tubs and steam baths for guests to use. You’re welcome to enjoy both sections, provided you respect the dress code in each.

  • What type of swimwear is permitted at Thermae Grimbergen?

Women are expected to wear a swimsuit or a bikini and men are required to wear tight-fitted swim shorts or briefs (Speedo).

  • What should I bring for a day of wellness at Thermae Grimbergen?

You’ll need a few things to make your wellness experience more comfortable:

  1. A towel to sit on in the sauna
  2. An extra towel to dry off with at the end of the day
  3. A bathrobe and slippers to wear between sauna sessions
  4. Your favourite shower products (or you can use the shower gel and shampoo we provide)
  5. Comfortable underwear and a loose-fitting outfit are also recommended after a relaxing day at the sauna
  6. A hydrating body lotion and night cream
  7. A book or a magazine to read while lounging

Fun sauna fact 

Thermae Grimbergen has more than just saunas, swimming pools and hot tubs for guests to enjoy. Our Aufguss masters are dedicated to making your sauna visit a truly memorable experience. Every day, our guests can participate in a free experience programme consisting of various sauna rituals.

Aufguss sessions in the sauna: the Aufguss masters pour water infused with essential oils over the hot stones, creating scented clouds of steam that raise the temperature and the humidity of the sauna. They then waft the hot air over your body, giving you an incredible adrenaline boost!

Scrub sessions in the steam baths: you’ll be given a handful of salt to exfoliate your skin and remove impurities, leaving you with silky-soft and radiant complexion! During the scrub session, the Aufguss master will distribute the warm steam throughout the room with a towel.

Relaxation sessions in the relaxation and salt room: we host several relaxation sessions for our guests to enjoy. One uses singing bowls and the other is a meditation session in our special salt room.

On Wednesdays, our Zen master hosts extra Mindful Moments. These unique sessions teach you new ways to relax and unwind. More information?
