Wellness Swedish style

Swedes take their leisure time and wellness very seriously, as they strive to find the perfect balance between a hectic work and home life. No wonder then that the clichéd image of healthy Swedes taking a dip in a lake after a soothing wood-fired sauna is, in actual fact true.

Wellness “Swedish style” is what you want it to be – it could be as simple as renting a lakeside cottage and living the “simple life”, or as pampered as a weekend at a luxury spa enjoying treatments from the ancient Indian Ayurvedic tradition in a setting of relax pools, saunas and therapeutic baths. It’s really up to you.

Spas are increasing in popularity in Sweden as places to unwind, and to gather around with family and friends. From the home of the midnight sun in the far north to the Swedish archipelago in the south, people are just discovering ‘Swedish style wellness’. Why don’t you too?
