🔥 It’s Sauna Season 🔥

As the days get shorter and the air turns crisp, it’s the perfect time to slow down and reconnect with yourself. Step into the soft warmth of our infrared sauna and let the world melt away for a little while.⁠

Enjoy the of serenity in your own private space, complete with a shower, fresh towels, and everything you need to unwind. Let the gentle heat soothe sore muscles, support detoxification, and bring your body back into balance.⁠

You can book a sauna session on its own or pair it with a massage or counselling appointment for the ultimate self-care experience.⁠

Appointments are available in one hour increments, allowing you to choose a time-frame that works best for your heat tolerance and schedule. We recommend spending 30-45 minutes in the sauna, taking breaks as needed, as well as regularly re-hydrating.

At Eleven Arrows, we value your wellbeing—and that of our entire community. To support everyone’s health and help reduce last-minute cancellations, we’re introducing a Health Pre-Screening process.⁠

Here’s how it works:⁠
- 24-48 hours before your appointment, you’ll complete a quick health screening form sent through our Jane booking system.⁠
- Please take a moment to fill it out and check in with how you’re feeling.⁠
- If you complete the screening and wake up unwell the morning of your appointment, you may cancel without charge as long as you call by 9:00 a.m. to let us know.⁠
⁠- If you don’t complete the screening and need to cancel within 24 hours, the standard full-cancellation fee will apply.⁠

This practice helps our practitioners prepare their day thoughtfully and ensures everyone in our space stays well cared for.⁠

Thank you for helping us maintain a healthy and supportive environment for all. ⁠
With care,⁠
The Eleven Arrows Team 🤍

Intake forms… not the most exciting part of your visit, but super important 📝😉⁠

In this reel, Paul explains why filling them out helps us get to know you, your needs, your goals, and even those little details that make all the difference.

Think of it as giving our practitioners the “cheat sheet” to fully support you.

So yes, the paperwork is worth it, promise! ✨⁠

Autumn is here and we are feeling all the cozy, grounding vibes. 🍂

We put together a little mood board to capture the season... think warm cups of tea, golden leaves, gentle movement, grounding practices, and moments of stillness.

Autumn invites us to slow down, reset, and nourish ourselves from the inside out. We love carrying this seasonal energy into our space, our treatments, and our community gatherings.

Here’s to balance, warmth, and embracing the beauty of change.
