The Scandinavian Baths are not recommended for pregnant women because sudden temperature changes can lead to complications. Please consult your doctor.

If you are taking medication or have particular health problems (such as cancer), therapeutic treatments are perhaps best avoided. A note from your doctor may be requested by your massage therapist.
