The path of the wind. The song of water. The wave of sound. Every programme is a path from body to mind. We begin with a brief scalp diagnosis. We close with an afterglow you'll want to return to.
In every ritual - whatever the method or the level of immersion - the same frame is held. Programmes differ in what is laid on top: water, sound, the face, cosmetology, a body scrub, or a hand-and-foot massage.
Every ritual begins with a brief scalp diagnosis. We don't work without it - that is the foundation of our approach.
Three ways to arrive at the same place - restoration from within.
Kaze-no-Michi - 'the path of the wind'. In Japanese culture the wind is an unseen touch: it embraces the body without the weight of water. This method holds no water arch. The therapist's hands, the combs and the device-led techniques pass over the scalp like a warm, light touch - in stillness, without the sound of water or steam. Suited to days when time is short, when you'd rather not wet the hair, or when the body asks for a dry, tactile contact.
Mizu-uta - 'the song of water'. In this method, water doesn't wash - it sings. The rhythm of the water arch, the whisper of steam, the weight of soap on the scalp, the warm breath of ozone - all of it is the voice of water, and the body answers. Aqua meditation beneath the water arch, a soap massage of the head, a steam bath, ozone therapy. A full immersion. The heart of the Japanese Head Spa.
Otonami - 'the wave of sound'. Here, sound carries the water. Singing bowls don't accompany the ritual - they lead it. Their vibration travels through the body where touch cannot reach, at the level of the nervous system and the emotional tone, and the body lets go of time. The deepest psycho-emotional reset we offer today.
- programmes of their own: for two, and for visitors to Riga
Three hours: quiet, warm water, work with the body and the breath, the hands of the therapists, a tea ceremony and an unhurried conversation. No phones, no "must".
"Be ready to find yourselves - so as to keep one another."
Japanese hospitality in the east of Europe. A ritual for those who have two to five days in Riga, for couples, and for those giving a gift. The foundation is the one every ritual shares - a scalp diagnosis, massage, care, aromatherapy and a tea ceremony with Latvian winter tea.

The cosmetology layer (Basic / Premium / Deluxe Face SPA) is included in the level price. The specific set of procedures is agreed with the guest after a brief facial-skin diagnosis.

Every programme begins with a brief scalp diagnosis - that is part of our approach. Durations are given for the full ritual, except hair drying: each guest chooses to dry their hair on their own or with our spa technologist, and that time is not included in the main duration.
On a first visit we recommend Aqua Face & Head Relax Basic or Aqua Sound Basic - these give you a sense of what a full water ritual feels like, and how your body responds.
Today, the page holds three methods of restoration. Within this year we are adding two more layers: a fourth level of immersion, and medical trichology.
