The Savoie department is a perfect destination for a summer or winter holiday in the mountains. The well-known ski area Les Arcs, one of the last built in the region has grown into an extensive and excellent tourist attraction within the last 50 years.
In the village of Arc 1800, holidaymakers can visit the Nama Springs bathhouse, a unique 800m2 wellness resort arranged in two floors. This spa shows how a combination of modern technology and ancient traditions results in the pinnacle of relaxation. The design by Alpha Wellness Sensations ensures that these gems take relaxation to a higher level in the stunning mountainous scenery.

This is a dream wellness center. Or a ‘bathhouse’ as they prefer to be named. The name Nama Springs contains two important features: ‘spring’ which denotes the importance of water and ‘nama’, an abbreviation of namasté, a usual gesture used in India to greet and to show respect. Thus, ‘welcome to our springs’. The atmosphere is Zen, with subtle references to Indian traditions and Ayurveda rituals.
Each sauna offers a specific experience. The Finnish sauna is an event one, where the sauna master carries out essence sessions every hour. This sauna offers a beautiful panoramic view of the mountain's landscape. A dazzling experience at 1800m altitude! The naturally looking timber and the oak trees create a rustic atmosphere in the ‘forest sauna’. A sauna session here feels like a cozy break in the nature. In order to cleanse and stimulate your airways, you can sit in the crystal salt sauna. The positive effects of the raw salt in combination with the altitude impact make your stay a real fitness training. In addition, if you have undertaken sport activities, then the infrared sauna is ideal to handle your tensed muscles. Next, you can have a detox session in the hammam, where your skin becomes velvety after applying salt or sugar scrub. Alternatively, you can let yourself be pampered by a spa specialist. All the treatments in the center are carried out with organic oil; there is no room for cosmetic products. The focus lies on pure enjoyment, relaxation, and regeneration. Worthy to pay a visit!
