Spa Clemens
Clemens, in Latin, evokes the idea of letting go. It’s in this mood that Clēmēns, Paris’s first aquatic spa, has opened in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, offering a unique experience that highlights the extraordinary benefits of water on the body, combined with cutting-edge treatments.
You can feel the magical and distinctive atmosphere typical of Saint-Germain here, with vaulted ceilings, basins, historic stones, beams, and candlelight creating a perfect ambiance for disconnecting… Imagine the pleasure of floating in water combined with practices like sophrology or aquatic hypnosis—ideal for taming stress, tension, and those little aches (140 € for 1 hour). A special mention goes to the Signature Ritual, which offers a 50-minute floating massage followed by a private session in either fresh or saltwater for an hour, perfect to enjoy with your BFF or significant other.
What we love: the floating massage delivered in a basin of natural hot water. No table here—you lie back, supported by floats and the therapist, who blends an incredible therapy that mixes acupuncture points, pressure, stretching, and massage. The movement and soothing power of the water amplify the effects, allowing you to drift away completely (60 minutes – 150 €).
Spa Clemens,14 rue des Saints-Pères, Paris 7e. Open Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday from 11 AM to 9 PM. Thursday from 3 PM to 9 PM. Saturday and Sunday from 10 AM to 8 PM. Online reservations.

Kupala
Welcome to an isba with a fireplace, forest mattress, and wooden logs. The idea? Treat yourself to a unique experience that washes away both body and mind… the Slavic way! Attention: sensitive souls, turn back now. Taken in hand from the very beginning by an imposing “Steam Master,” the chosen ritual begins in a Banya (an intermediate between a sauna and a hammam) with temperatures ranging from 50° to 75° and 60% humidity. You lie face down, with your head in a ventilated hole filled with fresh air scented with pine and eucalyptus. The ritual of flagellation then begins with a bundle of branches and leaves soaked in hot water to stimulate blood circulation and the immune system. The Steam Master then pours a bucket of ice-cold water over you before plunging you into a cold water bath. Intense, but oh-so-revigorating!
Next, we move on to a scrub made from natural products (honey, salt, herbs, fruits) followed by soaping with birch branches. The result? No more muscle tension, a toned body, fresh skin, and a steel resolve.
What we love: To recover from the emotions, a forest mattress awaits you by the fire. Well wrapped in a warm aromatic sheet, the Steam Master gives you a divinely relaxing foot massage.
Kupala, 20 rue de Vouillé, Paris 15e. Open Tuesday to Sunday from 10 AM to 10 PM. Petit Banya Ritual, 1h30, 170 € for one person. Online reservations.

Ideal for a healthy mini-break with a 40-minute session.
We like : perfecting the visit in the fabulous decor of the café created by Studio Haddou-Dufourcq , where we chill with friends around a vegan brownie and a matcha latte made with vegetable milk.
Belleyme . 8 rue Charles-François Dupuis, Paris 3e, open from Tuesday to Thursday from 10.30 am to 9 pm, and from Friday to Saturday from 10 am to 7 pm. Infrared sauna, 49 € for 50 minutes. Online booking.
