Bath Programmes
6 programmes — on your terms
Behind every programme is a private room, a wood-fired stove, fresh veniks and a master who stays with you from the first round in the steam room to the tea at the end. Pick a scenario and press "View Details" to see every treatment.
Every programme already includes its treatments, tea with refreshments, drinking water, bathhouse accessories and veniks — there is nothing to bring, just arrive on time. Extra time beyond the programme is charged at the hourly rate, and additional massages, scrubs and steaming techniques are per the price list.

Inspiration
A two-hour ritual for a couple: tea from the samovar, Tibetan bowls during the first warm-up, veniks in the master’s hands, a cold plunge, a salt scrub and quiet on the fragrant hay.
TipFirst time in a genuine wood-fired bathhouse. A gentle introductory format: the full ritual with sound therapy, but without overload.

Traditional
Wood-fired bathhouse classics in full: hot salt foot baths to start, sound and aromas in the steam room, personal steaming with veniks and, to finish, a bamboo-stick massage.
TipI want the classic, deep ritual. The fullest classic scenario: an hour longer than "Inspiration", more rounds in the steam room and deeper relaxation.

Group steaming
A bathhouse evening for a group of 5–10: salt foot baths and an introduction to the traditions, a ceremony with meditation, four shared rounds in the steam room with a venik and a closing ritual that brings the group together.
TipWe are coming as a group of 5–10. A shared ritual instead of an ordinary get-together — a favourite with friends, families and corporate teams.

Healing (SPA)
Signature SPA care in the bathhouse: steaming opens up the skin, a soda-lemon peel renews it, sound meditation in the steam room relaxes you and a warm honey application nourishes.
TipThe main goal is skin care. A programme centred on your skin: afterwards it feels smooth, hydrated and rested.

Birch grove
All about the birch venik: three rounds in a fragrant birch-scented steam room, a deep steam on birch veniks and a soap-and-birch rub-down — for clear skin and easy breathing.
TipBreathing and soft steam matter most. Soft birch steam — the best choice when easy breathing and clear skin matter most.

Bathhouse zdrava. 7 steams
A bathhouse retreat rooted in ancient tradition: seven rounds in the steam room, each with its own purpose — for the body, emotions and inner state. Two masters guide beginners and experienced guests alike.

What a bathhouse programme is
A bathhouse programme is not just steam-room rental but a complete ritual guided by an experienced master. They light the wood-fired stove, lead you from a light warm-up to a full opening, and alternate rounds in the steam room with a cool plunge and tea breaks.
Every programme differs in length, set of treatments and depth of immersion, but they share one thing: you arrive with nothing to carry, and the firewood, veniks, sheets and refreshments are already taken care of for you.
What every programme includes
- Rental of the wood-fired bathhouse for the whole programme
- A guiding experienced master — from the first round to the tea afterwards
- Steaming with veniks, contrast treatments and rest between rounds
- Tea ceremony and drinking water: herbal tea, honey, jam, bagels, seasonal fruit
- All bathhouse equipment: veniks, sheets, felt hat, slippers, towel
- Herbal infusions and aroma oils

Questions and answers
Frequently asked questions about bath programmes
01How is a bathhouse programme different from an ordinary bathhouse rental?
We work only with full bathhouse programmes and do not rent the bathhouse by the hour. In every programme a master leads the whole process — warm-up, steaming with veniks, contrast treatments, tea ceremony — and adjusts the pace to your company, rather than simply opening the door to a room.
02How long does a programme last and how many people can I bring?
Depending on the programme — from 2 to 4+ hours. The base programmes are designed for 1–2 guests; each additional guest is charged separately. For a group of 5–10 there is a dedicated "Group Steaming" programme. The administrator will give you the exact price for your group size.
03What's already included in the programme price?
Rental of the wood-fired bathhouse for the whole programme, a guiding master, veniks, sheets, a felt hat, slippers and a towel, herbal infusions and aroma oils, drinking water, plus a tea ceremony with honey, jam, bagels and fruit. There is nothing extra to pay on the spot for the base set.
04Which programme should I choose for a first visit?
The best choice for a first visit is "Inspiration". It is the gentlest way into a wood-fired bathhouse: the full ritual with Tibetan singing-bowl sound therapy, steaming with veniks, a contrast plunge and a salt scrub, but without excessive strain on the body.
05Can I come with children?
Yes. Children under 12 visit for free if they do not need individual whisking. Children’s whisking as a separate service costs 400 UAH.
06Can I add extra treatments to a programme?
Yes. You can add massages, scrubs, wraps, special steaming techniques or an individual plunge to any programme — every option and its price is on the "Prices" page. Tell us your wishes when booking so the master can plan the time.
07What should I pack for the bathhouse?
A change of underwear and a good mood are enough. We prepare the towel, two sheets, hat, slippers, basic toiletries, veniks, tea and drinking water, so there is no need to bring food or drinks either.
08How do I get there and where can I park?
The bathhouse is in Osokorky, 11A Tsentralna St, 400 metres from the Kozachok restaurant. There is room for guests’ cars right next to the bathhouse, and we welcome guests daily from 10:00 to 22:00.
09How do I book and is a deposit required?
Call, write on Telegram, Viber or WhatsApp, or leave a request in the form on the home page. A small deposit is required to confirm the booking — the administrator will confirm the amount and payment method. To move your visit to another date, tell the administrator at least a day ahead; to cancel the booking, at least three days before the programme.
