Watsu is a gentle aquatic therapy at Orvis Hot Springs, performed in a dedicated warm, non-chlorinated pool measuring 16 feet across and 4 feet deep. A therapist cradles and guides you through the water, using its buoyancy for deep stretching and release that's hard to reach on a massage table. The warmth and weightlessness let your body unwind in ways dry-land bodywork can't.

The session unfolds slowly: you float, the therapist supports your head and limbs, and the water carries your weight so joints and muscles open without strain. It's suited to anyone looking for a quiet, restorative experience rather than a vigorous treatment.

Watsu runs on a limited schedule, so plan ahead and book your time. The private warm pool sets it apart from the main springs, giving you a focused, one-on-one setting for the work.
