How to Keep Your Healthy New Year’s Resolutions

Many of us see the beginning of the New Year as an opportunity for a fresh start. One of the most popular New Year’s resolutions include health goals like diet, weight loss and regular exercises.

However, most people make health resolutions way too hard which leads to quitting them in the first few weeks of January. That is why it’s important to make your healthy resolutions that are actually easily achievable and enjoyable and therefore can be followed for longer or even for life.

One of the healthiest habits you can add to your lifestyle is regularly visiting Banya for an amazing wellness and spa experience. We pride ourselves of our authentic treatment Parenie – an invigorating thermal massage, that uses leafy and fragrant bundle of birch, oak or eucalyptus twigs and lots of hot steam. Other effective treatments include organic body scrubs, deep tissue massages, mud masks and aloe body treatments.

Visiting Banya just once a week helps to beat stress, help the body to detox and burn more than 300 calories per session. Parenie itself boosts blood circulation, improves the immune system and relieves muscle tension & stress. The cold contrast of the plunge pool helps with quicker post exercise recovery and brings an immense invigoration. WARNING: It’s highly addictive! But it’s a nice addiction to have!

In order to keep up with this healthy habit, why not chose one of our membership options. You will then be able to visit us as often as you like. With a pay monthly option you may cancel any time should your New Year’s resolution proves to be hard to keep up.
