About

Banya 5 has run as a social wellness space in Seattle since 2004. The spa is built around hydrotherapy and body treatments, with its sauna, steam room and pools at the center of a visit.

The spa states its mission as building an inclusive, respectful community where people can refresh their bodies and minds in a social setting. Conversation is welcome, and it is not a silent spa. The business describes its wellness experience as unlike anything else in the city, which is its own claim.

A typical visit starts with a reservation for two-hour spa entry. Facilities include a parilka dry sauna, a Turkish steam room with eucalyptus, a salt water tepid pool, a hot pool, a cold plunge pool, and a tea lounge with a movement room and a nap room. Complimentary custom blended herbal teas and lemon water are served in the tea lounge. Swimsuits are required, guests must be 18 or older, and groups are capped at six. The spa recommends using the sauna and pools before a scrub, wrap or massage.

Massage sessions combine deep tissue, pressure point, myofascial and classic Swedish techniques, adjusted to each client. Facials use plant-based products the salon describes as hand-crafted, with an optional LED add-on. Body treatments include a salt and honey scrub with scalp work and a kaolin clay mud wrap. Hatha Yoga is taught on Sundays, and Yin with Healing Touch on Thursdays.

The spa's stated mission is an inclusive, respectful community for rejuvenating body and mind in a social setting. It recommends using the sauna and pools before scrubs, wraps and massage, and facials and massages can be booked without spa entry while other treatments require it.

A social setting where conversation is encouraged rather than a quiet, silent spa.
