Located in the small town of Freestone, California, just a few miles from Bodega Bay, in Sonoma County lies Osmosis Day Spa Sanctuary, a hidden gem offering a unique wellness experience. During my recent visit, I fell in love with the serene atmosphere and hospitality.

One of the highlights of Osmosis is its exclusive Cedar enzyme bath. Osmosis is the only destination in the United States to offer such an experience. Arriving at the spa, I was immediately drawn to its beautiful garden near the entrance.

The warmth and kindness of the staff further enhanced my visit. From the moment I entered the small shop, I was greeted with genuine hospitality and guided to a dressing room complete with lockers, robes, and all the amenities needed for a comfortable experience. The attention to detail, such as offering shoes in my size, exemplified their commitment to guest satisfaction and making sure that the place stays clean.

We started this experience in the tea room and garden where we enjoyed warm tea in a heated room with a beautiful view of the tea garden. I couldn’t resist the urge to step outside and take in the beauty of the garden while I enjoyed my tea. 

Entering the cedar room, We were given time to settle into the bath and cover ourselves with the cedar before the specialist entered and fully covered our bodies from the chest down. The specialist’s thoughtful gestures, like offering water and cool towels, added to the overall sense of relaxation. Far from being interruptions, these moments felt like welcomed treats, enhancing the experience.

Following the Cedar enzyme bath, my spouse and I were told that our things would be moved to the spa’s well-equipped shower room which is next door to the cedar bath area. We were given instructions on how to get to the shower and given mittens to help with the removal of the cedar.

After our showers, we enjoyed in the meditation garden, a peaceful retreat. We had a 30-minute wait in between services and decided to experience the beauty of nature. Although it was dark outside we enjoyed the peacefulness that the garden had to offer.

Our journey ended after a couples massage, where I received a Swedish massage with extra attention to my shoulders and upper back. The therapist’s skill and attentiveness left me feeling pampered and renewed.
