Uppliva Sauna & Steam offers a truly rejuvenating experience that transports you to the heart of Nordic tradition. The Nordic Circuit was a perfect blend of relaxation and refreshment—starting with the warm cedar sauna, followed by cooling off with invigorating rain showers and the refreshing plunge pool. The intimate atmosphere made it feel personal, even with other guests around. The addition of herbal tea and citrus water was a nice touch, and the spa package options, including massages and facials, made the visit even more special. Highly recommend for anyone looking to unwind, refresh, and recharge!

Amazing spa!! One of Ottawas gems, this place is so clean and well kept, the staff is so welcoming and friendly! I’ve come here a handful of times and always feeling so refreshed and relaxed. I recommend booking the massage package with 2.5h circuit!

What a beautiful hidden gem in Hintonburg! I visited yesterday and had an absolutely fabulous, relaxing experience. The staff are kind, attentive, and highly knowledgeable. The intimate space and limited number of members create a nice atmosphere, which I really appreciated. I booked the 2.5 hour circuit and enjoyed every minute of it. The facilities were spotless and well maintained, and I especially appreciated seeing a staff member regularly tidying and folding in the relaxation area. It added to the sense of care and tranquility. The selection of books and magazines felt thoughtfully curated, adding an extra touch of inspiration to the experience. The only drawback I seemed to notice was that members arriving for massage and facial services had to pass through the relaxation area. At times, their conversations were noticeably louder than the otherwise peaceful ambiance, which was slightly disruptive. Overall, this spa is a wonderful experience, and I can’t wait to return!

An amazing Hot-Cold- Rest Circuit. It is so nice to be able to go into a steam or dry Sauna that is out of your daily Gym facility or a big Spa; although this is an awesome relaxing spa experience, but without an overwhelming high volume of people (Is more private and quiet). I’ve been a client since it opened- post Pandemic and it has never disappoint in schedule, sanitation, organization, but most importantly kind and welcoming Staff. If you are looking for a peaceful and relaxing experience that benefits your mental and physical health, Uppliva is a great spot to go alone, friends or partner. Enjoy and Cheers!

If you’re looking for a peaceful, rejuvenating escape in Ottawa, Uppliva Nordic Spa in Westboro is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere exudes tranquility and calm. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure you feel welcome and taken care of throughout your visit. The sauna is perfectly warm, offering a relaxing experience that melts away stress. The steam room is equally fantastic, with the right balance of heat and humidity—ideal for clearing the mind and relaxing the body. Plus, everything is immaculately clean, which is always a huge plus for any spa experience. One of the best parts is the peaceful ambiance. It's quiet and serene, allowing you to fully unwind without any distractions. And with such an affordable price, Uppliva offers incredible value for a premium experience. If you’re in need of some self-care, this spa is definitely worth the visit. I’ll certainly be back!

I had a head massage with Shannon and my experience was above and beyond fantastic. She was super friendly and kind, I felt super comfortable with her and my massage was so relaxing. The spa has an amazing atmosphere, it’s super clean, and all of the staff is extremely friendly. I will be going back again and again!

I've been patiently waiting to visit this place since it opened and had the opportunity to do so on Saturday November 13 and was duly impressed! As soon as you walk in you are greeted with a warm and calming atmosphere. The decor is simple and beautiful. The faciilties are impeccable; eucalyptus steam room, dry sauna, cold plunge pool, showers and resting rooms are lovely! The owner, Maureen was on site and made sure we were aware of all the options including all natural foot soaks, scrubs, masks all of which can be purchased and applied during the visit (we did a scrub). There are juices and teas available as well. A wonderful way to spend precious time.

I took my niece for a special outing here in early March, as I was not willing to go to an outdoor Nordic spa in winter weather. I am thrilled to discover this indoor option in my own neighbourhood! Everything was spotless, well thought out, beautifully designed, and in excellent working condition. The eucalyptus steam room was my favourite thing. This is an intimate setting that makes the experience quite different from larger Nordic spas. The 16-person limit was just right. In 2.5 hours, we did 2 full thermal cycles plus foot soaks and facial treatments—we were very surprised at how fantastic the treatments were, even calming/resolving an allergic reaction to a new detergent that my niece had arrived with on her face. The treatment bar staff member was helpful, knowledgeable, and lovely. We snacked at MooShu first, then ate at LaBonita after—truly a delightful way to silent quality time without leaving my own ‘hood.
