Mind Oasis: a massage for the mind at Rituals

We are all familiar with a body massage, but a massage for the mind? Still a new concept for many—and highly recommended! Rituals has fully elaborated this with the concept Mind Oasis: a place where your mind can completely relax through various treatments with sounds, scents and breathing exercises.

This zen experience can be found in the huge Rituals store on the Spui, among other places (House of Rituals). As soon as you walk in and take the stairs up, you step into the Mind Oasis. Surrounded by the characteristic Rituals scents (we love them), calm music and lovely plopping chairs, you automatically enter relaxation mode. Simply put: a spa for your mind.

The Mind Oasis

The Mind Oasis

For the Mind Oasis you can choose from several treatments including the Brain Massage and the Hydro Massage. Both are aimed at relaxation, balance and a complete reset for body and mind. And no, you don't have to set aside a whole day for this (although you can of course!). Schedule it during your lunch break, after a big deadline or if you want to escape the hustle and bustle of the shopping streets during a day of shopping. The treatments start at 20 to 55 minutes. fine tune: No stress, literally—you can just walk in or reserve a spot online.

The treatments

The treatments

You can choose from different treatments from 20 to 55 minutes. It is also possible to combine treatments. At the Hydro Massage You lie on a waterbed that simultaneously massages your body. Next to you hangs a tablet with which you can adjust the intensity of the massage, music and scent. Above you hang red light therapy lamps that boost collagen production (provides a rejuvenating effect). Sounds good, right? When you choose the brain massage, you can choose between a 30 or 55 minute treatment. You lie in a separate cabin on a zero-gravity chair, which brings your brain into a deep, relaxed state—comparable to the restorative effect of deep sleep (theta state). This is due to the combination of vibrations and 4D sounds in the cabin. During this treatment, you catch up on sleep. If you choose the short treatment (30 minutes), it feels like you've had two hours of sleep. Yes, really—it's possible!
