What Our Clients Say

Real experiences from the Balnea community.

I had the most amazing experience with ice bath, saunas, spa, full body massage, facial and leg compression. I've never experienced anything like it and felt so relaxed afterwards. The ladies were so kind and went out of their way.

Belinda Bishop

I have been using the beautiful facilities at Balnea for over a month and highly recommend it to anyone looking to really reach optimal health. The staff are always so lovely and helpful.

Prudence Beale

My partner and I use Balnea facilities at least three times a week. We love it! We feel healthier and it gives us a chance to take some time off our busy schedule to connect. Highly recommend!

Sanatani Rombola

Fabulous set up! Staff are enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Such a reasonable price compared to Melbourne. Skin feels wonderful and I know I will have a good sleep tonight.

Lara Anderson

This place is absolutely incredible. The hot-cold therapy does wonders for my health and wellbeing, both physical and mental. So well designed with a clean yet warm finish.

Dominic Rocher

So good to have this available in Murwillumbah. I use the cold water therapy to manage my inflammation. Love that I can jump in and out of this with the sauna. Compression boots are great if you've been hitting the gym or mountains hard :)
