My hubby and I love going to Sisu. We lived in Japan and South Korea for 15years and absolutely love our Saunas and Ice baths. We've been to a lot of the local Saunas in the Northern Rivers and have enjoyed them however, it's hard to find one with a really hot Sauna and an Icy cold ice bath. Sisu definitely has both and a beautiful magnesium bath. We love that we can have a membership and go a few times a week. It's always clean and well cared for and the staff are all so friendly and welcoming. We really appreciate having the venu in Ballina which is close to home for us. Thanks Sisu
I was so excited when I heard SISU had opened up in Ballina! This place is not pretentious. Every staff member I’ve met is so welcoming and friendly. The packages on offer are reasonably priced and I love how easy it is to book in a sesh online. The facilities are well laid out, thoughtful and kept very clean. I love the smell of cedar as I approach the doorway, my senses immediately start to relax. I’d never been in an infared sauna before, but I’m now a convert. I like that they switch it up though, so I still have the choice, and you know what you’re getting ahead of time when you book online. I’ve been like Goldilocks with the 3 plunge pools, I’ve now found my “just right”…. PS I’m a double figures girl ☺️ I could say the warm soak at the end is the best bit, but honestly, I love it all! Including the stop off on the lounge, for a freshly brewed herbal tea on the way out. I feel energised and my brain activated for the busy day ahead. The clientele is a good mix of ages, stages and genders, again, nothing pretentious about this place, or the people. I’m an old overweight lady with too many aches n pains and major life stressors, but coming here at least once a week is doing wonders for my physical and mental health! I’m now eating better, sleeping better and exercising more often. THANK YOU! 🙏💃🏻🥰
The perfect way to start your day & unwind of an evening. I’ve absolutely loved adding this to my weekly routine, it’s helped so much with recovery from training & just overall mental clarity. Equipped with a range of ice baths, the option of traditional or infrared sauna, a magnesium infused jacuzzi & complimentary tea. The space is so beautiful & priced well too ✨
I was so excited when I heard this place was opening and it exceeded my expectations. Such a great atmosphere and all the staff are so lovely. It has become my favourite part of my weeks. The best part is the sauna can be traditional or infared, depending on the time of day. Highly recommend a visit here if you want a relaxing experience 🤎
Sisu Ballina is a fantastic local space. It’s always kept clean, hygienic, and is thoughtfully designed, with high-quality sauna and facilities. The small group sizes make each visit comfortable and easy to enjoy, and the change rooms on site are simple and convenient. The staff are kind, approachable, and knowledgeable, which really adds to the overall experience. It’s great to see a local business run with such care and attention to detail. I go twice a week and always look forward to my sessions here. Having just added their compression sessions, I’m excited to try it. Sisu is only getting better. it’s a place I’m very glad to have in Ballina.
