Spa

Wellness World Sole Uno is part of the Parkresort Rheinfelden and prides itself on offering the best international spa treatments, from Siberia to the orient.

The elite traveler can experience the Nordic contrast of the fire-and- ice pools, the hot and cold pleasures of the tropical rain, or even refreshing alpine waterfalls. The intensive saltwater pool is salted to 12% allowing you to gently float and let any anxieties slip away. To complete your day enjoy the sauna, followed by a divine massage or beauty treatment; truly the best way to achieve total relaxation.

Signature treatment: The Birch Ritual. This begins with a sauna session followed by a traditional birch massage that involves hitting the body lightly with fresh birch branches. Combined with a second sauna session, this treatment is very popular among Basel residents and is excellent for stimulating blood circulation. As the essential oils in the birch are released, guests experience a welcome sense of relaxation.
