The Health Spa at the Bug provides a beautiful and relaxing atmosphere for travelers to restore their bodies after their adventures in Yosemite. A $10 day pass includes access to a custom 10-person stainless steel hot tub, cold-rain shower, cedar hot-rock sauna, and a 7-jet shower in our deluxe changing rooms. Guests can also receive massages, reiki treatments, body scrubs, specialty baths in private jet-tubs, and practice personal or group yoga. All spa rooms open out to large sunny decks with seating and scenic views of the Bear Creek Canyon for dining, sipping tea, or simply relaxing in the embrace of nature.

Our large tub is cleaned naturally with UV light and food-grade hydrogen peroxide. Besides the obvious benefits of not exposing the body to the toxic properties of chlorine, the healing effects of soaking in hydrogen peroxide are numerous. Guests can also choose a more concentrated hydrogen peroxide infusion in a private whirlpool bath to amplify the therapeutic effects and get extra oxygen back in the body.

Hot herbal baths and herbal scrubs with sauna are available that combine organic formulas with essential oils. These specialty baths and rubs are aimed at targeting specific ailments, and are designed especially for our guests by a local herbalist with the purest quality organic ingredients.

We offer nearly a full range of massage and bodywork techniques including: Swedish, Deep Tissue, Acupressure, Shiatsu, Myofacial Release, Sports Massage, and Reiki energy healing. Waxing, Facials, and a wide range of skin treatments are offered. Appointments can be made in advance or upon arrival.

The Studio holds yoga classes on Saturday mornings and Sunday evenings, On occasion we have special events and workshops. All fitness levels are welcome, as our yoga instructors are excellent at adapting the class or session to meet each person where they are at.

The Bug Spa is meant to grow and change over time to accommodate learning, healing, healthfulness, fitness and relaxation. Be sure to look for quarterly workshops on our Events page, and sign up for our email list to be informed of these events.

HOT TUB / HOT ROCK SAUNA / COLD RAIN SHOWER
$10 Access all day, open 10am to 10pm

Large Cedar Sauna with Hot Rocks, herbal oils, and scents, Jump under the cold rain shower adjacent after sauna use. Completely entrancing signature stainless steel hot tub.

Our hot tub is kept bacteria-free without the use of harsh chemicals. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and ultra violet light are used to maintain the tub, as well as to support your overall wellness by delivering much-needed oxygen to your cells.

Oxygen carries the energy of the sun to sustain all of life. Due to pollution and over-exposure to environmental toxins we need to put back the missing oxygen. The most common cause of human death worldwide is anaerobic microbes. Anaerobic organisms cannot live in oxygen! Water borne anaerobes are the major cause of disease in the world today. Since our bodies are mostly water and our cells love oxygen, we can safely and correctly put special forms of oxygen into and on our bodies to be absorbed directly through the skin. Bathing in h3o is a highly effective way to get extra oxygen into the body. This method has been around for a long time. The heat of the bathtub water opens the pores in the skin and enables the capillary bed of blood vessels below the skin to absorb the peroxide.
