Awaken for Wellness

Awaken for Wellness sits in the Macalester-Groveland neighborhood at 1821 St Clair Ave, closer to a targeted recovery studio than a traditional day spa. The core offerings are four therapies: full spectrum infrared sauna, float therapy tanks, salt therapy (a dedicated salt room) and cold plunge, each bookable individually or combined into a longer session.

Beyond the core four, the site lists additional modalities including ONYX red light therapy, PEMF, a sound healing room and an Optimization Room that pairs PEMF with red light and a sound bed. There's also an OligoScan option, a hand scan used to check mineral balance and heavy metal load as part of building a personalized wellness plan. Massage is offered as well, rounding out the treatment menu.

This is an adults-only space geared toward solo visits rather than groups, and it operates on a reservation model rather than walk-in access. Day passes are available. The facility falls into the moderate price tier, positioning it between budget wellness chains and higher-end destination spas.

Hours run seven days a week starting at 8:30am. Tuesday through Thursday the studio stays open until 9pm, while Monday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday close at 7pm, giving early risers and after-work visitors similar access most days. Given the emphasis on sauna, cold plunge and float, this suits people looking for a focused recovery or biohacking-style session rather than a full spa day with multiple treatment rooms and lounging areas.

For exact treatment pricing, session lengths and whether specific add-ons like the Optimization Room require separate booking, it's worth checking directly with Awaken for Wellness before arriving.
