The relaxation area is a dedicated space in Pulse’s SPA areas, designed for peaceful rest. At its centre is a stainless steel fireplace, surrounded by large, comfortable leather armchairs. The comfortable setting lets you unwind and rest after a workout or SPA treatments.
Together, these features create a cosy atmosphere, where you can simply close your eyes, spend time alone with your thoughts, or enjoy a peaceful moment with friends.
There are no active treatments or exercises here. Instead, you can slow down and ease naturally from your workout or other spa activities into relaxation.

The zone’s main purpose is to create the conditions for complete relaxation without additional physical exertion. The soft armchairs let your body rest, while the view of the flames adds to the cosy atmosphere.
At the same time, the space is ideal both for spending time alone and for quiet conversation. This makes resting between spa activities an experience in its own right.
After an intense workout or a busy day, your body and mind need a slower pace. The relaxation zone offers a place to sit comfortably and leave physical exertion behind.
This period of passive rest complements physical recovery after exercise and helps you gradually transition into a state of calm. The zone doesn’t replace active recovery methods; it complements them with time without additional exertion.
The peaceful surroundings also encourage mental relaxation. This allows your spa visit to end with greater emotional comfort and a sense of balance.
The relaxation zone requires no special preparation or prior experience. It’s a great option if you’d like to add more rest to your visit to Pulse.
The zone is ideal if you:
It’s best to use the zone according to your own sense of comfort, rather than following a set duration for your stay.
Unlike the sauna or steam room, the relaxation area has no set cycles or recommended duration. You can stay for as long as you feel comfortable.
After your workout or another spa facility, freshen up, make yourself comfortable and take a few minutes for complete relaxation. Then you can move on to another facility or make the relaxation area the final stop of your spa visit.
At Pulse spa areas, you must wear swimwear and flip-flops, and outdoor shoes are not allowed.
If you want to drink water, use a sealed, non-glass bottle.
The relaxation area is a space for rest, so the rules of conduct differ from those in the gym or active spa facilities.
Follow a few basic rules:
These rules help every visitor enjoy the quiet and comfort the area was created for.
The relaxation zone does not create significant physical or thermal strain.
Physical strain: 1/5
Relaxation effect: 5/5
Suitable after a workout: 5/5
The fireplace area is the main highlight. Here, a standard relaxation space is enhanced by a stainless-steel fireplace fueled by biofuel. Large leather armchairs are arranged around it, creating a comfortable place to unwind.
This gives the area its own atmosphere and makes it one of the most peaceful parts of your spa visit.
The relaxation area can naturally complement various spa activities.
For example, after a sauna or steam room, you can cool down and then rest. After using the jacuzzi or Aquatonic pool the area makes a fitting final stop where you can simply unwind.
Access with a CoolFit card depends on the specific club and its terms. At some locations, the card includes access to the spa area, although additional restrictions may apply.
