We kicked everything off with the magnetic table and let me tell you- it's AMAZING how much mobility and the range of motion I have in my right shoulder now. Constant stress and hunching over a computer leads to lots of neck/shoulder pains and headaches. I had some pain before I laid on the table, popped up feeling good as new.
When I walked into KUR, the first thing I noticed was how clean and peaceful the place is. It has a European feel with a dash of southern hospitality. I was greeted by Dave, one of the owners, and his daughters who also work at the spa. I thought I would just be shown the way to the sauna, but instead I was offered a refreshing alkaline water with a frozen, organic strawberry, and given the tour and story behind KUR. I won't spoil the story, but I would highly suggest you hear the purpose behind what Dave and Renata have put together at KUR. It's much more than a business for this family. They truly care about each customer who comes through the door, and they are committed to helping people improve their health and sense of well being.
I'm the kind of girl who gets excited about organic juice, Pilates and natural medicine. Yep, I'm a California girl living in Charlotte. While I love living here, there are certain things I miss. So when my girlfriend told me about the Himalayan salt room and infrared sauna at KUR, I knew I had to go. Then, when my doctor told me about the benefits of infrared sauna therapy, I booked my first appointment. To give you an idea of how awesome this place is, I've been twice in the last 5 days.
There's one other machine at KUR that I have not tried yet. It promises to bring much-needed pain relief to people who suffer from muscle and joint pain. Once I try it out, I promise to report back. I HIGHLY recommend KUR. I promise you wont be disappointed. Please note, I am not a friend or family member, I'm simply a thrilled customer who wants to spread the word.
The entire visit I was consistently offered the delicious strawberry alkaline water (hydration is super important!) and David and Renate answered any and all questions, and were incredibly gracious hosts.
I left feeling lighter, relaxed, and could actually breathe through my nose (my allergies are bad) after being in the salt room! I cannot recommend Kur enough!
Renate gave me such a relaxing foot soak before the infrared sauna. The choice of wonderful essential oil sugar scrubs is just one of the many details and services offered. I jumped into the infrared sauna and it was awesome! I was in a private, single suite and for 16 minutes I quietly meditated/relaxed and then Renate knocked, placed rose water/orange oil Pass on my eyes and spritzed me with a similar mix. It was heavenly! She provided a timer with 15 more minutes set, which was so helpful because I definitely nodded off for a bit.
Visit 2:
After the tour, I was offered a foot bath with Frankincense infused salt to help relax the body and mind. I was then guided to my private suite where a sauna was adjusted to a power to help me with my health goals. The cool thing about this sauna is it is a bed with a cover which allows the user to fully relax, while the infrared waves warm every part of the body. After 15 minutes, one of Dave's daughter's offered a cool and refreshing spritz of rose water on my face and cold compresses for my eyes. Once my session was complete, I was offered more water and a homemade chocolate covered strawberry. Delightful!
Visit one:
Kur Health Spa is Charlotte's newest secret. David and Renate are so kind and welcoming- I felt like I've known them for years! I booked the New Client VIP Experience which included the infrared sauna and salt room. David kindly offered me strawberry alkaline water and gave me a tour of the spa.
Once I was done in the infrared sauna I went to the salt room. I relaxed in a wonderful chair and breathed in the salt and just relaxed. It was the perfect way to cool down from the sauna.
On my tour during visit 1, I learned of the antiviral and antibacterial benefits of a salt room. I was struggling with congestion after getting the flu so I thought I would give it a try. When I arrived, Dave and his wife Renata greeted me with hugs and welcomed me back into their spa like I was family. Before the salt room experience, I was invited to a foot bath with essential oil. This time, I experienced a complimentary foot scrub and massage by Renata. O.M.G. it was better than massages I've gotten during a pedicure, not to mention my feet were silky smooth after. Renata is an RN, and you can tell how much she enjoys caring for people.
Ok, let me tell you this isn't some salt room with salt lamps or a salt wall that you sit in and hope the salt somehow makes its way to you. While there is a salt wall, there is also very finely ground Himalayan salt sprayed into the air. Don't worry, its so fine that you can't even tell you're breathing it in. Renata told me to inhale through nose and mouth to really let the salt work in my sinuses and airway. I'll admit, I was a bit skeptical about the benefits of sitting in this room for 30 minutes. That was until my sinuses cleared and my cough disappeared. This is going to be a regular visit for allergy and cold relief. And during the Summer, I'll enjoy replenishing my electrolytes in the salt room as well.
