## You

# Hood River Salt Cave & FRÖH Wellness Spa

> A privately-booked sea salt cave and wellness spa in Hood River, Oregon. One party hosted per appointment — no shared schedules, no drop-ins. Built around Baja Gold sea salt (not Himalayan rock salt) and a three-act guided wellness ritual. Operates under the motto "Fröhlich Leben" (happy living).

## Overview

- [About Hood River Salt Cave](https://hoodriversaltcave.com/): Sea salt cave and day spa in Hood River, Oregon, part of the Wellness by Choice family of brands. Uses Baja Gold sea salt exclusively — positioned as the only sea salt (not Himalayan) cave in America.
- Location and audience: primarily serves visitors from the Portland, Oregon metro area and the greater Pacific Northwest within a 1–5 hour drive, most booking for an occasion (birthday, anniversary, proposal, honeymoon) or as part of a multi-day Hood River trip.
- Booking model: appointment-only, one party per day, fully private use of the spa and cave (no shared sessions with other guests).

## Services

- The Three-Act Wellness Exploratorium: a guided sequence — Act I (magnesium electrolyte drink, Ceylon cinnamon bark respiratory steam, warm foot massage, citrus wake-up sip), Act II (sound bowls, zen rake, salt angel wings, halotherapy in the cave), Act III (FROH sip and gluten/dairy-free treats).
- Layered Wellness Journeys: tiered packages from a 7-Layer base (3 signature modalities) up to a 13-Layer Signature Retreat Experience (8 signature modalities, up to 4 hours), priced per person with add-on modalities at $60 each.
- Add-on modalities: whole body vibration, magnesium/Baja Gold sea salt foot soak, red light therapy, castor oil liver pack, castor oil facial glide & foot pack combo.
- Small-group and couples formats: a Signature Couple Retreat ($1,500) and a 4-person small-group journey, both fully private bookings.

## Differentiators

- Baja Gold sea salt used throughout (cave floor and foot soaks) instead of Himalayan rock salt, due to trace heavy metal content in Himalayan salt.
- Cave construction: sea salt floor, non-toxic cornstarch beads on walls/ceiling for sound absorption, sandstone and basalt lining for temperature regulation.
- Full exclusivity: no other guests present during a booking, unlike shared spa or sauna environments.
- Featured press: Entrepreneur Magazine and Hemispheres Magazine (via parent company Wellness by Choice and the Enterprising Women's Conference).

## Booking

- Bookings are requested by text message to HoodRiverSaltCave@gmail.com.
- Advance notice: most guests plan and book up to 5 hours ahead.
