Private events are quoted individually.
Othership Yorkville
Othership's Yorkville location on Bloor Street West pairs a Western Red Cedar performance sauna with eight ice baths and guided breathwork.

Guests change into a swimsuit before entering the social commons.

Miraj Hammam Spa by Caudalie Paris
Miraj Hammam Spa sits on the fifth floor of the Shangri-La Hotel on University Avenue. Its modern hammam is booked privately and exclusively for each guest, so the ritual of purification happens in solitude rather than on a communal floor. Sixty minutes of treatment time also opens the hotel health club's steam room, sauna, jacuzzi and lap pool. Guests are advised to arrive an hour early to make the most of the pool and health club amenities.
