Most treatments and services utilize locally sourced herbs and are wellness practices inspired by the surrounding Austrian region. The luxury spa also offers fitness activities catered to each season such as lakeside yoga, paddleboard sessions, and botanical walks with the property’s herbal expert.

Insider’s Tip: At Rosewood Schloss Fuschl’s Asaya Spa, guests are welcomed to schedule specific therapy sessions for aromatherapy, art creativity, and sound healing with an on-site advisor. One benefit of this type of therapy is that guests have the opportunity to continue programming after the conclusion of their stay with Schloss therapists offering select remote classes.

Bonus: In addition to a robust list of treatments and activities offered at Rosewood Schloss Fuschl, the spa’s grounding goal is for visitors to reconnect with nature and their surroundings during their time at the resort. Through unique, place-specific programming like alpine herb walks guided by a local herbologist, guests will center themselves for a mindful and refreshing escape to the outdoors.

Spa Snacks: Alongside certain dynamic aging programs and relaxing treatments, guests can indulge in rejuvenating beverages served to cleanse and refresh the body and mind.

For the Holistic Detox program, a curated retreat encapsulating detox body scrubs and lymphatic drainage services also includes detox beverages that guests can drink three times a day for a natural cleansing process.

Guests can also enjoy a refreshing chamomile tea with the property’s very own mountain honey when receiving the Schloss Fuschl Honey Glow Body Scrub.

Splurge Treatment: For guests looking to embrace the essence of Austrian serenity, the Lake View Total Bliss & Relax offering is the ultimate treatment for a revitalizing body scrub and relaxing full-body and scalp massage. With the body scrub containing local herbs and special fine mineral salt from the surrounding alps, visitors can truly embrace the peaceful ambiance of the countryside landscape.

Insider’s Favorite: The Herbal Garden Lavender Bliss Treatment starts with a gentle body scrub of local ingredients from the countryside including salt, thyme, rosemary, and lavender herbs, followed by essential oils and a fango mineral mud body scrub. This treatment offers deep-cleansing, detoxifying properties, and exfoliation, leaving the skin feeling soft and refreshed.

Most Unique Treatment: The property’s Biohacking Program is the ultimate “self-care package” to improve overall physical, emotional, and mental well-being. As one of the first Rosewood properties to offer this retreat, guests can indulge in a 2 or 3-day specialized itinerary that uses cryotherapy to address inflammation along with bioelectric impedance and bone density analysis to combat any pain, discomfort or irritation.
