AIKA Spa

A Sanctuary in the Forest to Escape, Slow down, and Connect

AIKA is a sanctuary in the forest located in the Squamish Valley, British Columbia. It offers a unique opportunity to disconnect from daily stresses and reconnect with yourself, your people, and mother nature through time-honored wellness practices and nature immersion. The name “AIKA” means “spending time” in Finnish, reflecting the core values of mindfulness, connection, and well-being. Founded by local Squamish parents Emily and Tristan Jenkin, AIKA brings the benefits of hot and cold therapy to the Sea-to-Sky corridor featuring a number of beautiful hand built wood fired saunas, while also providing a beautiful wilderness retreat space for special events, gatherings, and personalized experiences.

They offer private bookings for up to 10 guests 7 days a week featuring the immersive AIKA experience (3 hours), and the AIKA private day retreat (6 hours). They also offer self-care socials and wellness wednesdays socials which are healthy community gatherings.

The AIKA experience is in service of all humans seeking deeper levels of connection with self, with each other, and with nature.

"It’s your wellness journey, and we’re here to help. We look forward to welcoming you." - The AIKA team
