7 Wellness Spots to Stretch, Sweat and Zen Out in Cleveland

When you think of Cleveland, you may think of craft beer, die-hard sports fans and lakefront views, but did you know it’s also a great place to find your Zen? Whether you’re looking to sweat it out in a hot yoga class, get your chakras realigned, or just forget your week, Cleveland has plenty of wellness oases to help you breathe deep and de-stress. Here’s where to stretch, sweat and maybe even achieve enlightenment (or at least touch your toes) in The Land.

SoulSpace

This Detroit-Shoreway wellness haven is one of Cleveland’s best, offering everything from a Float Tank and Cold Plunge to red light therapy. Plus, with free perks like the Relaxation Lounge and Outdoor Terrace, it’s the perfect spot to hit pause on life and indulge in some well-earned “me time.”

Ascend Fitness & Spa

We don’t know about you, but we’ve always dreamed of spending hours getting pampered at a luxury hotel spa — and The Day Spa at Ascend is the perfect place to do it. You can turn self-care into a full-day experience with customized facials, rejuvenating massages and express beauty treatments.

Yoga Strong

If you’re looking to sweat it out, Yoga Strong on Prospect Ave E has you covered — literally, in sweat. This downtown studio offers power vinyasa, yin yoga, body sculpting, pilates and aerial silks. Just be careful with those silks — getting stuck ten feet in the air is a heck of a way to extend savasana.

The Studio Cleveland

Nestled in the East Bank of The Flats, The Studio Cleveland lets you find your inner peace despite the overflowing email inbox you may be ignoring. The best part? It’s not just yoga and aerial silks. They also offer massages and spa services. Basically, it's full-service and full zen.

Be Fitness

Relaxation looks different for everyone. For some, it might mean trying a pole fitness class for the first time. Not only will you have a great story to tell, but you’ll also get a killer workout (hello, upper body strength). If you’re not quite ready to channel that side of yourself, Be Fitness also offers Pilates reformer, aerial silks, Lyra, yoga and barre classes.

Raw Esthetics Wellness Spa

If your idea of relaxation involves doing absolutely nothing (respect), Raw Holistic Spa in Lakewood is the place to be. With expert massage therapists boasting 42 years of combined experience, holistic skincare treatments and an outdoor spa featuring a glass solarium with a retractable wall and ceiling, this place takes “treat yourself” to a whole new level.

Holistic Lakewood

If you’re not just after relaxation, but also relief from physical pain, stress and anxiety, Holistic Lakewood may be the solution. Their healing and bodywork services include Massage Therapy, Manual Lymphatic Drainage, Reflexology and even Essential Oil Therapy (because nothing says “I’ve been to a spa” like the lingering scent of eucalyptus).

Zen, Then Zoom

Now that you’ve reached enlightenment, you’re ready to take on the world (or at least Cleveland). Check out our Things To Do page for more inspiration.
