Wild Spa Wowo announces its exciting 3-day Aufguss Master Basic Course for wellness professionals this October, led by the spas founder and designer Katie Bracher.

Bracher has an expertise in Sauna traditions and design, and is a qualified Sauna Master, and thus is at the forefront of the spa’s movement to bring the sauna and spa experience back to nature and away from clinical spa settings. As a result, she is excited to be leading the 3-day Aufguss Master Basic Course.

Aufguss is a wellness experience that is held in a sauna and led by an Aufgussmeister, a Sauna Master, who pours essential-oil-infused water onto the sauna’s hot stones and use rhythmical towel movements to circulate the fragrant air. Some are accompanied by music whilst others let the sounds of towel-waving dominate the experience. No two Aufguss are exactly alike. 

After the 3-day course, attendees will be capable of leading an Aufguss sauna session on their own and will be presented with a Certificate. 

Katie Bracher explains why spas need to consider embracing Aufguss sessions in their saunas: "People are looking for authentic experiences that are surprising and fun. That is exactly what you get from an Aufguss session led by a competent Sauna Master. People tend to come back for more once they have experienced it and repeat customers is what every spa wants."

She adds: "Going back to the roots of sauna traditions, and even better, having people experience these in a more authentic setting - like an outdoor sauna - is one of the main emerging trends in the sauna and spa industry in the UK at the moment."
