3. What facilities are available in the private wellness area at Herenhuis Izegem?

Herenhuis’s private wellness centre offers various ways to alternate between heat, water and tranquillity. You choose which facilities to use and how to structure your session.

The wellness centre features:

• Luxury Finnish sauna: for a traditional sauna experience with high temperatures and an ‘opgiet’ system.

• Infrared sauna: an alternative where your body is warmed by infrared radiation.

• Hammam or steam bath: for a relaxing experience with warm, humid air.

• Heated indoor swimming pool: for a peaceful swim or to cool down between heat sessions.

• Covered outdoor jacuzzi: with massage jets, on the terrace.

• Ice flake machine: to use ice flakes during your wellness session for a cooling experience.

• Power shower and rain shower with massage function: to rinse off and gradually cool your body down.

• Relaxation area: to rest comfortably in between sessions.

• Changing room: to get changed in peace.

• Wellness amenities: including bathrobes, bath towels, slippers and toiletries.

• Fruit-infused water, fruit, tea and coffee are also provided in the relaxation room in accordance with the package terms and conditions.

  The entire wellness area is private for your group. This means you can decide for yourselves whether you’d prefer to enjoy the jacuzzi, try out different types of sauna, or alternate at your leisure between heat, water and relaxation.

A standard wellness session usually lasts two hours. Depending on the package you choose and availability, you can book a longer session.

4. What is the correct way to use a hammam?

A hammam is a steam bath where you relax in a warm, humid environment. Unlike a traditional Finnish sauna, where the air is relatively dry, the hammam focuses on humid heat.

At Herenhuis Izegem, you can include the hammam in your private wellness session.

Enjoying a hammam, step by step

Step 1: Have a shower first.
Rinse your body before entering the hammam. This way, you’ll start your session feeling refreshed.

Step 2: Start gently.
Take a seat in the hammam and give your body time to get used to the warm, humid air. If you’re new to this, start with a short session of about 5 to 10 minutes.

Step 3: Breathe calmly and relax.
Try to keep your breathing steady and let your shoulders and muscles relax. There’s no need to push yourself: the aim is simply to enjoy yourself in comfort.

Step 4: Leave the hammam as soon as you feel any discomfort.
Do not stay any longer simply because you think a longer session is automatically better. Leave the room if you feel dizzy, nauseous, short of breath or have an unpleasant sensation of overheating.

Step 5: Cool down gradually.
Have a refreshing shower and then rest for a while in the relaxation area. Drink plenty of water.

Step 6: Only repeat if you feel well.
You can use the hammam again later if you wish. It is not necessary to have several long sessions in a row.

What are the benefits of a hammam? How does a hammam affect the body?

The warm, humid environment of a hammam can have various relaxing effects:

• Relaxation: the heat can help your body unwind.

• Muscle comfort: some people find that tense muscles feel more comfortable after a warm session.

• Skin care: the humid heat can make the skin feel temporarily softer.

• Well-being and tranquillity: a hammam can offer a pleasant moment to slow down and let go of stress.

• Experience of warmth: the combination of heat, silence and calm breathing can contribute to a feeling of relaxation.

A hammam is not a medical treatment and does not remove toxins from the body. The liver and kidneys perform those functions. Furthermore, there is insufficient evidence to suggest that a hammam cures infections or respiratory conditions.

When should you avoid using a hammam?

Postpone a hammam session or seek medical advice beforehand if you:

• have a fever or are acutely ill;

• have a contagious infection;

• have serious heart problems or poorly controlled blood pressure;

• faint easily or have difficulty regulating your body temperature;

• are pregnant and are unsure whether the heat is safe;

• have been drinking alcohol or are dehydrated.

Hot, humid air can put extra strain on the body if you have certain medical conditions or are taking certain medication. If in doubt, seek advice from your doctor. Leave the hammam immediately if you feel unwell.

5. What is the correct way to use a sauna?

The Finnish sauna is a traditional sauna in which your body is exposed to dry heat. At Herenhuis Izegem, you can enjoy a luxury Finnish sauna with an ‘opguss’ system.

How to use a Finnish sauna, step by step

Step 1: Have a shower beforehand.
Have a shower and dry yourself off before entering the sauna.

Step 2: Start with a short session.
For beginners, around 5 to 10 minutes is a sensible place to start. Depending on your experience and how you feel, a session may last a little longer. Never force yourself to stay in for a specific length of time.

Step 3: Sit or lie down comfortably.
Relax your muscles and breathe calmly. The aim is not to stay in the sauna for as long as possible, but to feel comfortable.

Step 4: Only use the water-pouring system as instructed.
Pouring water onto the stones increases the humidity and can make the heat feel more intense. Follow Herenhuis’s instructions and do not simply pour extra water onto the sauna stones.

Step 5: Cool down gently.
Leave the sauna and have a shower. Choose a way to cool down that suits your experience and health. A sudden cold shower or ice bath is not suitable for everyone.

Step 6: Rest and drink water.
Take plenty of time to recover. Drink water and check how you’re feeling before having another session, if you wish.

What are the benefits of a sauna? How does a sauna affect the body?

During a sauna session, your body temperature rises and your blood vessels dilate. Your heart rate may increase and you will start to sweat.

Possible effects include:

• Relaxation: heat can help you unwind.

• Temporary muscle relief: some people experience less stiffness or tension after applying heat.

• Increased blood flow to the skin: the heat causes the superficial blood vessels to dilate.

• A pleasant sensation after exercise: a sauna can form part of a relaxing recovery routine.

• Rest and sleep comfort: some people find that a relaxing evening routine helps them sleep better.

Research into regular sauna use shows links to certain health outcomes, but this does not prove that a sauna session prevents or cures illnesses. A sauna is no substitute for medical treatment or a healthy lifestyle.

Book your private wellness experience with an overnight stay here and enjoy a relaxing sauna session together.

When should you avoid using a sauna?

Avoid the sauna if you have a fever, an acute infection, are dehydrated, or are under the influence of alcohol or other substances that affect your reactions or blood pressure.

Seek advice from your doctor beforehand if you have serious cardiovascular conditions, uncontrolled high or low blood pressure, recurrent fainting spells, or conditions that affect your body’s ability to regulate temperature.

During pregnancy, it is also advisable to discuss with your doctor or midwife beforehand which forms of heat are safe.

Stop immediately if you experience dizziness, nausea, palpitations, a headache or shortness of breath. Sweating more or staying in the sauna for longer does not automatically provide any additional health benefits.

6. What are the benefits of an infrared session?

An infrared sauna differs from a traditional Finnish sauna in that it uses infrared radiation to heat the body. The ambient temperature is usually lower than in a traditional sauna, which means some people find this form of heat more pleasant.

At Herenhuis Izegem, you can alternate between the infrared sauna and other facilities during your private wellness session.

Potential benefits of infrared heat

• Relaxation: the heat can have a soothing effect.

• Muscle comfort: some people experience temporary relief from stiffness or tense muscles.

• A gentler sensation of heat: the lower air temperature may be pleasant for people who find a traditional sauna too intense.

• A peaceful wellness ritual: you can use the infrared session as part of some ‘me time’.

The scientific evidence for specific medical benefits of infrared saunas is still limited. An infrared session should not be regarded as a proven treatment for chronic pain, high blood pressure or other conditions.

The general precautions for saunas also apply to infrared heat. Start with a short session, drink plenty of water and stop if you feel unwell.

7. How can you make the most of a private wellness session?

A private wellness session is most enjoyable when you take plenty of time and consciously alternate between the various facilities.

At Herenhuis Izegem, for example, you could follow this sequence. Adjust the duration to suit your own experience, comfort level, and health.

An example of a relaxing wellness ritual

1. Arrival and a gentle start:
Take your time to get changed, explore the facilities, and listen to the instructions provided.

2. Begin with a warm shower:
This ensures you are clean and helps prepare your body for the heat.

3. Choose your first heat session:
Start, for instance, with a short infrared session or a brief stint in the sauna. If you have limited experience with saunas, opt for a gentle introduction.

4. Take a break in the hammam or enjoy the jacuzzi:
You don’t have to use every facility available. Choose what you find enjoyable, and keep your total exposure to heat in mind.

5. Cool down and rest:
Take a shower, drink some water, and spend some time relaxing in the designated relaxation area.

6. Enjoy the indoor pool:
If you’re feeling up to it, you can go for a leisurely swim or simply relax in the water. Avoid strenuous swimming if you feel dizzy or tired.

7. Finish with a moment of calm:
Take some extra time to unwind before getting dressed. If you have booked an overnight wellness stay, you can continue to enjoy a comfortable evening and a good night’s sleep afterward.

Our top tip:
Don’t feel the need to use every facility as often as possible. The best private wellness experience is one where you feel comfortable, stay well-hydrated, and make time to rest in between sessions.

Alcohol and intense heat do not mix well. It is better to opt for water or a non-alcoholic beverage during your wellness session.

8. Staying at B&B Herenhuis Izegem

One of the major highlights of Herenhuis is the combination of private wellness facilities with a comfortable overnight stay. You don’t need to drive home after your wellness session; instead, you can simply continue to enjoy the relaxation.

The B&B is housed in a characterful townhouse, blending an inviting interior with contemporary comforts.

Depending on the room type, the rooms are equipped with amenities such as a comfortable bed, a private bathroom, Wi-Fi, a television, air conditioning, heating, a minibar, and tea and coffee-making facilities.

For a wellness stay, you can choose from the available rooms and suites, depending on the number of guests and current availability.

What B&B rooms are available at Herenhuis?

• Room Gentleman
