ABOUT

Spa x Home started out as a quarantine birthday party...

In June 2020, all I wanted for my birthday was to be able to have something on the calendar to look forward to. So I came up with this idea of hosting a spa that my friends and family across 5 time zones could all do together.

As an experience designer focused on aligning technology with health-centered design values, I combined digital tools with ancient practices — from natural essentials that have been used for thousands of years to nourish skin, to self massage, to breathing and meditation techniques. The result became a shared ritual for relaxation, refreshment, and embodiment.

After my birthday spa, people asked me to keep doing more, and it has since grown into a collective self care ritual connecting people all over the world.

Spa x Home is a digitally guided, real-world, restorative spa experience to nurture the longest relationship you will have in your life: the one with your body and mind. It is an invitation to give yourself and those you care about the gift of feeling good.

Spa x Home is created by Jenka Gurfinkel.
