The Huab Lodge & BushSPA thermal bath is perfectly integrated into its setting in the bush of the Huab private nature reserve to ensure nature-induced relaxation and wellbeing.
If you fancy cooling off there's a cool pool next to the hot one. The water is not chemically treated and the pools are emptied and scrubbed once a week. The water returns to the river bed to sink into the sands thus ensuring that our ecological principles are upheld.
You can enjoy a professional wellness treatment which, combined with nature's thermal water is very effective. Fresh fruit and vegetables and herbs from the kitchen garden as well as the excellent quality drinking water which comes from the depths of the nature reserve all combine to ensure your wellbeing.
You can also download our Therapy and Wellness Brochure in English or Deutsch.

 I am Johan, qualified massage therapist from South Africa. My passion for and my dedication to massage therapy originated in the East, where I studied the Eastern philosophy of massage therapies inter alia in Thailand and the Philippines.
Having the opportunity to spend considerable time with monks in Thailand has led me to incorporate focussed awareness into my massage therapies.
The treatments are holistic, intuitive and tailor-made to harmonise the body and to improve mental, physical and emotional well-being. Not all my treatments are included here, so if there is any type of treatment you particularly would like to have, please discuss this with me.
I would like to invite you on a journey of peace and tranquillity to relax and restore body, mind and soul, and experience the unique silent language and vocabulary of strokes and pressures at our Huab Sound of Silence sanctuary.
I look forward to your visit.
Johan Head and Face Massage The Face Massage - Our faces mirror joy and happiness but also stress and worry. The mimicry of our faces involves some 70 muscles that each show a reaction on our skin and hence create certain creases which deepen with time. Our skin is our largest organ.
Sunbathing, damaging UV rays, lack of sleep, stress, tension, excessive use of alcohol and cigarettes all negatively influence the condition of our skin, particularly on our faces. However, the skin reacts very positively to facial massages, to correct drinking and eating habits and to fresh air.  So, why not counter the signs of time with a wonderful rejuvenating facial massage? Blood circulation of the skin will be improved, the muscle structure relaxed and harmful waste products transported off by a manual lymph drainage.
Not enough with all that, your personal well-being is ensured, you can float on the unique Huab Sound of Silence and forget the banalities of everyday life.
This facial massage is particularly soothing for the irritated autonomous nervous system. Your face will glow from within!
Back, Neck and Shoulders MassageThe Back Massage concentrates on the problem areas of the shoulders and lumbar region. Different massage techniques are used to treat the muscles and joints of the back and shoulders.
Circulation is improved and waste products are transported off in the blood and lymph drainage systems.
Mobility of the joints and muscle function are increased. The back is the most important aspect of this massage and a good back massage is not only strengthening and relaxing for the back itself but the whole body benefits from the treatment.
Back problems are amongst the most frequent causes of failure to attend work these days. Psychological and mental problems can also become apparent as tension in the lumbar and shoulder/neck areas.
Let yourself be spoiled in the Huab Sound of Silence while making the most of this wonderful massage.
Foot ReflexologyFoot Reflexology - This popular treatment entails working on pressure points on certain areas of the feet or even of the hands to treat specific parts of the body. Variations of the acupressure treatment of the feet has been practiced by Asian and West Indian cultures for hundreds of years.
The Europeans of the Middle Ages as well as the ancient Egyptians also had foot massages which were used for healing. A reflex is how the body reacts to a stimulus. The therapy of reflexology utilizes the body's ability to show its reaction to stimulus as shown on the foot or hand.
All the organs, muscles, nervous system etc. are visible on the sole or palm and are treated with many different special massage techniques to stimulate and harmonize as required.
This encourages the body's own healing powers. And it does not tickle! Careful attention to the resulting reactions during the treatment creates awareness in your body and gives me important information for the continuation of the therapy.
