SLOMO at CHRISTCHURCH, dorset
Nestled between the Avon and Stour rivers, our pop up site at Elkins boatyard is a wonderful haven of tranquility surrounded by water and nature. Comprising of a woodfired Lithuanian sauna, an eye catching seven foot wide ice bath and two other cold plunges set into a wooden deck this is one stylish site. The idea behind the Slomo site in Christchurch is to move things on from a simple sauna on wheels and evolve into a Nordic spa idea where you can go on your own and meet like minded souls to hang out or come as a group or private party and enjoy the communal experience together. Add in comfy seating and sofas you may not want to leave!
HOW TO FIND US: ELKINS BOATYARD, CHRISTCHURCH, BH23 1BD

SLOMO 72 hour retreat
With carefully thought out programming to expand, deepen and nurture yourself with like minded people. From morning meditations to evening bonfires we will create an incredible journey together and you will go home feeling utterly restored.
From our studies, practice and research over the last two decades we know what a wonderful experience life is but also how stressful it can be. Modern science shows that it can take up to 72 hours for cortisol levels to return to normal after a period of stress or other factors that elevate cortisol and our aim is to get you back to the baseline over the 72 hours and have you leave as if you’ve just been unwrapped for the first time.
Upcoming Retreats:
24th September 2025
6th October 2025
