| Chillout Zone for urbanites
The winter in Berlin is cold, tough and
long. The distance to the Caribbean is 10 hours by flight. The search
for a well-climatised place within close proximity prompted the founders
to create the Olivin Wellness Lounge.
Bordering on the Prenzlauer Berg/ Mitte districts, this
former Berlin factory was synthesized into a posh lounge and Finnish
sauna for winter-stressed townpeople and Berlin visitors.
Whats the meaning of 'Olivin'
'Olivin,' originating from its Latin roots
'oliva', gained great popularity dating back to ancient Romans, Egyptians,
and the people of the Baroque era. This stone earns its name from the
shining green olive and pistachio colouration and from the gem itself.
In gemtherapy it is used for the strenghtening of the
heart chakra. It supports independence, relieves anger and feelings
of guilt. It helps one recognize mistakes, strengthens confidence, and
brings calmness.
The Olivin is said to help fight ones own nervousness and can even bring
peace to the angriest antagonist as to strengthen vision.
It is said to have the characteristic of the 'birefringence of light.'
...Besides it looks good!
The Olivin is the stone used on our sauna oven.
What means ’AufguSS’?
When pouring water mixed with essential oils on
the hot stones of the sauna oven it is called 'Aufguss'. This process
increases humidity and the precipitation of heat, thus setting free
the healthy ingredients of the oils.
