Where it all began
Rooted in nature and guided by innovation, Anada has evolved into a leading provider of education and professional training in thermal therapies, empowering Sauna, Spa and Wellbeing professionals around the world to deliver deeply restorative experiences.
Inspired by the rhythms of the natural world, our training programs focus on the powerful connection between heat, water, herbal traditions, and human wellbeing. We teach practitioners how to harness these elements to create impactful, sensory-rich experiences grounded in both ancient wisdom and modern science.
Our courses explore how thermal environments, like saunas, steam rooms, and contrast therapies can be elevated with intentional rituals, nature-based elements, and precise technique. Through this work, we’re helping to shape the future of spa and wellness, one trained professional at a time.
Whether it’s simulating the tranquility of forests, the cleansing energy of rivers, or the harmony of open meadows, Anada’s approach to education is highly professional, immersive, and always connected to the healing power of nature.
Meet the Founder
-“Anada means ‘spirit’, and to me, it represents a deep, enduring connection to the healing power of nature and the art of true wellbeing. What began as a personal passion for genuine wellness and exceptional spa experiences has evolved into something even more meaningful: a platform for education, empowerment, and professional growth.
With years of global experience in spa and wellness, as the UK lead for Aufguss and director of the British Sauna Society, I envisioned a way to blend the therapeutic principles of nature, the science of thermal therapy, and the magic of ritual into a holistic learning experience. Anada is now dedicated to training the next generation of Wellness professionals, helping them harness the power of heat, water, herbs, and sensory design to deliver world-class experiences and rituals
Through immersive courses and hands-on training, Anada invites professionals to embark on a journey that not only transforms their skills, but also revitalises the spirit – just as this journey has done for me.”
Deborah Carr, founder of Anada.
Committed to making Wellbeing matter
-Our pledge for 2025 is to support charities, organizations, and foundations dedicated to improving the mental and physical health of communities through the therapeutic benefits of sauna and thermal therapies. By educating and encouraging people to incorporate sauna rituals into their wellness routines, we aim to help individuals reconnect with their health, reduce stress, and enhance overall wellbeing.
We believe that spending time in heat, whether through saunas, steam rooms, or thermal treatments, can provide transformative benefits for the body and mind. As part of our commitment, we continue to advocate for the powerful impact these practices have on improving both mental clarity and physical vitality.
