INTRODUCTION

Energia Talu (Energy Farm) is located in the southern part of Estonia and is a medicinal plant centre with its own tea house. All herbs on the farm are grown organically.

The ecological cultivation and conscious use of medicinal plants at Energia Talu started in 1991. The knowledge and skills to start came from the host’s grandfather, who knew medicinal plants and they were part of his lifestyle.

The Energy Eco-Spa with sauna is available at the farm, situated on the shore of the Navesti River and has been offering sauna services since 2010. This is the perfect place for people who want to enjoy a natural lifestyle that draws on the traditional wisdom of past generations.

The host Aivar Siim is a trained and experienced sauna master, who has studied in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Russia. In 2020, in Moscow, Aivar graduated from Ivan Ivankin (Иван Иванкин), a renowned sauna master in Russia, class.

Today Aivar prepares a ritual with aromatherapy and a special practical sauna program, according to a person’s mental and physical condition. He checks the person’s condition before the sauna and selects the procedures individually on the basis of VedaPulse diagnostics. He guides and balances the movement of energies and recommends a personal Ayurvedic diet and lifestyle, according to the type of personal body.
