We are in Bahçeşehir 2. Kısım, at the same address as IFA 7/24 Fitness & Spa Club Bahçeşehir. So members who want to go straight to the spa after training don't need to go anywhere else. In this post we have put together a post-workout spa routine for people who train in Bahçeşehir 1. Kısım, Bahçeşehir 2. Kısım and Başakşehir.

Which massage after training?

  • Sports massage: focuses on the muscle groups that worked hardest and finishes with stretches. The most popular choice for recovery.
  • Deep tissue massage: works into the deeper muscle layers with slow, firm pressure. You can adjust the pressure with your therapist throughout.
  • Classic massage: to relax the whole body after a lighter training day.

Sports massage can be booked as preparation before training as well as after it. We explain when and how often in our sports massage post.

Sauna and rest

Sauna is included free in some of our packages; look for "free sauna" on the package cards. Keep sauna sessions short, rest in between and drink water. For more, see why rest after the sauna and steam room.

How is the member price applied?

If you are an IFC fitness member, just enter the phone number on your membership when you book online and the member price is applied automatically. You can see member and guest prices side by side for every treatment on the massages and packages pages.

A simple routine

  1. Finish your workout, cool down for a few minutes and drink water.
  2. Shower and head to the spa.
  3. Relax your muscles with a sports or deep tissue massage.
  4. If your package includes sauna, finish with a short session.

If you have an injury, pain or a health condition, ask your doctor before a massage and mention it in your booking note. Massage is not a substitute for medical treatment.
