The Story of Norfolk’s First Outdoor Spa - Jörð
Through travel and the adventure of living in a remote wellness community, owner and operator Drew Ferris learned first-hand the true benefits of the Nordic Spa nature experience. Hot and cold rituals restore the body, calm the mind and foster stronger relationships.
The exploration began when Drew faced a series of life changing challenges, which set him on a path to discover a new way of personal wellness and connection.
Returning home and equipped with new knowledge, Drew was determined to help others in Norfolk County experience the benefits of the hot and cold therapies as well as the less talked about social benefits.
Tapping into his personal experience and passion, Drew has transformed this natural setting into what Jörð spa is today, Norfolk’s first outdoor spa. His commitment to providing a safe space for wellness activities where people can slow down to connect with one another, highlights Drew's unique and informed approach to community well-being for Norfolk residents and its visitors alike.
The name “Jörð” comes from The Earth Goddess of Nordic mythology. Like the earth itself, we believe Jörð promotes grounding and connection and we love how this flows into what we do. The high level of care and safe process we provide, is now changing Norfolk’s mythology too. When you leave here, you’ll be so refreshed you may feel like a god or goddess yourself.
There's no better place in Norfolk nature to slow down and connect than right here at Jörð.
