Origins
Where resilience became
a practice.
SISU Spa was born from lived experience — a belief that even in uncertainty, the body and mind can find strength through intentional care.
Foundation
Our
Story
The idea for SISU Spa was born from a deeply personal journey of resilience and renewal.
For SISU owners Jamie and Denise, wellness became more than a concept — it became a way of adapting to life’s challenges with intention, courage, and care.
Following Denise’s diagnosis with young-onset Parkinson’s disease, practices such as contrast therapy, mindful movement, and intentional rest became tools for daily strength and steadiness.
Jamie’s own journey alongside her helped shape SISU into a space where wellness is practiced, not prescribed.
Philosophy
Why
SISU
Inspired by the Finnish concept of sisu — an inner strength that meets adversity with calm determination — SISU Spa was created as a place to reconnect with resilience.
Sisu is not about pushing harder. It is about continuing forward with clarity and presence.
