Beyond Relaxation: Discovering Access Bars Sessions at the Wellness Post

If your mind could use a reset as much as your muscles, Access Bars sessions at Camping Bakkum’s Wellness Post offer a calm, head-clearing complement to classic massage. Tucked beside the on‑site laundrette, the massage salon—run by Saskia van Poppel, owner of Zitfit—adds an extra layer of ease to your beach-and-dune holiday. In this guide, you’ll learn what Access Bars is, how it differs from other treatments on the massage menu, what to expect during a session, and the simplest way to book during your stay.

What is an Access Bars session?

Access Bars is a fully clothed, hands‑on head treatment carried out while you lie comfortably on a massage table. During the session, a practitioner gently touches 37 points on the head with their hands. Many guests describe feeling more spacious and mentally refreshed afterwards—“as if things have been cleared out.” An Access Bars session at the Wellness Post is offered by appointment and is €50,- per hour, including a drink after the treatment.
