In Celebration to Nature's Medicine
This work is not rooted in any belief system, religion, or spiritual framework. It is for anyone who feels the pull of nature and finds themselves exhausted by a world that asks us to live against our own rhythm, the relentless pace of screens, schedules, and structures that were never built around what we actually are.
What I found, again and again, was that my most honest medicine was in nature.
For a long time I tried to fit myself into the world as it is shaped, and it was slowly crushing something in me. What brought me back was not a teacher or a revelation. It was simpler: gathering plants with my own hands, water, fire, earth and air, prayers sung in my mother's tongue, the quiet knowing that has always lived in the body.
The name Latvian Witch is not a claim to mysticism or dark practice. It is an acknowledgement to every woman who has ever been called dangerous simply because she knew how to tend the land, work with plants, and care for her community. Women who had a deep, personal relationship with the divine not through obedience to someone else's interpretation, but through the soil under their feet and the people they loved.
I grew up in the Latvian countryside carrying this inheritance. This is my gift and my medicine, and I share it with anyone who feels called back to something real.

What people carry home
I came here with no expectations and received something I never anticipated. Afterward I feel so much lighter, both physically and mentally. I feel calm. This was exactly what I needed right now. From the bottom of my heart, my deepest gratitude for this magical evening. Thank you for doing this.
A huge thank you! This was a WOW experience, incredibly powerful, both energetically and physically. Purification, the release of blockages, the clearing of energy channels. I feel like I've been reset to a blank page and at the same time lifted higher, opened wider, and smiling with my whole being.
Beautiful, magical, free! Thank you for this meeting, not only with you, but with myself. Moving through life, through the sauna, is a true blessing. Thank you for the safe space, the smiles, and the conversations. You are one of our earth's most precious gifts, someone who, together with others, builds something truly meaningful.
I am so grateful for your generosity, your authenticity, your openness. It is such a gift to be truly present, here and now, and that is exactly what you gave me. To stop. To be with myself. To look at my own soul. Beauty lives in clarity. I want to hold on to so much of this feeling. ALL IS LOVE.
Everything begins and everything ends with remembering. Everything that was, everything that is, all of it made of love, faith, and unity. You who are ancient, you who are new. You who are here and also far away.
Dear, Divine, thank you for remembering. In feeling, in a glance, in a touch, in a sound. For the sense of unity. For feeling rooted. In your deep, infinite eyes, eternity.
Meeting Agate could fill an entire fairy tale. From the very first moment it was clear that something special would emerge. Her lightness and magic gently carried me into the depths of the sauna world. I don't even like saunas. And I'm quite cautious with unfamiliar feelings. But Agate masterfully unlocked my inner "control freak." To meet the light you must first pass through the darkness. And miraculously it's not as terrifying as it might seem, because in Agate's presence everything unknown and scary transforms into clarity. I'm now ready to open up even more.
This was a deeply intense and equally necessary experience, liberating and guiding, bringing you closer to yourself and your own potential. Agate was just as much a part of this process as I was. Without her, it would not have been nearly as effective. If you feel like you need to move forward but don't know where, this process will absolutely help lead you to your own path. Don't be afraid to challenge yourself.
Nothing happens by accident. In my experience, when certain changes arrive in life, people appear out of nowhere who help you keep the right focus. This is one of those stories. It turned out far, far better than expected. After this experience, my whole understanding of what a sauna is completely changed. What I used to call a sauna before was definitely not this. It's something more, try it, words aren't enough.
Today I feel such harmony within myself, and I know that all of this was meant to happen. My soul has received love and nature's healing. It's no coincidence that sauna masters make incredible therapists, because in the sauna our souls meet, and conversations heal in a different way. All day I keep hearing the words: "Why does your ego need them to change?" and it has been a guiding thought for my own growth.
Today was something magical. It was my first sauna experience and I felt like I had been in another world the entire time. I cannot stop expressing my gratitude for your strength, your energy, and the magic you guided me through.
I had been longing for a real Latvian sauna with all the rituals and incantations, honey massage, salt massage, and everything else. It was fantastic. I enjoyed it and enjoyed it and enjoyed it. You delivered exactly what I saw in your ad, walking through the forest reciting ancient words. You delivered that and so much more.

I am Agate, a Latvian Pirtniece, herbalist and bodyworker based in Valencia, Spain. I grew up in the Latvian countryside in a family where working with plants, fire and nature was simply part of life. The name Latvian Witch is not about witchcraft. It is an acknowledgement to all the women across history who were called dangerous simply because they knew how to tend the land and care for their communities. I share what I grew up with: Pirts ritual, plant medicine, bodywork and gatherings rooted in the four elements.
Latvian Pirts is an ancient folk healing practice using fire, heat, steam, healing plants, sacred songs and cold water. It is not simply a sauna. It is a guided experience that has been used for centuries to cleanse the body, quiet the mind and support the whole person. The Pirtniece, the woman who tends the fire, prepares the plants and holds the space, works with each person individually. Every session is different.
Latvian Pirts ritual (in Latvia and London), the Amber Massage (somatic bodywork with Baltic amber, for women, in Valencia), Voice and Breathwork sessions (in person in Valencia and online), community gatherings and Pirts workshops in London and Valencia, and a Pirts Practitioner Training coming soon. You can find full details for each on the services pages.
I am based in Valencia, Spain, where I hold bodywork and breathwork sessions at Saged Club. Pirts ritual takes place in Latvia at a private Pirts in Ropaži, and in London through group events at Banya No.1 in Hoxton, where I work around once a month. Breathwork sessions are also available online. I am working towards building a dedicated Pirts space in the Spanish countryside.
No. This work is not rooted in any belief system, religion or spiritual framework. It comes from Baltic folk practice, which is grounded in a simple relationship with the natural world: fire, water, earth and air. You do not need to hold any particular belief to receive it. It is open to everyone.
Anyone who feels the pull of nature and wants to slow down. People carrying stress, emotional heaviness or physical tension. People at a turning point or moving through a difficult period. People curious about plant medicine, heat therapy or folk healing traditions. You do not need experience with any of this. You only need to be willing to show up and be present. The Amber Massage is offered to women only. Everything else is open to all.
Use the contact page, or reach out directly on Instagram or WhatsApp. All sessions begin with a short conversation before anything is confirmed. There is no wrong way to start.
Yes. Voice and Breathwork sessions are available online for 50 EUR. You will need a quiet room where you can be alone and undisturbed, a comfortable place to lie down, a blanket, an eye cover if you have one, and headphones. Everything else follows the same structure as in person.
Reach out and we can talk. What matters to me is that this work is accessible, and I am always open to a conversation about pricing.
