What To Expect When Checking Into A Korean Day Spa In Sunnyvale CA

By Jennifer Q. Elizondo


After a long week of work or dealing with your kids, you might be feeling tired and worn out. Sometimes, a hot shower and a long nap may fix this, but in other cases it might not. One way to get rid of that bone deep exhaustion, is to book sessions at a Korean day spa in Sunnyvale CA. After some hours of massages, detox, and relaxing, you will go back home ready to face the new week.

Most major cities have at least one of these spas, tucked away somewhere. You can visit them to get a massage, get a full body scrub, or to spend time in their hot rooms. Originally, these places were owned by people of oriental descent. Currently, you might even find one owned by an American but with Korean employees.

One thing these places are known for is nudity. You can first inquire from the management, but in most cases, you will find that you need to be naked in order to get the services. This will mean taking a deep breath, and stripping of all your clothes. They will provide you with towel, but it will be the size of a hand towel, and therefore, cannot be used to cover up.

Before you leave the house, you should know that there will be no need to put on any make up, or to spray your hair. The moment you check in, you are required to first shower and then tie your hair and cover it. Most of the locker rooms will be equipped with blow dryers and tongs, in case you need to fix your appearance before you leave.

While you are moving from one session to another, you might walk into the sauna and find people resting peacefully. This is the same thing you should be doing. After booking yourself into this place, figure out how to relax, in order to get the most from the place. You will also need to know your limits. You might find that staying too long in the sauna, makes you feel lightheaded.

Sometimes, when you are going for a spa day you are advised not to eat anything heavy, before and after the process. At a Korean spa, this might be difficult especially, if there is a food court on the premises. As long as you are not going in for a massage or anything that requires you to lie down, you can eat some of the tasty foods that they will be serving.

Some of the spas only operate during the day, but you might find others which run twenty four seven. In order to make sure you get value for your money, as about the criteria they use to charge. This will either be per hour, or even per session. Going as a large group, will allow you to ask for discounts. You should have the cash or credit card on hand, to pay before you start.

In case you want to try out one of these spas, you can check online and get references to the best places in the area. You can also ask around and get recommendations from friends or family members, who have gone for sessions at these spas. Using referrals ensures you go to the right place, and prevents bad experiences.
