Korean Body Scrubs in NYC: Get the Bathhouse Experience

Spa Aura NYC is pleased to offer the Korean Body Scrub service. Korean body scrubs are a traditional way to exfoliate the skin on the body using a mitt towel after enjoying a steam in the sauna grottos. In Korea, individuals will go to the bath houses as often as weekly to steam, soak, sit in the saunas and scrub their bodies with the traditional mitt. During your service the therapist will scrub you using only warm water and the mitt as parts of dead skin will start to noticeably come off. The therapist will do this until no more skin comes off. The Koran name for this practice is“jjimjilbang” which is translated to “steam room”.

What to expect during your Korean Body Scrub in NYC

You will start off by soaking in a heated pool or steam room to encourage the opening of your pores. Next you will then rinse off before lying down on a bed that will probably be covered in plastic. As far as attire goes, you will be either naked or in underwear while the attendant vigorously scrubs you down with the mitt until all of the dead skin on your body is removed. The attendant will most likely be dressed in shorts and a bra of sorts. During and after the scrub, buckets of warm water will be continuously dumped on you to rinse away the dead skin cells. Following the Korean body scrub, you will then be soaped up again and rinsed once more. Then they will massage your body and face and wrap you with warm towels.

Afterwards you should feel incredibly clean and smooth; your skin will also look great, even giving off a “glowing” appearance. To keep up this feeling, try to get a Korean body scrub as often as you can.
