V-steam: honestly, it was a bit of a phase for me, but I did find that it released certain creative emotions, whether because of the symbolic nature of it or the treatment itself.īottom line: I cannot recommend this place enough! The only thing I would suggest is saving the chattiness and loud conversations for after your visit, as most people are there to unwind and have a bit of peace and quiet.The other week, I was just about at my wit’s end. The scrubs leave your skin baby smooth and supple. I prefer receiving massage bookended with good soaks to some of the other places where you don't really have the option to soak or even take a pause and drink some water. I've done the massages, scrubs, and V-steam treatments. Yes, you can sleep there too and there is nothing more refreshing than waking up after an afternoon or evening of soaking, steaming, and sweating and dipping into the fresh morning water (the tubs are emptied and cleaned every night). You'll have everything you need: bathing, food, entertainment (they have a small movie theater full of big plush reclining chairs).

The 24 hour admission sauna experience gives you a chance to experience that. There aren't a lot of spaces in the American lifestyle where people (especially certain people) can just relax, exist, and be human outside of their homes. Plenty of other reviews cover the nudity aspect, and what a visit to a Korean sauna entails, so I thought I'd offer some perspective as a long-time frequent visitor.

Ten years later, though prices have, expectedly, increased (tips were even once included with massage and other services, believe it or not), I can safely say that I've seen the same high level of service and sanitation standards from every employee at the place (with maybe one exception that I can think of) every single time that I've visited. First time was when I first moved to Chicago: that was way back in 2012.

I've been here more times than I can count.
