So kick back and relax and continue reading for more on spas in Korea—hotel spas, resort spas, day spas, and medical spas. You're sure to find the perfect type of spa for you!
Medical Spa
Medical spas include a variety of spa treatments but usually examine your physical conditions a little more indepth, combing spa treatment with a doctor's diagnosis and possibly a prescription. The number of medical spa facilities in Korea are increasing, offering dermatology, plastic surgery, and Oriental medicine. Treatments are designed to bring your body in balance through a healthy diet, exercise, and natural remedies, which help fight obesity, stress, and the signs of aging.
