[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Spa World is fantastic - I’m out of the DC area now and still make a point to visit when I’m in town (parents are still there).  Budget at least four hours!  There’s a place to get lunch too.  [/quote]

Honest question - what do you do for 4 hours?[/quote]

I rotate between the pools, steam room, and sauna.  Maybe spend an hour there.  Get a treatment: body scrub or massage.  In the shared (both gender) space there are many rooms with different elements: an amethyst room,  a clay room etc.  Spend 10-20 minutes in each and then rest on a mat between each for 5-10 minutes.  Eat or have a smoothie.

The time goes quickly at that place!

Alas I live in an area with no Korean spa to be found.  If I had my druthers I’d find someone to partner with and open one, but not sure there’s enough demand here.  I would be a regular customer at least![/quote]

Can you explain what you do in a clay or amethyst room? I’ve never heard of a Korean Spa. Are people just waiting to treat you in each room and if so what is the treatment?  Break it down for me please. [/quote]
It's a hot chamber done up with the titular mineral. People lie down on mats on the floor, relax and "breathe" the emanations that purport to be variously good for you. The benefits are lsited on a card at the entrance to the room. I personally think this is bunk, but really enjoy making a tour of these mineral rooms.
My favorite in the early days of Spa World was the room with little clay balls, but it seems that they never washed them and now they stink of the sweat of decades. Still very popular though.[/quote]
