Sooryeon | Women-only Private Bath & Body Scrub

Seshin (세신) is a uniquely Korean bathhouse tradition that has become an essential part of the country’s wellness culture. Performed by a skilled professional known as a seshin-sa (scrub master), this intense full-body exfoliation removes dead skin cells and leaves your skin remarkably soft and clean. Seshin is much more than a simple scrub—it’s a rejuvenating ritual that locals believe helps improve blood circulation, boost skin health, and relieve stress.

Traditionally, Seshin is enjoyed in public bathhouses (jjimjilbangs), where clients lie on a table while the seshin-sa uses a special textured cloth and rhythmic movements to scrub away built-up impurities. It is often seen as a rite of passage or a shared family activity, and many Koreans view it as both a cleansing practice and a social experience.

Modern Trend: Private Seshin

In recent years, private and premium Seshin services have become increasingly popular, especially among women and travelers seeking greater comfort and privacy. Unlike communal bathhouses, these services are offered in private rooms or luxury spas, often with personalized care, aromatherapy, and additional treatments. This new approach allows guests to experience the full benefits of Korean body scrubbing in a relaxed, discreet, and hygienic environment.
