also - we did not choose to wear socks in the pool, we were required to ๐งฆ but in the end i found them charming
-
safiya is bathing with us once again
-
Youโre going to float away!
-
As someone from Bath, UK, this is like someone combined our Roman Baths with our modern spa ๐ every time I walk around the Roman Baths I wish you could actually get in. I need to go to this place I guess!
-
Your spa videos are my favorite! Your one spa video with the wine pool in Japan is my go to comfort video
-
It looks like a set from the 1st John Wick film.๐๐ป๐
-
Not Saf taking us around the world one bath at a time
-
Oooh ๐ฎ My high school Latin teacher would be impressed lol. I like the idea of a scented steam room, but peppermint would NOT be my choice ๐คฃ Iโm sure itโs really refreshing for some, but it sounds so overwhelming to me
-
My husband gave me this as a gift for my birthday and it was such an amazing self care day!!
-
I just went to a spa that has similar things, including a salt pool, and I literally floated for 1 & 1/2 - it's super zen once you get your mind relaxes
-
This reminds me of the spa I went to in Quebec! That super salty pool was my favorite. I think I ended up falling asleep for the duration I was floating ๐

Ancient Romans didn't use soap to bathe. They used salt to exfoliate, and oil to cleanse, and people quite literally carried their own oil kn1fe to scrape the oil off.
-
Salt is good for skin and for hydration. It keeps skin more moist after shower and great exfoliator since it purifies and cleans. It can also preserve ๐คฃ so mind not to keep you too salted or you become a pickle.

Rivers in Finland and hole in the ice experience in there. Some Finnish public swimming pools has those separate tiny cold bath pools if there is no possibility for hole in the ice. ๐ฅถ I once dipped in one thinking its for children since it was so tiny (was child back then) and the regret after ๐.

I love this place; itโs really worth it for a special treat
-
Rich people in Ancient Rome would sometimes lounge at bathhouses all day going in between the caldarium and frigidarium to get high. The shock of switching temperatures that fast is enough to make you trip
-
I would love to go there one day.
-
I'd like to invite you to a Korean style spa and public bath ๐ฅฐ Sending love from Daejeon โค
-
As someone with foot-phobia, I'd LOVE to go to this place ๐

Aaaahhhhhhh Safiya! I wonder if you went after I suggested this to you! I went in January!! It was amazing!
