When you need to RELAX...;)
"WAT PHO" HERBAL SAUNA <3
THIS IS A REALLY NICE PLACE TO VISIT...
*The sign to "Wat Pho" (templet där Saunan finns).
The Sauna has two rooms(male and female). And when you get
there you can rent a Sarong to use over your swimshorts/bikini
in the Sauna.. You also get a locker for your clothes & belongings.
*This is the "Sauna" building...
*Inside, but its dark when you sit there.
The combination of Thai herbs, such as lemongrass,
jasmine and turmeric, are said to be healthy for the
skin & to purge the body of toxins. The Sauna is hot
but the air is not so dry like in our Swedish Saunas.
More fresh and almost a menthol feeling..
I feel so refreshed everytime I leave this place..
Almost like new, and with skin soft like a baby! ;)
The experience is as much unlike any Western spa
experience that I wouldn’t know where to begin.
Its SO peaceful and quiet in the temple area..
You can really relax here!
If you have been partying too hard ;) or just feel
like doing something good for yourself and want to
try something new then you should visit this place.
(You can find this Saunas on many places in Thailand).
Herbal Sauna has many knowned health benefits such
as reducing high cholesterol levels to treating eczema.
*First you go inside and sit as long
as you feel like, then you go out &
pour cold water over yourself.. Sit
and relax, drink water/herbal tee..
Then you go inside again... They
also have herbal masks & lotions
if you want to try..
*Where the steam comes from..
*Dont forget you are in a sacred
place, show respect.
*There is a 50 baht nominal charge
and any donations will help the monks
keep the sauna operating for all to enjoy.
Quite good price!!, right!?
