Gangnam Spa

About

A 30,000+ sq ft jjimjilbang on Highway 6 in west Houston, billed as the first US Korean spa to use traditional wood-fired Bul-Ga-Ma kilns. Co-ed jjimjil floor with themed heat rooms (illite, salt, ice) and uniforms required, plus separate clothing-optional men's and women's bathing halls with hot/cold pools. Body scrubs, massages, sleeping lounges, and a Korean food court — full all-day spa format. Strict no-photos, 18+, grip socks only.

Good to know

• Cold plunge available on site — use it between rounds for the classic contrast cycle.
• Hot tub on site — adds a warm-water option between the sauna and the cold plunge for a longer cycle.
• Pool on site — works alongside the sauna for swim-and-sauna sessions or a longer cool-down between rounds.
• Pairs the sauna with spa services — massage, scrub, or other treatments — so a session can sit inside a wider visit.
• Restaurant on site — long sessions are the design; food is part of the visit rather than a stop on the way home.
• Wood-fired heat — softer, heavier löyly than electric, and the smell of the stove is part of the room.
