Gangnam Spa

About

A jjimjilbang on Highway 6 in west Houston, billed as the first US spa with wood-fired Bul-Ga-Ma kilns. The co-ed jjimjil floor runs themed heat rooms in uniform, with separate clothing-optional bathing halls. Body scrubs, sleeping lounges and a Korean food court make it an all-day format: 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 like massage or a scrub, so a session can sit inside a wider visit.
• Restaurant on site, so 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.
• Women-only sauna: the venue has a women's side or room, or runs set women-only sessions.
• Mixed sauna: men and women share the room, in every session or on set days.
• Nude sauna: some or all sessions are taken without swimwear.
