FAQ

It is a head/scalp treatment enhanced with intentional ASMR triggers. Core elements include:

• Scalp analysis and deep cleansing/exfoliation
• Slow, rhythmic massage with oils, serums, or warm water
• Gentle pouring techniques, such as a ring of water or waterfall rinse
• Soft sounds from water flow, finger tapping, brushing, or product application
• Extended neck, shoulder, and sometimes arm/hand massage
• Ambient visuals or lighting for extra sensory calm

The goal is both physical scalp health and powerful mental relaxation. Many guests describe it as tingle-inducing and deeply calming. Sessions typically last 60-90 minutes.

A regular head spa focuses on scalp health, circulation, and relaxation through massage and cleansing. ASMR Head Spa adds deliberate sensory layers: slower, more repetitive movements, emphasis on audible cues like water sounds, and rhythmic techniques designed to trigger ASMR tingles. It is often more immersive and video-like in real life, creating deeper relaxation for guests sensitive to sound and touch.

• Deep relaxation and stress relief
• ASMR tingles for many guests
• Scalp and hair health support
• Tension release for headaches, neck, and shoulders
• Better mood, clearer mind, and a lasting calm feeling

Immediate effects are strong relaxation; longer-term scalp and hair improvements appear with consistency.

You will recline in a comfortable chair or bed in a dimly lit, quiet room. The therapist begins with a consultation or scalp check, then moves through slow dry massage, cleansing with rhythmic lathering, exfoliation, oil application, steaming or warm towels, and a signature water-pouring rinse. Expect gentle tapping, brushing, and pressure-point work on the scalp, neck, and shoulders. Many guests enter a trance-like state or fall asleep.

No. Arrive with unwashed or 1-2 day old hair. Natural oils and buildup allow better assessment and let the deep cleanse work more effectively. The treatment will thoroughly clean your hair and scalp.

• For relaxation and ASMR benefits: every 4-6 weeks
• For scalp concerns like dryness, oiliness, buildup, or tension: every 2-4 weeks initially
• For self-care maintenance: many guests book monthly

Not everyone experiences classic ASMR tingles, but most guests still find it extremely relaxing because of the slow touch, warm sensations, and soothing sounds. If you already enjoy ASMR videos with tapping, scratching, water sounds, or personal attention, you are likely to enjoy the live version.

Yes. Therapists customize pressure, products, and techniques for fine, thick, curly, straight, color-treated, or textured hair. Please disclose allergies, recent chemical treatments, scalp conditions, or sensitivities. Pregnant guests or anyone with medical concerns should check with a doctor first.

• Common: deep relaxation, sleepiness afterward, mild scalp tenderness, or temporary oiliness as the scalp rebalances
• Rare: allergic reaction to products
• Avoid if you have open scalp wounds, active infections, or very recent heavy chemical services
• The treatment has no downtime

Prices vary by location, session length, and add-ons. A 60-minute session is often $100-$250, while a 90-minute deluxe session with extra massage or enhancements can be $150-$350+. Add-ons like extended ASMR elements, specific oils, or blow-dry may cost extra.

You can recreate elements at home with scalp massagers, soft brushes, oil, and a gentle shower rinse while focusing on slow movements and sounds. The full professional experience is more effective because of skilled techniques, professional products, and an immersive setup.

Most sessions include washing and conditioning. Many spas finish with a rough dry or optional professional blow-dry/style so you can leave looking polished.

It improves circulation and reduces tension, which can indirectly support healthier hair follicles and ease tension headaches. Many guests report better sleep the night of the treatment due to nervous system reset. It is not a medical cure, so persistent hair loss should be discussed with a dermatologist.

Deep tissue massage is a therapeutic massage technique that targets deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue using slow, firm pressure to release chronic tension, knots, and adhesions.

It can feel intense or like it hurts good, but it should never be unbearable. Pain level depends on muscle tightness, pressure tolerance, and therapist technique. Always communicate during the session. More pain does not mean better results.

• Chronic muscle pain
• Neck and shoulder tension
• Lower back pain
• Sports injuries
• Muscle knots and trigger points
• Limited mobility

Yes. Mild soreness is normal for 24-48 hours, similar to a workout. To reduce soreness, drink water, stretch lightly, and use heat or take a warm shower.

• Pain or injury: weekly or biweekly
• Maintenance: 1-2 times per month
• Athletes: weekly or around training cycles

Avoid deep tissue massage or consult a doctor first if you have a blood clotting disorder, recent surgery or injury, severe osteoporosis, or pregnancy unless the therapist is prenatal-certified.

Yes, but not always in one session. It helps break down adhesions, improve blood flow, and restore muscle function. Chronic knots often need multiple sessions plus stretching.

Hydrate, avoid heavy meals, and communicate your problem areas clearly before the service begins.

Drink water, avoid intense workouts the same day, and stretch or do light movement.

• 60 minutes: focused work
• 90 minutes: full body plus problem areas
• 120 minutes: deep corrective therapy

Yes, but it is not primarily for relaxation. It reduces stress by releasing physical tension, lowering cortisol, and improving circulation.

Absolutely. Good therapists adjust in real time. You can request light, medium, firm, or very deep pressure.

Yes, especially if you have chronic muscle tension, pain, limited mobility, or recurring knots. It is most effective when paired with clear communication, hydration, stretching, and consistent care.

A Korean facial is a multi-step, hydration-focused facial based on Korean skincare philosophy and designed to achieve glass skin: clear, smooth, deeply hydrated, glowing skin. Typical steps include double cleanse, exfoliation, extraction if needed, ampoule or serum infusion, mask therapy, facial massage, and lymphatic drainage.

• Dry or dehydrated skin
• Dullness and uneven tone
• Acne and inflammation
• Fine lines and early aging
• Hyperpigmentation
• Sensitive skin

Yes. Immediate effects often include a visible glow, plumper skin, and smoother texture. Best results come with consistent treatments and home care.

Yes, especially Korean-style acne facials that focus on gentle extraction, anti-inflammatory ingredients, and barrier repair. They are usually less aggressive than many Western acne treatments, which can mean less irritation.

No. It is typically very relaxing. The only slightly uncomfortable part may be extractions, if included.

• Maintenance: once a month
• Acne or pigmentation: every 2-3 weeks
• Pre-event glow: 3-5 days before the event

Glass skin is a Korean beauty standard meaning smooth texture, even tone, deep hydration, and a reflective glow. It is not oily; it is hydrated and balanced.

Yes, indirectly. Hydration can reduce the look of fine lines, massage improves circulation, and active ingredients can support collagen. It is not a replacement for injectables, but it is excellent maintenance.

There is zero downtime. Slight redness is possible after extraction, but you can usually go out immediately after.

Avoid heavy makeup for 24 hours if possible, avoid harsh actives like retinol and acids, and use SPF.

Yes. Korean facials are great for razor irritation, oily skin, and stress relief.

• 60 minutes: express glow
• 75-90 minutes: full Korean facial

• If you want glow + hydration + relaxation → 100% yes
• If you want aggressive correction (deep acne scars, wrinkles) → combine with advanced treatments
