Gwyneth Paltrow reveals unusual spa treatment on website

The actress uses a combination of infrared and mugwort steam cleanses the uterus
Mumbai: Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow recently revealed on her lifestyle website ‘Goop’ that she uses a special cleansing treatment that involves steaming her genitals.
In a post on her website she wrote, “Tikkun is the next level when it comes to Korean spas, combining high-tech far infrared heat with traditional Korean sauna therapies. So, if you want to lay down in a Himalayan salt brick tiled sauna, or sit in a Hwangto clay room, you get the added benefit of far infrared heat. And, in addition to the sauna rooms, there’s a long menu of massages and kick-ass body scrubs to complement the sauna time.”
“We’re burying the lede though, because the real golden ticket here is the Mugworth V-Steam: You sit on what is essentially a mini-throne, and a combination of infrared and mugwort steam cleanses your uterus, et al. It is an energetic release—not just a steam douche—that balances female hormone levels. If you’re in LA, you have to do it.”
According to the spa’s website, this treatment has been used in Korea for centuries and ‘helps maintain internal health as well as keeps your skin looking young and healthy.’
A 30-minute session costs $50 and a series of five treatments is available for $200.
