Island Spa & Sauna
Hey Guys! A few weeks ago I was invited to visit Island Spa and Sauna located in Edison NJ. The Island Spa and Sauna is a Korean Spa that specializes in revitalizing your mind, body and soul.
Included with your admission price you can use their multiple saunas - each having a special focus, meditation spaces and treatment rooms. They even offer various different treatment options at an additional cost.
I opted to do a Korean Body Scrub which left my skin feeling extremely smooth!
So what can you expect during your visit to Island Spa & Sauna:
Upon arrival and check in you are given a bracelet which will track all the expenses you incur at the spa, then you are led into your corresponding lockers. Before heading inside you are required to check in your shoes inside the lockers located in the main area.
There are two separate sections - one for men the other for women. Once inside the locker you can change into the spa outfits that you were given at check in.
I had a Korean scrub scheduled so after changing and settling in I had to shower before soaking in one of the hot tubs. Please note that you must be fully nude in this area - if you are not comfortable being nude you can opt to book a private scrub session.
If you don't want to book a separate service take full advantage of their saunas, here is a list of the rooms they offer:
-
Treasure Island uses semi-precious stones and crystals for great healing and calming powers. It’s also the hottest room….I was happy that I lasted a full 5 minutes in here!
-
Charcoal Island stimulates sweat glands to release built-up toxins, increase blood circulation, and strengthen the body’s resistance to disease.
-
Salt Island uses pure Himalayan salt will strengthen your cardiovascular system and increase blood circulation, flush out impurities, and release dead skin cells.
-
Forest Island is a dry wood sauna that is perfect for soothing and invigorating the mind and spirit that also provides many benefits to your physical health.
-
Clay Island uses Korean baked clay which is a natural mud that assists in the heavy metal detoxification process to eliminate the body of impurities and waste.
-
Ice Island helps bring the core body temperature down, closes pores, and tightens the skin. By finishing with this ice sauna, blood circulation will improve and overall well-being will be restored. This one was my favorite room by far!
We went on a Sunday and were able to do a free yoga class! This was an added bonus for us.
And if all the saunas & spa treatments were not enough they have multiple areas where you can just lounge, read a book, meditate or even sleep. One thing I loved is that you can pay an extra fee to stay overnight. (this is only available on select days so make sure to check their website for more info)
After a full day of pure bliss we grabbed some juices from the Juice Bar then headed over to grab some food at Cafe Island. They have a great menu selection; you can’t go wrong with anything here! They even have a selection of board games available for use.
