Time to Melt the Fatigue of Daily Life, the Story of Gangbuk Swedish

The northern part of Seoul, Gangbuk, is a place that combines a long history with modern life. Alleyways, old houses, and newly built high-rise buildings, cafes, and massage parlors below the foot of Bukhansan Mountain. Although it may seem like an ordinary neighborhood on the surface, this place also has a space that gives tired modern people a breath. They are Swedish massage parlors.

When the word "swedish" first appeared, it felt somewhat unfamiliar. This massage, which was popular first in Gangnam, is a Western-style oil therapy, which takes a completely different approach from conventional acupressure or tie massage. Rather than pressing hard or causing pain, it is characterized by relaxing muscles with a soft and constant rhythm and calming the mind. Warm oil glides on the skin, and when the hand of an experienced therapist passes throughout the body, it feels as if the tightly blocked hide is opening little by little.

In Gangbuk, various Swedish shops are now opening. It has established itself in various forms, from one-person shops to high-end spa styles, centering on major living areas such as Suyu, Mia, Sungshin Women's University, Jeongneung, and Nowon. Among them, private shops located in quiet residential areas are particularly popular. A massage in a space with quiet music and subtle scents, free from the noise of the downtown area, is healing in itself.

Swedish in Gangbuk is not just a trend. For people living here, it has become a way of regular self-care and a small routine to comfort themselves. It is a short time to enjoy a complete "rest" in the daily life of work, study, and parenting. In particular, communicating 1:1 with the therapist and accurately grasping and managing my body condition increases customer satisfaction.

The price range is also reasonable. In the Gangnam area, the average hourly rate is 12.15 million won, whereas in Gangbuk, the same quality of service is often available for 7.1 million won. In particular, it is not burdensome for those who want to receive constant management, so it is suitable for long-term self-management. More and more places are operating regular or membership, enabling more planned health management.

Swedish massage goes beyond just relaxing muscles. It is a therapy that can enjoy various health benefits at the same time, such as relieving stress, improving insomnia, increasing immunity, and activating lymph circulation. Furthermore, it is evaluated as one of the essential ways to rest in an era where anxiety and overwork have become commonplace these days in that you can feel psychological stability.

Someone says, "What's so important about a massage?" But anyone who has actually gotten one knows. It's not just about getting refreshed, it's about clearing your mind and organizing your mind. Especially for a person who lives alone, someone's warm touch can be a great comfort.
