Having a Dry Spell?

JeJu Sauna

We know. The last time you took a Korean spa tip from an alternative weekly paper, you ended up …

Let’s just say the wrong end was up.

But we’re so glad we gave 24-hour, $25 JeJu Sauna at try. At 11 p.m.

Check in, grab locker keys (separate shoe and clothes storage keeps chi in check) and change into a spa-issued shorts and tee set.

Seven dry sauna chambers — built and heat regulated for specific intents — will keep you busy while you sweat out toxins and boost blood flow in herbal-scented rooms lined in charcoal, rock salt, and healing gem stones.

There’s a glass-enclosed indoor pool, a cafe serving smoothies and noodle plates ’til 3 a.m., and an upstairs smoking suite for escaping all the detox taking place down below.

Now that we’ve cleared the air.

JeJu Sauna, 3555 Gwinnett Place Drive, Duluth (678-336-7414 or jejusauna.net).
