Jjim Jil Bang Room Features:
Uses of infrared rays: infrared rays act like sunlight but do not contain harmful ultraviolet rays. Infrared sauna is a modern form of sauna by using a light beam to shine deep into the skin, heating the body, causing the body to sweat, helping to improve blood circulation, promote the creation of new cells, while with a normal sauna, the heat will only affect the surface of the skin. When we sauna, infrared rays easily penetrate the tissues, use heat to burn fat and release it in the form of sweat. People who sauna with infrared rays 3-4 times a week can reduce health risks by more than half compared to people who do not sauna. That is also the reason why many people go to saunas to relax and relieve stress, and this habit has become extremely popular in Korea and Japan.
Different from traditional sauna: although at low temperature, it still speeds up the sweating process, traditional sauna eliminates 3% toxins – 97% water, infrared sauna eliminates 20% toxins – 80% water. Infrared rays penetrate deep inside to clean up toxins in the blood vessels, creating a healthy body.
Uses of Negative Ions (-): Negative ions act as antioxidants. According to many medical studies, negative ions are beneficial to health and positive ions are harmful to health. When the body accumulates a lot of negative ions, it will neutralize harmful positive ions (free radicals), making them no longer able to cause disease in the body, having the effect of anti-oxidizing cells, rejuvenating the skin. Negative ions are abundant in rivers, streams, waterfalls and primeval forests. Positive ions are abundant in dusty environments, electronic devices, etc. Therefore, the body is always in a state of negative ion deficiency, and needs to be supplemented promptly to maintain normal body functions.
Jjim Jil Bang with infrared rays & negative ions is available at the infrared cave, mineral mud room, volcanic rock room, and salt rock room. The infrared cave at Golden Lotus Healing World is designed to help you both rest and relax, while allowing infrared rays to penetrate deep inside to regenerate cells, rejuvenate the skin, and make the skin white and smooth.
Golden Lotus Healing World designed the room with walls made of Loess soil, which has been used by ancient Egyptians for thousands of years as a mineral mask for skin care, and a floor covered with volcanic stones that have a massage effect, combined with a therapeutic sauna that emits negative ions and infrared rays (considered by medicine as a type of “air vitamin”). Volcanic stones are a synthesis of minerals and precious stones in nature that contain a source of energy that clears important acupuncture points on the body, eliminating toxins and heavy metals that cause cancer and modern diseases. In addition, the energy from hot stones when combined with negative ions and infrared rays also helps to erase wrinkles, burn fat and slim the body.
Main effects at Golden Lotus Healing World:
– Detoxification, anti-aging, weight loss and body shaping
– Increase brain activity, help sleep well
– Laxative, promote digestion
– Promote blood circulation, improve cardiovascular health
– Detoxify acne, smooth, bright skin
– Reduce muscle aches, rheumatism, back, neck and shoulder pain.
Golden Lotus Healing World uses pure Himalayan salt taken from the world’s second largest natural mineral salt mine, preserving intact 84 types of minerals that are beneficial to the body, combined with a therapeutic sauna that emits negative ions and infrared rays, which are considered by medicine as a type of “air vitamin“. Under the effects of temperature, negative ions and infrared rays, the natural minerals in the salt crystals are activated to interact, causing a lot of sweat to help reduce fatigue, weakness, stabilize blood pressure, and effectively beautify the skin… Salt has the effect of detoxifying, disinfecting, accelerating metabolism so that the body does not accumulate excess fat, lubricating the heart and kidney. Negative ions help balance the optimal pH to repel diseases, the body is healthy when it has an alkaline pH of 7.4, our living environment is highly acidic (dust, electronics, fast food with lots of grease) making the body susceptible to weakness and disease.

Togul Bang mineral mud room – traditional medicine is designed with natural mineral mud floor and walls made of Loess soil combined with traditional medicine, in addition to being equipped with a steam therapy machine (used in medicine) emitting infrared rays and negative ions. Through many scientific studies, it has been proven that mineral mud is a natural mud formed by geological changes, a natural product of the Earth’s environment due to the biological decomposition of organic substances (herbs, plants, flowers…).
The chemical properties of mud depend on each type of mud but most contain carbonates, sulfates, phosphates, iron and sulfur… Organic and inorganic substances in mud when interacting with the body have a good effect on the endocrine glands, chronic diseases of the musculoskeletal system, bones and joints, balance the activity of the sympathetic nervous system, help the skin to be beautiful, smooth, youthful…
Togul Bang mineral mud room – traditional medicine under the effect of heat, negative ions and infrared rays creates comprehensive effects such as:
– Detoxification, fat burning, body purification
– Promoting metabolism, anti-aging, rejuvenating body cells
– Reducing symptoms of pain, body aches
– Increasing brain productivity, helping to sleep well.
The Eskimos came up with the solution of using snow pressed into bricks to build houses, called “Igloo”. Although cold, it is very good for health. Inspired by that, Golden Lotus Healing World has built an equally interesting Igloo snow room of the Eskimos.
The effect of the cold air of the Igloo Snow room:
– Tightens pores
– Helps increase skin elasticity
– Helps burn excess fat in the abdomen easily.
With a temperature ranging from 4 ~ 8 degrees, depending on the number of people in the room and the frequency of opening the door, the Igloo snow room will bring you the feeling of a magical and exciting snow land.
On average, depending on your body, you steam in a hot room for about 15 ~ 20 minutes, rest, then switch to a cold room and steam in a cold room for 5 minutes.
Moving between saunas helps promote blood circulation, activate the body’s immunity, remove wrinkles on the face, and create a feeling of relaxation and comfort.
In Japan, Hinoki pine is considered a “gift from the gods”. Since ancient times, Japanese kings have loved to use Hinoki wood to decorate palaces, temples, mausoleums, etc. because its captivating beauty has made the space of the capital become splendid and luxurious. Some compounds contained in the wood have the effect of killing bacteria and resisting mold. In addition, Hinoki also secretes a characteristic “Hinokition” scent that helps the body feel refreshed, reduces stress, fatigue and helps sleep well.
Hinoki itself produces the substance “Phytoncide” which is a natural antibacterial substance to protect the body. Phytoncide has the same effect as antibiotics commonly used in hospitals but does not cause side effects to treat some diseases such as asthma, flu, and infections. Hinoki has a good effect in purifying the air, giving us the feeling of being in a primeval forest with fresh air. Currently, at Golden Lotus Healing World, there is a Hinoki Oxy room for customers to experience.
Main effects:
– Prevents up to 80% of dandruff and foot fungus
– Prevents hair loss, promotes new hair growth
– Effective for 2/3 of people with atopic dermatitis
– Maximum inhibition of infectious diseases
When you get cold, your feet are cold or you have trouble sleeping… then bathing your feet with a combination of hot and cold water is essential. Hot water will push blood to the weak veins in the body, then cold water will push blood circulation back to the body. The exchange between hot and cold water will massage your feet, while stimulating the immune system and helping to relax the nerve endings in the body.
At Golden Lotus Healing World you can enjoy this service in a spacious garden atmosphere, with a view of the green Saigon River in District 2.
The hot and cold contrast bath method is very beneficial for health
Under the influence of hot water, the body is relaxed, and under the influence of cold water, the muscle tension in the body, the flexibility and elasticity of the muscles increase significantly
Hot water causes the pores to expand, while cold water does the opposite, causing the pores to contract. As a result, dirt will escape from the pores on the skin.
Hot and cold contrast baths play a very important role in regulating the nervous system. This therapy helps blood circulation between organs and tissues in the body better, helping to enhance the body’s metabolism. In addition, it also helps the body eliminate impurities in the body. The temperature difference helps to temper the body.
The benefits of a sauna are to strengthen the immune system, improve blood circulation, eliminate toxins, rejuvenate the skin, reduce stress and tension. When you take a sauna by increasing the body temperature, you can kill bacteria, parasites and fungi; at the same time, create an “artificial fever” that stimulates the body’s immune system. Finally, a sauna helps you sweat, eliminate toxins, brighten the skin and prevent acne.
The benefits of steam rooms include relief from joint, muscle and stress pain. Like saunas, the increased temperature in steam rooms improves blood circulation, creating an “artificial fever” that boosts the body’s immune system. Another important benefit of steam rooms is that breathing in steam can help alleviate sinusitis, asthma, allergies and bronchitis. This is absent (or very little) in saunas.
The steam room has natural ingredients with a pleasant aroma, and after the steam bath, you’ll feel much healthier!
After finishing, go up to the first floor of the Jjim Jil Bang area, a very spacious hall with some really big logs, to rest, play, sleep, and relax. The floor is very clean, constantly mopped by the cleaning staff, plus the cool tiled floor, when you lie down you just want to take a nap!
When you get there, ask the staff to help you wrap a sheep’s head scarf around your head to make you look cute and cheesey! You can have fun and take pictures, but remember to keep order so that other people can relax!
Hinoki Oxygen Room
After having fun, let’s continue with the sauna! In this area, we will alternate between infrared hot sauna rooms, such as: herbal mud room, Himalayan salt room, volcanic rock room,… pure oxygen room, cold sauna room with Igloo snow room,… Each room will have different health benefits, reading that there are many useful uses!
- Note: the maximum time in the sauna room is only 15-20 minutes. Depending on each person’s physical condition. Listen to the staff’s instructions, if you want to lose weight, alternate between hot sauna and cold sauna rooms, the specific time is also there!
After finishing the steam bath, go to the infrared cave area to lie down and rest. Lying down and resting also has good effects on health, such as: improving blood circulation, promoting the creation of new cells, reducing pain, clearing the cardiovascular system, improving the skin, treating acne, pimples, … just lying down has such effects! I love it!
For those who want to rest, there is also a separate resting room, or you can lie right in this lobby! Hee hee!
This is the GYM area for exercise and sports!
There are also lounge chairs, hammocks or tents for resting! How interesting
The coffee area is quite beautifully decorated!
After a while, I felt hungry, so I went to the counter to buy some food to fill my stomach!
No need to pay in cash, just swipe your watch, then go back to the reception desk to pay!
There are so many delicious dishes! Especially when I saw this grilled egg in a movie, I bought it to try right away!
I brought it down to the first floor to eat for a cool and comfortable feeling!
Peeling eggs in the Korean style is to smash each other’s heads like this! So much fun!
When you feel hungry, you don’t need to go far, just go down to the ground floor and eat your fill!
In addition, if you want to use massage services, they are also available here, I will post the price list for your reference!
Before leaving, go to the bathroom to clean up and leave, your body will be healthy and relaxed!
I had a chance to explore the sauna, I tried it once and I loved it: it not only helps the body become healthier, but also helps the spirit to be refreshed, plus there are many interesting and fun services, you can stay here all day!
