Hello evryone
It had been a dreary day, with rain pouring relentlessly since the early hours. The persistent drizzle kept the temperature at a cool, comfortable level, a pleasant contrast to the usual tropical heat. By midday, the sky remained overcast, and a gentle chill lingered in the air. The rhythm of the raindrops created a soothing backdrop to the otherwise uneventful day.
Around 1 p.m., feeling the need to shake off the damp chill, I decided to visit the Island Herb Spa at Chalong. It had been months since my last visit, and the thought of the herbal sauna's warmth was inviting. The drive there was surprisingly smooth. The absence of rush hour traffic allowed me to reach my destination quickly and effortlessly, gliding along the slick roads as the rain continued to fall.
When I arrived at Island Herb Spa, known for its relaxing sauna and a variety of massage services, I was greeted by the soothing scent of essential oils and the soft hum of ambient music. I approached the reception desk and informed the staff that I only wished to use the sauna today. The friendly employee smiled and charged me 150 baht, explaining that this fee granted unlimited access to the sauna for the day.
She handed me a neatly arranged basket containing a colorful sarong, a plush towel, and a bottle of chilled water. Thanking her, I made my way to the changing area. The spa's interior was a haven of tranquility, with dim lighting and gentle decor that invited relaxation.
After receiving the basket from the staff, I made my way towards the sauna area. The spa was quite spacious, with various massage rooms lining the corridors. The sauna zone, located at the back, was divided into sections. I remembered how, before the COVID outbreak, this place used to be bustling with customers. Back then, the sauna was separated into distinct zones for men and women, ensuring privacy and comfort for all. However, with the decline in customer numbers, the management had decided to open just one mixed zone for everyone.
I entered the locker room to stow away my bag and valuables. The locker room was quiet and well-maintained, a serene prelude to the relaxation that awaited me. After securing my belongings, I changed into the provided sarong, feeling the soft fabric against my skin. Ready for the sauna, I decided to take a detour and check out the swimming pool area.
The pool was inviting, with its clear, calm water reflecting the soft lighting of the spa. The area was mostly empty, adding to the tranquil atmosphere. After a brief stroll around the pool, I made my way to the herbal steamer, eager to soak in the warmth and let the fragrant herbs work their magic.
The spa greeted me with its familiar, calming ambiance. The scent of herbs and essential oils wafted through the air, promising relaxation and rejuvenation. I checked in and made my way to the sauna, eagerly anticipating the comforting heat.
As I settled into the herbal sauna, the warmth enveloped me, melting away the chill that had settled into my bones. The combination of the soothing heat and the fragrant herbs created a tranquil cocoon, a stark contrast to the cold, rainy world outside. I closed my eyes, letting the warmth seep into my skin, feeling my muscles unwind and my mind drift into a state of blissful relaxation.
I went in and out of the sauna several times, each time being enveloped in the sweet, invigorating scent of Thai herbs. The aroma was deeply refreshing, filling my lungs with each breath and infusing me with a sense of rejuvenation. To ensure the heat wasn’t too intense for my body, I limited my time in the sauna to about five to seven minutes per session.
After each sauna session, I stepped out and made my way to the large jacuzzi, which resembled a miniature swimming pool. The contrast between the hot sauna and the cool, bubbling water was exhilarating. The jacuzzi's warm water massaged my muscles, providing a perfect balance to the intense heat of the sauna.
I repeated this cycle of sauna and jacuzzi about five or six times, each round enhancing my sense of relaxation and well-being. The process became a rhythmic dance of heat and cool, each phase amplifying the benefits of the other.
By the time I decided to leave, I felt thoroughly refreshed and revitalized. The rain was still falling gently outside, but I no longer felt the chill. Instead, I carried the warmth and tranquility of the herbal sauna with me, feeling ready to face the world anew.
