Dujeong-dong massage shop in Cheonan: solo 90-minute aroma oil, Puan

It's been a while since I posted a beauty story. My body's been feeling stiff these past few days, and my toe is still healing so I can't even go to the gym ㅠㅠ Felt like I was retaining water too, so I went to get a massage. This is the place I went to with a friend before for a Thai massage, but this time I went solo~ Super refreshing, highly recommend!

Where is Puan Massage Cheonan Dujeong Branch, and where do you park?

Puan Massage Cheonan Dujeong Branch is on the 4th floor of a building tucked inside the Dujeong-dong food alley. I parked in the alley.

You need to book ahead. I'm more of an oil massage person than Thai massage, so today I came for an oil massage. It's on the 4th floor of the building, so just take the elevator up. When you go up, the female owner is there, and Thai therapists come to do the massages.

The clean, comfortable massage rooms and the friendly owner made it a fine atmosphere to visit alone. When you first arrive, they give you tea and do a foot massage. If you leave a review, they also do a scrub foot massage — make sure to get it~ The therapist scrubbed my feet. There was also a discount coupon when booking through Naver, so check for that when you book.

The shop was clean, which I liked right away.

Foot scrub care and burdock tea before the massage

🌱My feet got some well-deserved pampering after a long time. While they scrub-massage your feet, you relax sipping the burdock tea they prepare. Once that's done, they guide you to the massage room.

There are massage rooms lined along the corridor like this. When I came with my friend it was a Thai massage, but this time being oil, I was guided to a solo room~ 🤎 The vibe is bright, clean, and comfortable. I should come back whenever my body feels stiff. Good to come alone, and next time I'd love to bring my mom too. Also seems like a good date course.

Puan Massage courses and the overnight sleep option

Puan also has recommended courses. What I got was the 90-minute aroma oil massage. For the Thai massage, they use ya monk cream apparently. There's also a sleep guide.

• Sleep option available for 90-min course or longer (checkout at 10am)
• Sleep fee of ₩10,000 applies

I booked through Naver Reservations, where you can check prices for each course before booking.

There are massage rooms along every corridor. I visited around 1pm, and there was a mother-daughter pair as well as a solo woman. They also give a ₩10,000 discount at member rate for the back stone massage plus full-body aroma massage. A lot of people also get the vitamin cream massage.

What the 90-minute aroma oil massage was like

They warm the flooring under the massage area, so you stay warm the whole time. For the aroma massage, you undress and put on a robe. Disposable underwear is provided too. After changing into the robe and finishing a foot bath, the massage begins.

The massage bed was warm, which made it comfortable. They cover you with a big towel and only uncover the part being worked on. Each room has its own AC, so you just ask if you want the temperature adjusted. I don't like it too hard, and the pressure was just right for me. If you want it stronger, they'll adjust to match. Everyone's different, so talking to your therapist gets you a more satisfying massage.

Partway through I started dozing off, and afterward my eyes felt clear and refreshed — very satisfying. My body had felt so heavy lately, and it felt much lighter afterward, making me want to come back regularly. After the massage, they finish up by pressing a towel all over to wipe off the oil.

Why Puan Massage works solo, with family or on a date

Puan Massage is clean and friendly, and being tucked inside the Dujeong-dong food alley makes it easy to access. I'd also recommend it as a date course. The 90-minute massage course was satisfying, and I'm curious about the stone massage next time too~ Recommending Puan Massage, a Cheonan massage shop^^
