Clean Care | Our Visit

When you walk a lot and enjoy delicious food during your trip to Seoul, you may suddenly start to feel heavy and bloated. Today, we visited Clean Care, a specialized diet and body-shaping care center located in Mapo!

Clean Care’s C.L.E.A.N. stands for “Client Lab. Esthetic Anti-aging Nutrition.” What makes it special is that it is more than just a massage shop. It is a total care center that offers everything from body and skincare treatments to diet and nutritional guidance.

After checking your current body condition with an InBody analysis, you can enjoy Bio Photon heat therapy and Clean Care’s signature body treatments. It is a great place not only for diet and body-shaping care, but also for relieving the fatigue and swelling that build up during your travels.

A Professional Body Care Space in a Calm and Cozy Atmosphere

When you first step into Clean Care, the calm and cozy atmosphere immediately stands out.

The store’s main colors are brown, mint green, and ivory. Since this is primarily a space for adult treatments, dark brown is used as the base color, while mint green and ivory add accents to create an atmosphere that feels both comfortable and vibrant.

Products actually used for treatments at Clean Care were neatly displayed on one side of the store. Being able to see exactly which products they use made me feel even more confident in the services. It also gave me the impression that this is more than just a place to get a massage, it is a professional space dedicated to caring for the body and improving posture.

I was also impressed by how thoughtfully every detail was considered, from the layout of the space to the products used during treatments.

Clean Care has separate treatment rooms, so you can enjoy your treatment more comfortably without worrying about other people’s eyes. The entire space was also kept neat and tidy, which helped me feel relaxed throughout the treatment.

The restroom was also kept very clean, giving me the impression that cleanliness is a priority throughout the entire store.

Now, let’s take a look at the treatment I experienced firsthand at Clean Care.

Pre-Treatment Consultation

When you arrive at Clean Care, your treatment does not begin right away. First, you will have a consultation about your current physical condition and any concerns you may have. You can discuss your usual lifestyle habits, weight management, and any specific areas of your body that you are particularly concerned about, and decide which areas you would like to focus on.

I told them that my body tends to swell easily, and that recently, after doing a lot of walking, my whole body had been feeling a little heavy.

Everyone has different body types and concerns, so I appreciated that they checked my current condition before beginning, rather than starting with a set treatment right away.

If you are regularly working on your diet, it is also a good idea to talk about your usual eating habits and any concerns you have about your weight!

&InBody Weight Check Before Treatment

After the consultation, we had an InBody scan and checked our weight.

That was when it really started to sink in that I had come to a diet management clinic, haha.

Rather than simply checking your body shape from the outside, the InBody scan provides a detailed look at your current body composition. The consultation and treatments are then tailored accordingly. Your weight is also checked before treatment and measured again once everything is finished, so you can compare the difference before and after.

We usually feel a little nervous when stepping on the scales, but this time, I was actually curious to see how things would change after the treatment!

Changing into Treatment Clothes

After completing the measurements, I changed into the treatment clothes provided before starting the session.

Since the Bio Photon treatment that followed warms the entire body and can make you sweat quite a bit, I changed clothes first so I could receive the treatment comfortably.

All the essentials were also well stocked at the shop. Disposable underwear, a treatment gown, a hair dryer, and other basic items were provided, so it was convenient because I did not need to bring much with me.

In particular, you sweat more than expected during the Bio Photon treatment, so it was great to be able to freshen up and dry my hair after the session. I also liked that I could visit easily without worrying about what to bring, even while traveling.

Bio Photon Thermal Care

Now, the main treatment at 'Clean Care' begins!

The first treatment was approximately 40 minutes of Bio Photon light therapy.

Bio Photon thermal care uses heat energy from the far-infrared spectrum to warm the body. At Clean Care, it is used as a thermal program for weight loss and body-shape management.

As you lie comfortably inside the device, your body gradually warms up and you naturally begin to sweat. At first, it felt pleasantly warm, but as time passed, heat rose throughout my body and I ended up sweating much more than expected!

Clean Care explains that Photon light therapy helps warm the body, promote healthy blood circulation and metabolism, and support the elimination of moisture and waste through sufficient sweating, as well as overall weight loss and body-shape management.

It is especially useful for those who want to manage their weight and body lines, as you can receive treatment while checking your current condition alongside the InBody results measured beforehand.

After lying comfortably for about 40 minutes and working up a good sweat, I felt noticeably refreshed and lighter than before the treatment.

However, changes in weight immediately after thermal care may also be affected by temporary water loss due to sweating. Rather than viewing this as an immediate reduction in body fat after a single treatment, it is better to think of it as a program that supports consistent weight loss and body-shape management.

It did not suddenly become hot at first. Instead, my body gradually warmed up as if it were being gently wrapped in warmth, making the experience more comfortable than I expected.

I wondered, “Will I really sweat that much?” but after a little while, my body gradually started to warm up.

Then, at some point, I began to sweat, and by the latter part of the session, I was covered in sweat from head to toe! It was fascinating that my whole body warmed up and started sweating even though I was lying comfortably without constantly moving, unlike during exercise.

Especially when traveling in Korea, you tend to keep enjoying delicious foods such as meat, stews, and late-night snacks, and walking around all day can sometimes make your body feel heavier than usual.

I also felt a little weighed down before the treatment, but after working up a good sweat, I personally felt much more refreshed and lighter!

Body Care Performed Directly by a Chiropractor

Want to achieve smoother-looking calves?

After warming up thoroughly with Bio Photon, it was time for the main body line treatment. We started with the calves, which are usually the first area to swell and accumulate fatigue.

Clean Care's calf treatment covers the entire front, sides, and back of the calves, from the ankles to above the knees. It is especially recommended for those who spend a lot of time walking or standing and whose legs easily feel heavy, those concerned about tight, tense calves, and those who want smoother, more defined-looking calf lines.

After spending all day exploring Seoul, my legs felt heavy and my calves were quite sore. Once the therapist carefully worked through each tight area, it felt much more refreshing than I expected.

Rather than feeling like a light massage, the treatment seemed to release tension in my calves while also shaping the overall appearance of my legs.

The treatment was especially thorough from the ankles upward, so I think it would be a great choice for those concerned about their lower-body lines or whose legs feel tired after walking a lot during their trip.

The upper leg in the photo is the one that was treated first. When I compared it with the untreated leg, I personally thought the calf line looked a little smoother and more defined, and the swollen feeling seemed to have noticeably decreased.

It was even more fascinating to be able to compare both sides right away. Haha. After the treatment was finished, the lines looked much cleaner, and my legs also felt noticeably more comfortable and lighter, so I was very satisfied!

Focused care for those bothersome upper arms, too!

After the calves, I received focused care for my arms. Even when dieting, the arms can be one of the most difficult areas to shape as much as you would like. This treatment is especially popular among those concerned about tight areas in their upper arms or uneven-looking arm lines.

At Clean Care, the treatment is not simply about kneading the arms. It combines gentle release of tight arm muscles with care focused on the overall shape of the arms. Since the therapist checks the condition of your arms and concentrates on the areas you are most concerned about, it seemed like an especially satisfying option for anyone who has long felt self-conscious about their upper-arm lines.

When I tried it myself, the pressure was pleasantly firm and refreshing. The therapist carefully worked through the tight areas while treating the entire arm, so it felt like more than a treatment solely for slimming down. It also helped release tension in areas of the arms that are not used often, while caring for the overall body lines.

I would especially recommend it to anyone who feels self-conscious about their arms when wearing sleeveless or fitted clothing, or anyone who wants to focus more intensively on their arm lines alongside exercise and dietary management. One of the charms of Clean Care's body care is that you can receive focused treatment for each area of concern, from the calves to the arms.

The pressure can be adjusted to suit your condition during the treatment, so if it feels too strong, simply let the therapist know right away.

Since I had walked a lot during my trip and was feeling tired all over, the firm, pressing sensation felt especially refreshing.

While Bio Photon was a process that warmed my body and helped me sweat, the body care that followed felt like the perfect finishing touch, directly releasing tension throughout my body. Receiving the two treatments back-to-back made for a great combination.

Checking My Weight Again After the Treatment!

After all the treatments were complete, I weighed myself again just as I had at the beginning to check the changes before and after the session.

During the Bio Photon heat treatment, I had worked up far more of a sweat than expected over about 40 minutes. I then received body contouring care for areas I was concerned about, such as my calves and arms, so I was especially curious about the final results..!

When I stepped on the scale myself and compared the numbers from before and after the treatment, it was fun to see the changes directly, rather than simply feeling that my body was lighter or more refreshed than before.

Of course, since you sweat quite a bit during the Bio Photon treatment, temporary changes in your body's water levels caused by perspiration may also affect your weight immediately afterward. Rather than considering all of the weight lost before and after the treatment to be body fat loss, it is better to view it as part of an overall diet and body management routine.

After completing all the treatments, I was more satisfied by the fact that the heaviness and stiffness I had felt before the session had eased, and that my body felt much more refreshed and lighter after sweating sufficiently, than by exactly how much my weight had changed!

In addition, the chiropractor carefully checks areas that are particularly tense or knotted during the treatment and explains why those areas tend to become tense in the first place.

Tension can build up in certain areas due to your usual posture, the way you walk, or your daily habits. Rather than simply loosening the tense areas, the chiropractor also explains which postures and habits you should adjust, as well as how to stretch and care for your body at home, which I really appreciated.

That is why the experience felt more meaningful than simply getting a massage and leaving. I was able to learn more about my body's current condition and how to take better care of it going forward, which made me even more satisfied!

After visiting Clean Care in person, I realized that it was definitely different from the typical massage shops I had initially imagined.

I would especially recommend it to anyone who wants to focus a little more on dieting and body management while also relieving travel fatigue, rather than simply getting a massage to relax after a long trip.

If you cannot give up delicious food during your trip to Korea but are concerned about feeling swollen and heavy, are interested in dieting or body management, or want to try something a little different from a typical K-beauty experience, be sure to visit Clean Care!

Located in Mapo, it is also convenient to visit during a Seoul trip. Since appointments are available during certain evening and weekend hours, I recommend adding it to your itinerary as a way to care for your body after a full day of sightseeing :)
