Korean Massage

Korean massage is a type of therapeutic massage that incorporates various techniques such as acupressure, deep tissue massage, and stretching. It focuses on increasing circulation, releasing tension in muscles and joints, and promoting overall relaxation and well-being. Korean massage may also incorporate the use of hot stones, herbal remedies, and other traditional Korean healing techniques. It is often performed on a mat on the floor and may involve the therapist using their feet, knees, and elbows in addition to their hands. Overall, Korean massage can be a deeply relaxing and rejuvenating experience for both the body and mind. Hayyan767 (talk) 13:59, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The link is to an ad for a particular massage service, and hardly a reliable source. --Macrakis (talk) 21:05, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
