Body Therapy in Southwest Seoul
— Magok, Gayang, Deungchon, Hwagok, Banghwa and Balsan
Search for body therapy in Seoul and you will find plenty of similar names with very different programmes behind them, which makes comparing hard. That is because "body therapy" is not one technique — it is a broad term for care that covers the whole body. This guide splits our body programmes into hands-on care and care using marine minerals and a device, suggests which suits which kind of day, and explains how to reach us from each neighbourhood in Gangseo-gu.
Two Directions Make It Simple
Fiorael's body programmes fall into two broad groups.
- Hands-on — full-body relaxing care using only warm oil and the flow of the hands
- Minerals and device — care that combines French marine mineral ingredients with a Thermawave device to refine skin texture and body line
Neither is "better"; they simply offer a different kind of time. Choose based on whether you need quiet rest, or would also like to look after skin that feels dry and your body line. One programme brings both together.
Hands-On — Fiore Relax Body Therapy
A full-body session carried by a soft, flowing oil touch with no heavy pressure. Because the focus is on an unbroken rhythm rather than on force, it is an easy place to start if body therapy is new to you.
Fiore Flow
Fiore Relax Body Therapy
70 minutes
The core session — gentle oil work across the whole body. A comfortable length to fit between plans, such as a weekday evening.
Signature
Signature Fiore Relax Body Therapy
100 minutes
The same flow extended to 100 minutes, with a wider range and a longer finishing stage.
How to choose the oil and decide between 70 and 100 minutes is covered in our oil therapy guide for southwest Seoul.
Minerals and Device — Three Mineral Body Care Options
These run as part of our Daily Life Care. The moist feel of French marine mineral ingredients is paired with Thermawave, a device care that uses warm waves. There are three options depending on time and content.
Starter
Mineral Body Care Starter
35 minutes
A short session using marine minerals and Thermawave to refine the body line. We suggest it first if you have not tried device care before.
Basic
Mineral Body Care Basic
70 minutes
Marine minerals and Thermawave with time to spare. Looks after dry-looking skin texture while you rest comfortably.
Signature
Mineral Body Care Signature
100 minutes
Marine minerals and Thermawave with hands-on work added, so you experience both directions in a single visit.
Current details are on our Daily Life Care page.

Body Care for Particular Times of Life
Some programmes are designed around special periods. Many guests who start by looking for body therapy end up asking about these.
Wedding Care
Refines the upper-body and neck line before the wedding and looks after the tiredness that comes with preparing. We suggest starting 5–6 weeks ahead. See our Wedding Care page.
Postnatal Care
Body condition care after giving birth, gently looking after shoulders that feel heavy and a changed body line. If your doctor has given you any precautions, please tell us when booking. Postnatal Care page
Care for Parents
Built around the 100-minute Mineral Body Care Signature, caring for your parents' skin condition and giving them real rest. It is often booked as a gift. Care for Parents page
How Your First Visit Runs
💡 Tip. If you have plans after an oil-based programme, add 20–30 minutes for showering and getting ready when you book, so nothing feels rushed.
Getting Here From Each Neighbourhood
Fiorael is on the 3rd floor of 11 Magokjungang 2-ro, Gangseo-gu — 2 minutes on foot from Magok Station Exit 5 (Line 5) and 5 minutes from Magongnaru Station Exit 3 (Line 9). Parking in the building is free. Preferred times and programmes vary a little by neighbourhood, so we have noted those too.
Magok-dong
Guests looking for body therapy in Magok-dong often drop in straight after work or around lunchtime, so shorter options like the 35-minute Mineral Body Care Starter are a common question. From inside the Magok district you can simply walk.
Balsan-dong
For body therapy in Balsan-dong, Balsan Station is one stop from Magok on Line 5. Being right by Magok Station (Balsan) in Gangseo-gu means a short trip, so evening slots that let you head straight home to rest work well.
Gayang-dong
If you are looking for body therapy in Gayang-dong, Gayang Station is two stops from Magongnaru on Line 9 with no transfer. Some guests set aside a weekend for a 100-minute session.
Deungchon-dong
Body therapy in Deungchon-dong is four stops away on Line 9 from Deungchon Station. If you are booking Care for Parents and driving them over, the free parking in our building makes it easy.
Hwagok-dong
For body therapy in Hwagok-dong, Hwagok Station is three stops from Magok on Line 5. We are open until 2 am daily with the last appointment at 1 am, so late-finishing days still work.
Banghwa-dong
Body therapy in Banghwa-dong is connected by Line 5 from Banghwa and Gaehwasan stations, and by Line 9 from Sinbanghwa. Gimpo Airport is close, so some guests visit around a trip — on flying days, please leave extra time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Is body therapy the same as oil therapy?
We use "body therapy" as an umbrella term for care that covers the whole body. Oil therapy (the Fiore Relax Body Therapy) is the hands-on programme within it, while Mineral Body Care uses marine minerals together with a device.
Q. What does the Thermawave device care feel like?
It is a device care with a noticeable warm sensation. If the temperature or feel is uncomfortable at any point, tell us and we will adjust it right away.
Q. Can I have hands-on care and device care on the same day?
The 100-minute Mineral Body Care Signature combines marine minerals and Thermawave with hands-on work. For other combinations, please ask before booking.
Q. Do you take male guests?
It depends on the programme, so please message us before booking and we will let you know the available times.
