Before you go your separate ways into the locker rooms you'll probably want to make a plan for how long you'll soak, and when/where to meet up back outside. I assume you are a hetero couple? If so, just be aware that the soaking pools and steam rooms are all single sex (they are totally nude) and are in the locker room areas. The food is decent basic Korean, it won't hold up to a fine dining restaurant, but it's not bad. A lot of the dry massage is done through a thin sheet and the technique is just.different. If you are used to getting massages, just don't expect it to be similar to Swedish or what you'd get from a place like Massage Envy. I usually go for a body scrub with wet massage. The weekends get crowded but if you're going on a Tuesday it shouldn't be too bad. If not, you'll still find savings of up to 75 percent on stress-reducing treatments.Opposite of u/OolahClaire, I've been to King Spa many times but never gone to Island Spa in Edison because it's farther from us. So head on over to Groupon ASAP to see if spas in your area (or where those you still need gifts for live) are offering the $30 massage deals. Or know a couple in Portland, OR who might need to unwind? Jin Massage is offering a couple's one-hour, deep-tissue massage with coconut oil, essential oils and hot stones for only $168 for Wellness Week. In Salem, MA, Joy Wellness is offering a 90-minute luxury foot spa for two with infrared sauna for just $56 with code SPA30 - that's just 28 bucks per person! Massage Green, located in Westminster, CO (as well as multiple other locations across the country), has a 60-minute massage with up to three sauna sessions for $63 (originally $210). And how many opportunities are there for that? It's a great way to feel good and do good at the same time. How? Because many of the spas on the site are local and run by people in your very neighborhood who can always use your help, particularly this time of year.

Groupon's Wellness Week deals not only help you and your wallet, they also provide a way to help small businesses. Can you smell the stress washing away? (Photo: Getty) It feels good to give back
