Gan•ban (short for Ganbanyoku) provides the unique spa wellness experience you have been searching for. (Gan=rock, Ban=board, Yoku=Bath) is a therapeutic studio with a warm volcanic rock floor. The space feels much like a warm summer’s day. These warmed beds soothe muscles, accelerate metabolism, eliminate toxins from the body and allow for increased circulation while heating your inner core. Great for your body, mind & spirit! Originating in Indonesia, in the last 10 years it has become popular in Japan and Australia with about a thousand gan•ban’s operating. At iwa, we have three gan• ban suites, the first is our main studio to accommodate up to 4 people socially distanced, and a private suites for couples.

The benefits

The range of benefits are broad and consist of:

• pain relief
• detoxification
• weight loss
• reduced stress
• boosted immunity
• insomnia relief

How you use it

Dressed in comfortable athletic clothes or a provided jinbei robe, you will lay down directly on the warm rock bed and relax, that’s it! The rock beds emit negative ions and far infrared rays to deeply heat and detoxify the body. It’s a unique concept which is simple, yet very rewarding:  You lay down on rock stone beds for 15-20min. intervals with a 3-5 min. cool down period between each interval.

How does it work?

The rock is heated by steam from the boiling water underneath the floor. It is only when the stone slabs are heated that they emit negative ions and far infrared rays.

What are far infrared rays?

Far infrared rays are waves of energy that are also emitted from the sun but are invisible to the naked eye. They penetrate the human body and are absorbed by cells causing a number of reactions such as dilation of blood vessels which improve blood circulation, speed up the metabolism and help  eliminate waste.

What are negative ions?

Negative ions are molecules in the air that we inhale without our knowledge and are naturally found in abundance at the beach, in the mountains, near waterfalls, and many other places that people like to go because of its soothing, feel-good effect these surroundings have upon us. Once in our bloodstream, negative ions are believed to produce biochemical reactions; they break down toxins, increase levels of serotonin, relieve stress, and boost our daytime energy.

A renewing body massage for the romantics at heart! We begin this this deeply hydrating treatment with an essential oil infused, heated and weighted pad placed on the back for instant warmth and relaxation. Arms, legs, and shoulders will then dance in love with a peptide and emollient oil body mousse massage. This fluffy moisturizer we’ve dubbed Moon Dip visibly reduces the look of fine lines, while also pulling double-duty to bring out your most natural glow. Who can’t help but fall in love with that?
