If you thought spas were only for facials and massages, guess again. Gwyneth Paltrow is recommending a new treatment, but this one is just for the ladies.
The 42-year-old actress, who regularly posts about must-see places and must-have items on her website Goop, recently wrote about Tikkun, a Korean spa in Los Angeles. She opens by listing the usual great things you can find at a spa — sauna, infrared heat therapies, a clay room — but buries the lead.
"The real golden ticket here is the Mugworth V-Steam: You sit on what is essentially a mini-throne, and a combination of infrared and mugwort steam cleanses your uterus, et al," she says. "It is an energetic release — not just a steam douche — that balances female hormone levels. If you’re in LA, you have to do it."
It's like she feeds off of regular women hating her. I feel like before every public statement she makes, she sits down with her publicist and they assess how much it will piss off stay-at-home mums. The more it will piss them off, the more she'll want to say it.
To kill the germs? What kind of genius tip? Bookmarked, thanks gurl

So should GP add vagina expert to her resume? As with anything Gwyneth does, says, or writes, opinions are sure to follow. According to Dr. Jen Gunter, a board certified OB/GYN and expert in vulvovaginal disorders, Paltrow doesn't know what she's talking about.
"Steam is probably not good for your vagina. Herbal steam is no better and quite possibly worse. It is most definitely more expensive," she blogs.
People from L.A should go check it out, I need to know how it goes
