Back Care

Back care is a Korean esthetic service term that may refer to skin care for the back, hands-on work around the back, or a combination of both. The program name alone does not show which meaning is intended.

Skin care and hands-on care

Back skin care may include cleansing, exfoliation, and moisturization. Hands-on back care works with the skin and soft tissue around the shoulder blades and spine. Some services combine the two.

Other back-care labels

Back circulation care is another nonstandard industry label. Deungseum Therapy is Meccrom’s own name for a specific back-focused service concept. It should not be assumed to mean the same thing as every general back-care program.

Medical boundaries

Back care is not spinal correction or treatment for the cause of back pain. Severe pain, arm numbness, weakness, or pain after an injury needs medical assessment.
