Chạm Spa is at 82/20A Mạc Đĩnh Chi in Tân Định Ward, close to Independence Palace and the Lê Duẩn hotels — convenient if you are looking for Basic Herbal Head Spa near you in District 1.
Thirty minutes is enough to do one thing properly: clean the scalp and release what is holding tension in it. That is the whole design of this tier. There is no steam, no facial and no extended reflexology sequence — those belong to the longer treatments — and leaving them out is what keeps this at 120,000 ₫ and short enough to fit into a lunch break.
It is the version we recommend to anyone who has never had a head spa. Most guests are surprised by how much tension sits in a scalp they have never had touched, and half an hour is plenty to discover that before committing to a longer ritual.

What the 30 minutes covers
- Organic herbal rinse. A botanical wash that lifts the build-up of sweat, sunscreen and city dust that accumulates fast in this climate — more than a shampoo does at home, because it is worked in slowly rather than rushed.
- Scalp massage. Sustained work across the whole scalp, which is where most of the release happens.
- Pressure-point work. Focused attention along the base of the skull and into the neck, the junction where scalp tension and neck tension meet.
- Rinse and finish. Clean, and dried enough to leave comfortably.
Who this tier is right for
- First-time head spa guests who want to find out what it is before booking something longer.
- A short break in a working day since 30 minutes fits a lunch hour in District 1 with time to spare.
- Itchy or heavy scalps from humidity, sweat and daily sunscreen.
- Regular maintenance for guests who come often and want the cleanse without the full ritual each time.
- A first spa visit generally as nothing here requires undressing or lying face-down.
What the longer treatments add
Being straightforward about what this tier does not include is more useful than overselling it. Each step up adds something specific:
If you are choosing between this and the Zen tier, the deciding question is whether you want a clean, relaxed scalp in half an hour, or a deeper wind-down with steam and longer reflexology.
Practical things to know
Come with your hair as it is — washing beforehand is pointless, and styling product makes no difference. You stay fully clothed and reclined throughout. Your hair will be damp when you leave, which matters if you are heading straight back to a meeting; ask and we will dry it further.
Tell your therapist about any scalp condition, psoriasis or eczema, recent coloring or chemical treatment, or allergies to herbal preparations, so products can be adjusted or avoided.
