'It's the golden ticket': Now Gwyneth Paltrow waxes lyrical about steam cleaning her private parts in new GOOP post

When she first started writing on her GOOP blog, she stuck to the subjects of healthy recipes and chic handbags.

But on Wednesday Gwyneth Paltrow went off course to focus on spas for private female parts. The 42-year-old actress recommended a vaginal spa in Santa Monica where women have their vagina steamed.

This isn't the first time the mother of two has talked about her private parts. In 2013 she said she 'rocked a '70s vibe' with her pubic hair.

Talking her lady parts again: Gwyneth Paltrow, pictured on January 21 at the Hollywood premiere of Mortdecai, wrote about having her vagina steamed in a recent GOOP post

She was one of many celebs on the red carpet at the Mortecai premiere in LA, but Gwyneth Paltrow stood out in a sky full of stars wearing this incredible Grecian inspired blue teal gown.

Showing us how successful her January detox has been by divulging her lithe upper arms and miniscule waist in the floor-grazing number from Lanvin’s Spring/Summer 2015 collection, Gwyneth dropped jaws as she played on the gown's moody shade with blue strappy sandals and statement gem coloured earrings. Alber Elbaz centred this collection around elegant, draped numbers in dark hues which exude timeless and understated chic - and we think his plan might have worked out in this case.

Less cocktail and punchy than Lanvin’s usual dresses in bright jewel tones, we presume Lanvin’s slightly pared back approach to evening dressing is what attracted sartorially subtle Gwyneth to the collection for a red carpet event. It looks impossibly stylish without giving off try-hard vibes.

And although you can't buy the SS15 line on the web, you can take a peek at Lanvin's current collection at Net-A-Porter. If you're taking inspiration from Gwyneth for your next ball, then check out our affordable alternatives in the options below, starting from under $35 at Asos.

'Tikkun is the next level when it comes to Korean spas, combining high-tech far infrared heat with traditional Korean sauna therapies,' the Mortdecai actress tamely began her post.

'So, if you want to lay down in a Himalayan salt brick tiled sauna, or sit in a Hwangto clay room, you get the added benefit of far infrared heat. And, in addition to the sauna rooms, there’s a long menu of massages and kick-a** body scrubs to complement the sauna time.'

The blonde got more specific four sentences down when she added, 'We’re burying the lede though, because 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.'

Where she gets her work done: The 42-year-old actress recommended the Tikkun Spa in Santa Monica

She gave this place a thumbs up: 'Tikkun is the next level when it comes to Korean spas, combining high-tech far infrared heat with traditional Korean sauna therapies,' the Iron Man actress tamely began her post

She had a lot to say about this place: Paltrow wrote, 'f you want to lay down in a Himalayan salt brick tiled sauna, or sit in a Hwangto clay room, you get the added benefit of far infrared heat. And, in addition to the sauna rooms, there’s a long menu of massages and kick-a** body scrubs to complement the sauna time'

Where the work is done: The spa offers private rooms with beds and a bathtub for the sessions

The ex of Chris Martin then explained, '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. '

Tikkun Holistic Spa is located in Santa Monica, not far from the Pacific Palisades home the Oscar winner now resides in.

In 2013 the Shakespeare In Love actress told Ellen DeGeneres that when wearing a sheer dress to the Iron Man 3 premiere she 'went scrambling for a razor' to trim her '70s vibe' pubic hair to make sure nothing would show.

Her friend Cameron Diaz then talked about an unnamed friend who does not groom her lady parts.

Cameron told the graphic story of how she and some friends pinned their pal down and trimmed her pubic hair, suggesting that the person in question just might be Gwyneth.

‘I have a girlfriend who is obsessed with having a 70s bush,’ Cameron divulged in the interview. ‘I mean she is obsessed with it. And when she takes a bath it literally sways like seaweed. I swear.

‘All of my girlfriends were like, “Would you please please please just trim it, please, I can't take it anymore.” And now her husband's in on it, he's like “Really, seriously, I can't take it.”’

Was she taking about Paltrow?: In 2013 Cameron Diaz, seen here on Tuesday with new husband Benji Madden, said she had a 'friend' who had a 'bush' that needed to be trimmed

She joked that the fact her friend’s husband puts up with the 'bush' is proof of 'how much he loves her.'

After Gwyneth's vaginal steam post, Dr. Jen Gunter, a board certified OB/GYN and expert in vulvovaginal disorders, wrote about the services at Tikkun on her website.

'Steam is probably not good for your vagina. Herbal steam is no better and quite possibly worse,' she said.

'Mugwort or wormwood or whatever when steamed, either vaginally or on the vulva, can't possibly balance any reproductive hormones, regulate your menstrual cycle, treat depression, or cure infertility.'

Gunter then cautioned that the Iron Man star's advice about cleansing the uterus is not a good idea.

'Steam isn't going to get into your uterus from your vagina unless you are using an attachment with some kind of pressure and MOST DEFINITELY NEVER EVER DO THAT,' the doctor warned.

Paltrow has just come off promoting her film Mortdecai with Johnny Depp, Ewan McGregor and Olivia Munn. The comedy had an impressive opening weekend in the US, bringing in just over $4m.
