Sanhu House Featured in Brentwood Magazine: Redefining Postpartum Care in Los Angeles
At Sanhu House, we believe postpartum should be a time of true healing — not just survival. We’re honored that Brentwood Magazine recently featured our story and mission, recognizing the importance of reimagining postpartum care for families in Los Angeles and beyond.
Revolutionizing Postpartum Recovery in Los Angeles
Founded in Santa Monica, Sanhu House draws inspiration from traditional Korean postpartum care practices, known as sanhujori, and blends them with modern, evidence-based methods. Our goal is simple but powerful: to create an environment where mothers aren’t just recovering physically, but healing emotionally and mentally too.
As Brentwood Magazine highlighted, Sanhu House offers a sanctuary for new mothers — whether they choose to heal in our luxury postpartum retreat overlooking the Pacific Ocean or through our in-home care services across Los Angeles.
In a city where postpartum support is often overlooked, we're proud to be leading the way in making expert postpartum care more accessible, personal, and nurturing.
Personalized, Luxury Postpartum Support
Our offerings include:
Luxury Postpartum Retreat in Santa Monica: Private suites, daily doula support, healing meals, lactation consultation, and holistic therapies such as massage, Reiki, and sound baths.
Sanhu House at Home: Flexible postpartum concierge services brought directly into the home, providing 8–12 hours of daily care, healing meals, equipment, and postpartum education.
Day of Sanhu: A special one-day immersive experience featuring customized doula care, massage services, and lactation support.
From sitz baths and sound therapy to newborn care coordination and emotional wellness support, every element of Sanhu House is designed to promote full-body recovery during the fourth trimester.
Bridging Cultural Traditions and Modern Postnatal Wellness
Founder Julia Grace Kim was inspired to create Sanhu House after experiencing the lack of postpartum resources firsthand. Growing up, she witnessed the importance of structured recovery through Korean postpartum centers — a sharp contrast to the "figure it out yourself" model so common in the U.S.
Our services are built on the belief that every mother deserves structured support after birth — not just physical recovery, but emotional restoration, nourishing meals, and continuous care.
As featured in Brentwood Magazine, Sanhu House is filling a critical gap in maternal health care, offering a deeply-needed bridge between ancient healing practices and today’s evolving needs.
Serving Families Across Los Angeles and Beyond
We are proud to support new mothers not just in Santa Monica, but across Los Angeles — meeting families wherever they are on their recovery journey.
Whether you are seeking a serene, hotel-style postpartum retreat or personalized in-home support, Sanhu House is here to bring expert postpartum care, emotional healing, and gentle recovery into your life.
