In a recent incident that has captured the attention of social media and mainstream media alike, a hipster customer sparked an internet uproar by claiming that they contracted a urinary tract infection (UTI) after visiting Bathhouse, a trendy spa located in the hip Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn. The accusation quickly gained traction online, as numerous influencers joined in, sharing similar sentiments about their experiences at the dimly lit retreat.

However, in a twist of fate, Bathhouse's legal counsel, Adam P. Gilbert, Esq., from the law firm Nixon Peabody LLP, took it upon himself to investigate the claims. His findings led to a rather surprising conclusion: it was more plausible that the UTI was a result of the complainant's sexual activities rather than the spa's services. In a letter addressed to the aggrieved customer, Gilbert suggested, with a touch of humor and professionalism, that the infection likely stemmed from “other activities” as indicated in their own social media posts.

The controversy erupted last month when a series of influencers and other online commenters began sharing their negative experiences regarding Bathhouse. These experiences were highlighted by publications such as New York Magazine's Curbed blog and the New York Post. Bathhouse has vehemently denied all allegations, asserting that it has undergone multiple inspections by the New York City Department of Health (NYCDOH), all of which reported no irregularities in its operations.

In response to the wave of accusations, Bathhouse took a proactive stance. The spa issued legal letters to several individuals who had posted incendiary comments online, demanding the removal of their posts and warning of potential legal action if they failed to comply. Among these communications, one letter stood out for its candid and almost comical tone.

In his correspondence with the customer, Gilbert pointed out a rather eyebrow-raising detail: the same social media account that complained about the UTI was also used to seek advice on a complicated sexual relationship, including some rather graphic descriptions of intimate encounters. As Gilbert eloquently noted in his letter, “The likelihood that anyone developed a urinary tract infection from Bathhouse is virtually zero. The facility operates a state-of-the-art system that surpasses the requirements set forth by the NYCDOH.” He further emphasized that the customer's own social media posts indicated behaviors that significantly heighten the risk of contracting a UTI due to sexual activity, rather than from a visit to the spa.

This witty and slightly embarrassing revelation not only addresses the accusations but also highlights the complexities of social media interactions and the potential consequences of public claims. Bathhouse continues to uphold its reputation while navigating the turbulent waters of online allegations and the legal implications that come with them.
