HAMMAM SESSION + ORIENTAL EXFOLIATION
The hammam offers a holistic well-being experience. Furthermore, it provides multiple benefits for the body and mind.
Integral relaxation: Firstly, the hammam vapors calm the mind and deeply relax the muscles. Therefore, they help relieve accumulated tension. Additionally, this process makes the hammam the perfect ally before a subsequent massage, as it facilitates the elimination of knots and body contractures.
Respiratory decongestion: On the other hand, the warm and humid vapors help clear the airways. In this way, they provide a feeling of freshness and facilitate breathing.
Skin purification: Likewise, the moist heat dilates the skin’s pores and promotes deep cleansing. Afterwards, the oriental exfoliation removes impurities and dead cells, leaving the skin smoother, more luminous, and radiant for days. Furthermore, this process facilitates subsequent skin hydration.
Total ritual time: approx. 80 min.
The total time for the Basic Hammam Ritual is approximately 80 minutes. However, it may vary slightly depending on the time you spend in the relaxation room, which is the final stage of the ritual.
Therefore, the indicated time should be understood as an indicative reference. Furthermore, it represents the timeframe we recommend allowing between your arrival and departure to enjoy the experience with total peace of mind.
Possible combinations
The Basic Hammam Ritual constitutes the ideal preparation before a subsequent massage or any body treatment or facial treatment. Thanks to the moist heat, muscles relax, pores dilate, and the skin is cleared of impurities.
In this way, the cabin treatment is experienced in a more pleasant and complete manner. Additionally, the body is better prepared to receive the benefits of the chosen massage or care.
You can also enjoy this ritual on its own, without the need to add additional treatments.

HAMMAM SESSION
Immerse yourself in the warm atmosphere of the hammam for 40-45 minutes. Alternate between areas of different temperatures, cooling off periodically in the pool or with the elegant metal bowls. Feel your pores open, muscle tension dissipate, and your breathing become freer.
ORIENTAL EXFOLIATION
Lie back on the marble bench and experience a traditional oriental exfoliation. Black Soap, rich in nourishing properties, will prepare your skin. Then, with the kessa glove, we will gently remove dead cells, leaving your skin renewed and stimulating circulation.
If the Basic Ritual is not followed by a subsequent treatment, we will conclude by applying a body milk, taking advantage of your still-open pores for optimal hydration. – Complimentary glove –
RELAXATION ROOM
After your ritual, visit our relaxation room. Among comfortable cushions and by candlelight, enjoy an invigorating mint tea and a delicious Arabic sweet. The perfect finishing touch.
You may then return to our changing room to change. To maximize the benefits of the treatment, we recommend postponing your shower so that your skin fully absorbs the hydration received.
The Benefits of the Hammam
The numerous benefits of the hammam are surprising and have been known since antiquity throughout the East. As early as the Roman Empire, the body was purified through this aromatic humid heat experience, known as thermal baths.
In the Arab world, the Hammam, or Turkish baths, are integrated into daily life as a privileged social meeting point and a prelude to sacred spaces. The hammam experience is lived as a true body purification ceremony and offers interesting therapeutic benefits; it is not in vain that it is known in the East as “the silent doctor”:
– The suspended steam of the Turkish baths opens the skin’s pores, facilitating the expulsion of toxins and preparing it for a body or facial skin purification treatment.
– Breathing in this environment, scented with eucalyptus and mint essential oil, hydrates the respiratory tract and better oxygenates the entire body.
– The humid heat causes increased blood flow and accelerates metabolic functions, leading to a pleasant feeling of well-being. It will be easier to fall asleep that night.
– The relaxation of muscles, generally tense and contracted, is one of the most significant effects produced by the heat of the hammam and reaches an optimal point if complemented with a subsequent massage.
– On a mental level, the feeling of introspection, the encounter with oneself and one’s own body, helps us regain balance in a world that demands constant dynamism and adaptability. Sharing the experience with loved ones also adds a social dimension, allowing relationships to flow and generating a good amount of endorphins.
