Relaxing in a hammam: everything you need to know
A moment in the hammam is a welcome interlude of well-being and relaxation! Also known as a steam bath, it's the perfect place for friends to unwind and have a good time. An ideal activity for an EVG or EVJF, the hammam is often included in complete spa packages combining hammam, sauna, massages and whirlpool baths for the ultimate relaxing and tranquil experience!
What is a hammam?
The hammam is an ancient, traditional facility with Roman origins. Highly developed in the Ottoman Empire, the hammam is also known as a Turkish bath today. The hammam was a well-known and much-appreciated public place of hygiene.
A typical hammam session is as follows:
- Before entering the hammam, rinse off with lukewarm water.
- Take a seat in the hammam. The higher you sit, the hotter it gets. Sit still for a few moments and enjoy the warmth. The steam envelops you. Enjoy the scent of essential oils (orange blossom, pine, etc.).
- While you're in the hammam, you can also exfoliate your skin. The heat softens the skin and opens the pores, making it the ideal time to exfoliate.
- A hammam session lasts no more than 10 to 15 minutes. Finish off with a quick, cool shower.
The benefits of a hammam session
The traditional Moroccan steam bath or hammam provides numerous benefits for both body and mind.
With its heat and humidity (the humidity level in a hammam is between 90% and 100%), the hammam is an authentic skin treatment. Scrubbing, ideally performed during the hammam, removes dead skin cells and makes the skin much softer. Scrubs also help combat ingrown hairs.
The hammam is also an ideal time to relax and let go. Relaxation, vitality, the elimination of stress and all the little worries of everyday life - the hammam does a world of good.
Combined with other balneotherapy treatments (sauna, treatments, massages, whirlpool baths), the hammam is truly a unique moment of relaxation.
