Origin of Hamam Therapy
Hamam Therapy finds its roots in ancient bathing customs, notably in Turkish and Roman traditions. Originating in communal spaces known as Hamams, this therapy integrates warm water, steam, and massage techniques for both physical and spiritual well-being. Evolving over centuries, it has become a modern spa practice, offering a luxurious and rejuvenating experience that honours the enduring traditions of communal well-being.
Hamam at Zyur Thai Spa is almost equivalent to authentic Turkish Hamam.
Process of Hamam Therapy
Hamam therapy is done in a steam chamber, where the steam keeps running throughout the therapy.
- You need to lie on a hot stone bed, which is heated by a conduit of steam below the stone.
- The therapy starts with rinsing the body with hot and cold running water, once a thorough rinsing is done the therapist will squeeze soap foam into the body covering the entire body with foam, and then the therapist will massage your body with the soap foam, after the massage is done then again the body is rinsed with hot and cold running water.
- The therapist will then do the scrub on the entire body you can select from a range of water-based body scrubs, like jasmine, sandalwood, grape wine, neem tulsi, etc.
- After the scrub, the therapist will rinse you again to complete the process with Hamam.
Hamam is extremely detoxifying because of the heat involved in the therapy, pain relieving, increases Blood circulation, strengthens the nerve, cleanses the skin, unclogs the pores, etc.
