The art of oriental relaxation with aroma oils
Turkish hamam differs from traditional baths and Finnish saunas even externally. It does not use wood, which absorbs moisture, but only ceramic tiles or natural marble to keep the air as moist as possible. If you don’t like high temperatures, the Turkish hammam is perfect for you.
Roman thermae are the very first steam baths in world history. Famous scientists and politicians restored vitality, treated and relaxed in Roman thermae. This is a unique steam room, which traditionally maintains almost one hundred percent humidity level. Baths gained special love and popularity in ancient Rome, where there was a cult of baths. Even when greeting each other, the Romans would ask: “How are you sweating?
Roman thermae is better tolerated and generally more comfortable than a Finnish sauna or traditional sauna. In Roman Thermae, the temperature is set at up to 50 degrees and maintains a high level of humidity – up to 90 percent. This allows the skin to purify itself and you to truly relax.
In Roman thermae, a special combination of humidity and temperature is achieved. That is why the microclimate of the steam room is ideal for relaxation and recovery. To enhance the effect, Ark SPA Palace fills the room with aroma oils that have a favorable effect on the body.
The legendary architect Sinan, who lived to be 100 years old, claimed that the secret of his health was regular visits to the hamam. Great doctors Avicenna and Hippocrates also considered hamam a source of health, where the body warming is soft and uniform, achieved due to the temperature of 35-55 degrees and high humidity. Hamam is not just a bath, but a real tool for health promotion and disease prevention.
Turkish massage combines techniques from different cultures, enhancing their effectiveness in the hammam environment. Warmed skin absorbs aromatic oils better, which makes the massage even more beneficial. The visit ends with a traditional tea party and a feeling of complete bliss.
Ark SPA Palace follows Turkish customs and offers its visitors to undergo an oriental ritual. The bathing procedure consists of warming up the body, peeling with a stiff mitt, soaping, vigorous massage, dousing with water and relaxation.
