The
Russian/Turkish Bath Experience
A
centuries-old tradition, Russian and Turkish Baths promote health and
wellness through hot and cold bathing.
First,
the safe, intense heat of the Russian and Turkish Bath or steam room relaxes
your mind while activating your body. An attendant douses large heated
rocks with water to produce more progressive heat and steam, opening your
pores. In Turkish Baths, you might even pour cool water on yourself to
intensify the experience. Add to these holistic methods the soft warm
whisks of oak, birch or eucalyptus leaves gently brushed over your body.
Your skin glows as this light exfoliation draws out toxins and conditions
the skin.
After
heating
the body, plunging in the cooling pool directs blood flow back inward
while providing the skin some relief. Moving back and forth from heat
to cool activates the blood and enhances body wellness. In fact, Russian/Turkish
Baths provide many health benefits. The experience
leaves the body, mind and spirit healthy, relaxed and rejuvenated. |
