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.
