Is it Haman, hammam, Turkish bath or steam room?
The names hammam, Turkish bath and steam room are often used interchangeably, but actually they mean the same thing. In a steam cabin, as the word itself says, there is a lot of steam. A steam bath does wonders for the body and mind after just ten minutes.
The operation of a hammam
In the hammam or Turkish bath, steam is created. The steam is created by means of a steam generator.
The steam cabin is completely filled with very humid warm air. To enjoy the hamam even more, you can add an aroma.
Because it is very humid in the hammam, you do not need to bring a towel inside. It is best to enter the steam room naked or with as few clothes as possible. Before sitting or lying down in the hammam, it is advisable to rinse the seat with water and use a squeegee to remove the water.
Afterwards, it is best to take a cold to lukewarm shower and it is very important that you let your body rest (min. 15 minutes).
Why use a hammam?
There are numerous advantages to using a hammam. We, at Stesha Wellness, have selected the most important benefits for you.
- The pores are deeply cleansed and the skin feels softer afterwards
- The heat makes you sweat, which removes waste products from your body
- The warmth of the hammam has a positive effect on the joints, muscles and blood circulation
- The moist air has a healing effect on the mucous membranes. This makes it beneficial for people who suffer from respiratory infections or asthma to visit the infra-red cabin regularly.
- The hammam or steam bath is not as hot as the sauna. But the humid air means there are plenty of benefits.
A hammam in your home?
Yes, it is possible! You can enjoy your own hammam or steam bath at home. It is possible to install a hammam yourself, but you do need to have some prior knowledge of how to do it.
If a few important points are not taken into account, the consequences can be serious. These consequences range from moisture problems to mould.
