Hammam: a Ritual of Beauty, Cleansing, and Deep Relaxation

What is Hammam: a Beautifying Ritual for all the Senses

Hammam, also known as Turkish bath, is more than just wellness. It is a ritual of beauty and cleansing that awakens the body, cleanses the mind, and leaves the skin as soft as after a vacation.

Here, warmth, steam, and the scent of essential oils combine into a slow rhythm that washes away tension and stress. This traditional ritual originating from the Orient combines the best of wellness, aromatherapy, and beautifying treatments.

At Eden’s Garden Prague, we have transformed the hammam into a luxurious spa experience, where touch becomes an instrument of regeneration.

The Origin of Hammam – from Ancient Baths to Modern Wellness

The word “hammam” means to warm up in Arabic. And warmth is the basis of everything – it helps to open pores, relax muscles, and restore the natural circulation of energy. From the ancient baths of ancient Greece, the ritual moved to Turkey and Arab countries, where it became a symbol of beauty, purity, and social gathering. Today, hammam is part of modern wellness procedures around the world, and at Eden’s Garden you can experience it in its purest form.

How Hammam Works at Eden’S Garden

Each step of the ritual has its purpose. It is not a quick procedure, but a slow, sensory experience that cleanses, nourishes, and beautifies.

• Warming in a steam bath – A pleasant temperature and steam open pores, relax muscles, and prepare the skin for peeling.
• Cleansing peeling (kese) – A special peeling glove gently removes dead cells. The skin brightens, softens and gains a natural shine, an effect like after a luxurious beautifying treatment.
• Soap massage – A fluffy foam is created from olive or black soap, which covers the whole body. The therapist rhythmically works it into the skin and uses smooth movements to release tension, improve blood circulation and bring a feeling of lightness.
• Rinsing and relaxation – Warm water washes away foam and stress. This is followed by a short aroma massage with natural oil, which soothes the body and mind.

Effects of Hammam – more than a Wellness Procedure

Hammam combines warmth, steam, scent and touch, working together on all the senses.
It is a restart of body and soul, which connects beauty with regeneration.

Main Benefits of Hammam:

• Smoothes and softens the skin,
• cleans pores and stimulates blood circulation,

“After hammam, you feel lighter, calmer and in deeper balance – as if you have taken a breath again.”
– Eden’s Garden therapists

Why Hammam at Eden’S Garden

At Eden’s Garden Prague, clients are cared for by more than 50 certified therapists from Asia, who combine authentic Eastern techniques with a modern approach to wellness.

Each hammam is conducted slowly and with respect for the body – after all, it is a ritual, not a performance.

We use natural ingredients – olive and black soap, honey, rose or eucalyptus. The entire space is filled with the warm light of candles, the scent of steam and quiet music that soothes the mind and breath. We believe that beauty and peace come from within and hammam is the way to reawaken them.
