hamam
The hamam at Ten Spa reawakens the lost cleansing and rejuvenating ritual of the ancient Ottoman Empire.
Hamam Rituals
Expert attendants, skilled in the ancient art of the hamam, perform our rituals. Central to social life in the Ottoman Empire, the hamam was more than a bath; it was a place of renewal for both body and spirit. Regular visits supported physical and spiritual purification, enhancing blood circulation, detoxifying the body, and boosting the immune system.
