The Hammam is said to be a method of physical cleansing and relaxation. We found ourselves in one of the most beautiful hammams in Athens and enjoyed moments of absolute relaxation and rejuvenation.
From the basic Hammam Bath services, we chose and singled out Ali-Mama Hammam, the ultimate experience.
What you feel as soon as you enter is the mental euphoria, the energy of the place which is extremely relaxing combined with the calm and kind staff. After giving you the appropriate instructions, the staff will accompany you to the changing room where you will change to get ready for the hammam.
The process starts with a refreshing steam bath for about 30 minutes. The steam bath has many advantages, it strengthens the immune system, improves metabolism and muscle elasticity. The pores are opened and cleansed.
Then you will enjoy a deep peeling with a disposable glove the ketche (a kind of woolen cloth) from the masseur. This is followed by a soothing massage all over the body, with natural olive soap foam. The service ends with a head wash and massage.
At the end of the service you can relax and enjoy in the sitting area of the Hammam Baths tea (green or black or hibiscus tea) and you will taste their traditional Turkish delights.
