Skin is your body´s largest organ and is the one that suffers the contact with the world the most. It is a very common thing to overlook this and not taking proper care of our own skin. That is exactly why a Moroccan bath is what you need in order to revert that situation. This ancient technique is completely dedicated to the well fare of your skin. It does so by liberating toxins, regulating temperature and the fluid balance. Read on and find out which is the best Moroccan bath center in Dubai.
What is a Moroccan Bath?
A
Moroccan bath is an ancient tradition that started in that country,
Morocco, but has since spread throughout Europe and the world. Since
its creation, it has embraced technology improvements in such a way
that it has not only enhanced its efficiency in results, but also in
relaxation.
A
Moroccan bath is a cleansing experience that utilizes steam and
ancient Moroccan exfoliating techniques to remove all toxins from
your body. These techniques have been used and perfected by locals
for centuries and are still being used today. Moroccans have these
kinds of baths as often as they can, which is usually once a week.
Moroccan bath is also known as Hammam bath and, according to recent studies it might have healthy results beyond the relaxation and are related to the liberation of potentially harmful toxins. If these are not removed from your skin, they might cause severe damage to pores. Releasing toxins through your skin is healthy by itself because the ones that stay inside can become potentially dangerous to your organism.
What to Expect in a Moroccan Bath?
The
Moroccan bath experience is quite unique and is done through three
simple steps. It has a deeply relaxing effect on people and it is
guaranteed that once you try it, you will become a fan
instantaneously.
When
you arrive to the Moroccan bath facility, you will be given a fine
robe made of silk or any derivate to put over your underwear. There
are places that sell disposable underwear to the clients and you can
take that option or you can just bring an extra pair of your own.
Once you are ready, a specialist will lead the way and show you your private steam room. The entire process takes about one hour. During that hour, these are the three steps that you will go through: The Rinsing Ritual The Rinsing Ritual
1.The Rinsing Ritual
This
is the first part of the Moroccan bath and can very well be
considered the preparation for it. You will be taken to a hot shower
and given a true black Moroccan soap that has olive oil among many
other ingredients and will help the first stage of cleansing and
nourishing your skin. The interaction of this specific soap with the
warmth of the water will make your muscles, mind and skin ease and
relax.
In
this first step, you are requested to apply the black soap to your
skin and hair alike in an effort to clean and relax your entire body.
Once you are done, you are ready for step number two, the steam.

1.The Steam
Once
you are inside your private steam room (it might or might not be the
same room as the rinsing ritual), you will find a huge stone or
concrete piece in the center. You have to either sit down or lie on
your back over it. Don´t worry, it is a warmed piece, you won´t
feel cold at all.
This
is the point in the massage session in which that black soap works
its wonder and those pores open widely to release all toxins
accumulated in the past time. Especially if you live in a city with a
big smog condensation or chemicals in the air, those can really pile
up in your skin. With the hot steam of water pouring in, you will
feel something close to your skin “breathing” through the open
pores. It is a great process that will moisturize your skin deeply
and also relax your muscles, increase blood circulation and relieve
the pain.
Additionally, your hair will get a great organic treatment and look better than ever. Once the steam part is done, then you are ready for part three: exfoliating
1.The Exfoliating
This
is most people´s favorite part of the Moroccan bath, the part of the
rubbing and scrubbing. Once you are done with the steam relaxation, a
therapist will exfoliate your skin. Most therapists do it with
mittens vigorously throughout your body. All the dirt and clogging
you might have in your skin will be gone from the fingers of these
specialists.
This
rubbing will also improve your skin´s tone and firmness while
stimulating the production of collagen creating an extended-youth
kind of effect. You will not only feel better after stage three of
the Moroccan bath, you will also look much better.
After
stage three is done, it is time for a mildly cold to cold water
shower to close the pores and get them ready to face reality once
again. By this moment you will be invigorated, energized and fresh as
a leaf of lettuce.
Optional – A Massage Session
Some people like booking an extra session of massage after going through the experience of Moroccan bath to potentiate the effects on them and make them last much longer. Our suggestion is to choose a spa that can fit both in one visit.
