Moroccan Bath Benefits

What is a Moroccan Bath?

Introduction & History

The Moroccan Bath, or Hammam Maghribi, is a time-honored ritual of cleansing, healing, and rejuvenation that dates back to the Roman and Ottoman empires. Born in the heart of North Africa, this sacred practice became an integral part of daily and spiritual life across the Arab world. Rooted in ancient traditions, the Moroccan Bath was not just about hygiene—it was about purification of the body, mind, and soul.

Public hammams (bathing houses) were once gathering spaces for families and communities. Women would bathe and socialize together in a deeply cultural and spiritual setting. Over time, these rituals evolved into modern spa treatments while retaining their ancient roots.

At Third Eye Spa, we bring you an authentic Moroccan Bath experience, blending tradition with luxury to offer a deep cleansing and deeply restorative journey for your body and spirit.

The Process (Step-by-Step Experience at Third Eye Spa)

Immerse yourself in a deeply restorative ritual that follows a structured yet soothing process:

Steam Room Session

Begin with 15–20 minutes of gentle steam to open your pores and relax your muscles. The warmth prepares your skin for deep exfoliation and releases toxins.

Application of Moroccan Black Soap

A rich, natural soap made from black olives is applied to your skin. This helps soften the skin, break down impurities, and nourish it with natural Vitamin E.

Full-Body Exfoliation with Kessa Mitt

A skilled therapist uses a traditional exfoliating glove (kessa) to scrub away dead skin cells, unclog pores, and smooth the skin’s surface—revealing fresh, glowing skin beneath.

Thorough Rinsing & Cleansing

Warm water is used to gently wash away the exfoliated skin and impurities, leaving your body refreshed and renewed

Optional Enhancements (Based on your package)

○ Ghassoul Clay Mask: Mineral-rich clay from Moroccan Atlas Mountains to purify and tone the skin.
○ Argan Oil Massage: Nourishing and deeply moisturizing treatment using cold-pressed argan oil.
○ Hair Wash & Mask: Natural hair treatments to complement your bath.

Cool Down & Rehydration

Finish with a refreshing rinse, cool towel, and calming break with herbal tea or infused water.
