To enjoy the benefits of a hammam, we will stay there for a minimum of 1 hour minutes and a maximum of 2 hours, rest and lie on the floor or on the benches. During this time, a Kessala (name of the women practicing the scrubs in the hammams), can apply natural moroccan black soap on your whole body. Then, after a pause of about fifteen minutes where rest is required, the Kessala will rinse the black soap, using a Kessa glove, before rubbing your body to remove impurities.
Thanks to these different steps, it is a real deep exfoliation which, for novices, is sometimes incredible as the dead skin comes off and is unclogged. After a thorough rinse, the Moroccan Rhassoul clay is used on the body and hair. Excellent washing product, Rhassoul will definitely wash the body and make it soft and supple.
After these treatments, a nourishing massage nourishes the skin and the little extra that remains is the mint tea to finish this moment of incomparable tranquility.
