Moroccan Hammam in London at Hammam Spa London
A Moroccan hammam starts with warmth. There’s time to settle into the steam before the black soap cleanse and body scrub. At Hammam Spa London in East Dulwich, our Basic Moroccan Package costs £60 and lasts 45 minutes. It includes the traditional cleanse and scrub, a hair wash and time to enjoy Moroccan tea in our relaxation room. Hammam Spa London
What is a Moroccan hammam?
In Morocco, a hammam is a bathhouse where people go to wash, scrub and spend time together. Black soap, often called savon beldi, and a textured exfoliating mitt known as a kessa are two familiar parts of the tradition. The soap is used to cleanse the skin before the scrub removes dead skin cells from the surface.
What to expect at our Moroccan hammam in East Dulwich
Herbal steam and a black soap cleanse
Your visit begins with time in the warmth of the hammam. The Basic Moroccan Package combines herbal steam with a cleanse using organic black soap. It’s a chance to slow down before the therapist begins the scrub. Hammam Spa London
A traditional body scrub
The scrub is the part most first-time guests are curious about. A textured mitt is worked over the skin to exfoliate it. If you prefer lighter pressure, let your therapist know. You can also tell our team about any skin sensitivities or product allergies before you book so we can explain what we use. Hammam Spa London
A hair wash and Moroccan tea
The package includes a shampoo and hair wash. Afterwards, you can sit down with a cup of Moroccan tea in our relaxation room. If you’re planning something for later that day, leave yourself a little time to enjoy the tea before heading out. Hammam Spa London
