- Hot Baths

- Turkish Baths The relaxing Turkish Baths experience will leave you refreshed and invigorated as the gentle moist heat relaxes your body and soothes your nerves. With a choice of three hot rooms, a steam room, relaxation area and cold plunge pool the Turkish Baths provide the ultimate relaxation therapy. To make the most of this experience have a brisk shower before visiting the steam room where the high humidity will open pores and penetrate the respiratory system and ease tense muscles before you take a bracing dip in the plunge pool. Then work your way through three hot chambers; Tepidarium (warm), Calidarium (hot) and Laconium (hottest) allowing the warmth to continue its therapeutic effect on the muscles and skin. Repeat the cycle as often as you wish before cooling down in the Frigidarium.
