About
The Ruşur Hammam combines the traditional Turkish hammam ritual with a cleanse using ruşur stone. Ruşur stone is a natural stone used in skin care for centuries in the Iranian hammam tradition; applied to wet skin, it gently clears away dead cells and helps the skin feel smoother. Combined with warm marble and rich foam, the ritual both cleanses and relaxes the body in 30 minutes.
How the ritual unfolds
- Navel stone: As you rest on the heated marble, the warmth prepares your skin for cleansing.
- Ruşur stone cleanse: The ruşur stone is applied to wet skin to gently clear away dead cells.
- Foam massage: Rich soap foam is spread over your body and applied with a gentle massage.
- Rinse: The ritual ends with a rinse in warm water.
The ritual lasts 30 minutes and is available at our Folkart Towers branch in Izmir.
Who is it for?
It suits anyone who wants to experience the traditional hammam with a different touch, those who want a gentle cleanse for their skin and guests who want to feel refreshed in a short time.
