Hammam
“Sanitus Per aquam" is the Latin formula which means health end well-being through water.
Water, air and plants are vital, natural elements. In the hammam and balneotherapy,
they combine their beneficial effects: calming the mind, toning up the body,
draining out toxins, regenerating tissues…
The heat allows the muscles to relax and gives the body a true sense of well-being.

" “When one steps out of a steam room, having been enveloped in a warm damp mist,
the chest dilates and one breathes voluptuously …revitalized,
one has a sense of
universal well-being... a suppleness and lightness never before experienced.
It is though one has just been born”.
