About the Ritual

The Classic Turkish Bath Ritual

Peeling and foam massage is the traditional Turkish bath experience in its most complete form. First, the warmth of the hammam opens your pores and softens your skin. Then your attendant uses a kese, a textured exfoliating mitt, to gently scrub away dead skin from head to toe.

The ritual continues with a cloud of soft, fragrant foam and a soothing massage, before warm water rinses wash everything away. It is the best way to discover the hammam if you visit only once.

Benefits of Peeling & Foam

  • Deep Exfoliation

    The kese lifts away dead skin far more effectively than at home.

  • Silky, Renewed Skin

    Leaves your skin noticeably smoother, softer and brighter.

  • The Full Hammam Experience

    Warmth, kese and foam: every step of the traditional ritual.

  • Relaxed Body & Mind

    Heat and gentle massage leave you calm, light and refreshed.

Peeling & Foam Massage FAQ

How is it different from the Foam Massage?

Does the kese peeling hurt?

It feels firm and invigorating but should not be painful. Let your attendant know if you would like a gentler touch at any time.

Is there anything I should avoid before my visit?

For the most comfortable experience, avoid shaving or waxing right before your visit and let us know if you have sunburn, sensitive skin or any skin condition.
