Our skin is our calling card, it’s what separates us from the outside world. It is the outer manifestation of our inner wellbeing, revealing stress, tiredness, an unbalanced diet and the impact smog and pollution have on us. Taking care of it doesn’t just mean keeping it looking beautiful; we need to ensure our skin - our body’s natural protective barrier - works properly.
This is where a sauna or Hammamcan really help: while they are a great way of relaxing, they can also do wonders for our health, helping our body detox and cleansing our skin deep down.
The secret behind the beneficial effects of a sauna and Turkish bath is simple yet effective: heat.
The high temperature in a sauna stimulates deep sweating, triggering a natural process by which the body gets rid of impurities, toxins and heavy metals. According to research published in the Journal of Applied Physiology, sweating not only helps regulate body temperature, it is also a natural way of cleansing the organism.
In a Turkish bath, on the other hand, heat is combined with humidity: steam envelops the body, dilates the pores and promotes deeper skin cleansing. The epidermis gets rid of dead cells and is able to breathe again. Its effects are felt deep down, restoring tone, elasticity and hydration.
The benefits offered by saunas and Hammams are not limited to cleansing. Alternating heat and cold stimulates the skin’s microcirculation, carrying more oxygen and nutrients to cells. Dermatological studies have shown this promotes cell regeneration and helps fight the signs of ageing, leaving skin more radiant and firmer. Little wonder, therefore, that these heat treatments are considered the ideal complement to anti-age and preventative regimens.
Hydration plays a key part in all this: when combined with a sauna or Hammam, it prolongs their benefits and keeps skin feeling soft and supple. This wellness ritual therefore becomes an important part of your daily skincare routine.
Skin looks more radiant, toned and hydrated. When combined with a proper hydration regime, the heat treatment boosts its effect, so skin not only looks more beautiful but is more protected and healthy.
