THE TURKISH BATH - CALIDARIUM

The CALIDARIUM of the wellbeing centre Gaarten SPA belongs to the old tradition of purifying bath from which the sauna is descended. It requests to stay in a hot/damp environment (40°/60°) usually perfumed with essential oils (mint, eucalypt…). The humidity gets to 90/95%. The staying inside the sauna lasts for about 30-35 minutes, and you have to alternate it with cold shower to stimulate and oxygenate the circulation. This treatment is suggested to cure rheumatism and articular pains, muscle tensions and for the inflammations of the respiratory tract.
