Its origins are ancient: the Egyptians had discovered the beneficial effects of steam, followed by the Greeks and Romans. According to these people, a steam bath reinvigorated and regenerated not only the body but also the spirit. After the fall of the Roman Empire, the tradition of the steam bath was taken by the Arabs with the baths called "hammam" (from "warm").
The hammam is composed essentially of three rooms (as opposed to the Roman baths that were tepidarium, steam bath and finally laconicum, the final room warmer, heated with dry air at high temperature, then after cleaning the body and massage The frigidarium, a pool of water cold) in these rooms Arabs are washed, a room is very hot (Harar), and the last one is warm and fresh, and it usually starts from the room warmer. At the end of the cycle can have a massage purifying born so turkish bath, which takes its name from the Eastern tradition of making a steam by implementing a real rite of cleansing the body.
