The Arabic massage tradition
Massage has long been part of bathhouse culture across the Middle East and North Africa. Arabic massage draws on that tradition with firm, rhythmic kneading, broad palm pressure and stretches, usually with warm scented oil. It is grounding and restorative, designed to relax the whole body after the heat of the hammam.
