Turkish massage, also known as Turkish bath massage or Hamam massage, is a traditional therapeutic practice rooted in the rich cultural heritage of Turkey. Drawing inspiration from the ancient Turkish bathhouses, or "hamams," this massage style combines elements of deep tissue massage, exfoliation, and a unique bathing ritual.

The Turkish massage experience typically begins with a session in a steamy hammam, where the body is heated and pores are opened, preparing the skin for exfoliation. A skilled therapist then uses a combination of techniques, including kneading, stretching, and circular motions, to release tension and promote relaxation. The massage often incorporates aromatic oils, adding a sensory element to the treatment.
