Hydrotherapy + massage
The comprehensive Hammam experience will consist of 3 sessions at the Arab baths of Hammam Al Ándalus, Granada -Spain- (once every two weeks). Each session will involve a thermal circuit lasting approximately 75 minutes, following the institution's guidelines, inviting women to explore the warm, hot, and cold water baths, as well as the steam room. The thermal circuit will be complemented by a 15-minute relaxing massage using essential oils. During the final session, massage will be preceeded by a traditional Kessa treatment on a hot stone bed. During sessions, women will be involved in a multisensory experience, including aromatherapy and where they will also have the opportunity to sipping on mint tea and relax on a building all decorated in resplendent Arabian décor. One member of the research team will be responsible for coordinating the sessions in collaboration with the Al Ándalus institution, subject to their availability.
