Turkish bath

"I went to the ones in Harrogate they are great but get very hot and the ice water is a shock "
Oh that might not be for us then it would trigger Mr Ns asthma. I use a sauna regularly but realise it isn't the same thing. |

"Has anyone been to one? What's it like and do you recommend it?
Yes. In Turkey,many years ago. Definitely recommend "
I might have to go on my own if cold water is involved or I might just chicken out  |

I always make a point of going to one every time I visit Turkey. You honestly feel so invigorated afterwards. Little bit of advice if you do go to one in Turkey, try and go near the beginning of your holiday as being scrubbed with the lofa sponge could take your nice tan away |

Good advice. I'm not 100% sure it's for me to be honest |

"There's one near me. I've not been in but in an area where these type of salon places go bust all the time, it seems to have been doing well for the several years it's been there."
People do seem to enjoy them. |

Reading the descriptions, a lot of it I think I could mock up with a sauna, shower, and exfoliating mitt. I don't think it's for me but it must be doing something right. |

I use a sauna regularly but I don't go straight to a cold shower, I cool down naturally before that. It's just I have an opportunity coming up to go to a Turkish bath and I'm not sure. However nothing ventured  |

Oh sure! I've had a couple of not-like-that facials and while I've concluded that I can get much better results at home spending a lot less money (and the experience itself isn't worth the money), it was something to try, particularly when my skin was more troublesome. |

"Very thorough, but came out glowing and happy x I’d recommend
 I'm being swayed
What’s stopping you? You smell divine afterwards and err maybe a tad horny...  "
The hot/cold contrast but if there are other benefits it might be worth it |

"Absolutely fabulous unfortunately not many left nowadays
What's involved?
A Turk.
A bath.
Some towels.
Few gallons of water and some soap.
Actually, it's only some of the above....
"
yeah but which ones. If the towels are missing I'm in trouble |

I loved my turkish bath.
They had bubbles in a pillow case type thing and whipped it all over my body, they scrubbed me down and rinsed me off then I had a full body massage.
Definitely go again |

"Has anyone been to one? What's it like and do you recommend it?"
Went to one in Turkey(didn't want to but it's a long story) !!
Fantastic building with amazing architecture which was a plus point.
Just remember no pain no gain !! 
And despite you showering twice a day at home etc etc and being a clean person you'll be amazed at the "dirt" the process removes from deep within your skin pores. |

"I've had one in Turkey and it was really good! I don't remember any coldness though. I felt amazing after and proper fresh.
Everyone seems to have enjoyed the experience. "
It's a shame that men can't have a female do it that's the thing that spoilt it for me |

"Has anyone been to one? What's it like and do you recommend it?"
Thoroughly recommended, and great places to relax and unwind for a few hours.
Similarly, if you ever find yourself in Los Angeles, I would recommend a visit to a Korean spa for a exfoliating scrub after immersion in hot water, steam rooms and saunas.
For an unforgettable those-are-really-Russian-gangsters experience try the Wi Spa on Wilshire Boulevard and, in the evening, follow-up with an authentic Thai massage with a tiny 60 year old lady (with a density exceeding that of osmium) walking up and down your spine in East Hollywood.

My mind's made up I'm going to do it!
I've experienced the genuine Thai massage by the tiny lady. I felt a little trepidation when she shut the door and said "you can scream if you want to" |

I have a pretty high pain threshold (skiing on with a broken leg, that sort of thing) but that tiny old lady very nearly had me asking her to stop.
I think she may have been to the same massage school as an old guy in Hong Kong who works in the Four season's spa.
