Spas with Mud Treatments

Today we associate them with luxury spa experiences, and they can be a wonderful way to prepare for an another therapy such as a massage, as well as being a spa treatment in their own right.

Also referred to as rasul mud treatments or rhassouls, mud bath spa experiences vary but operate on similar principles. Essentially they are dedicated, private steam rooms. You are given pots of spa mud to apply to your face and body, or you can help your partner apply them as well. As part of the treatment, sometimes the spa will suggest applying a scrub to your skin first, sometimes they recommend it after the mud. Some mud can be applied to the hair, but you don’t have to get your hair muddy if you prefer not too. You then relax in the steam room with the mud on to let it work its magic, detoxing, softening and nourishing the skin.

Generally experienced as self-administered therapies, mud baths and mud rasuls are perfect for people who want to try spa therapies but are not keen on being touched by a therapist. However, they’re also perfect for sharing with friends as well as partners (depending on the size of the steam chamber). As a result, they are great for group spa breaks and hen parties, as well as making ideal couple’s spa treatment for time together and feel good factor.
