The historic marble setting, cleanliness and attentive attendants made the traditional scrub and foam wash deeply relaxing. Clear explanations, private changing facilities and the quiet cooling lounge helped a first-time visitor feel comfortable. The scrub was much more vigorous than a gentle spa massage, and the request to tip at the end of treatment could feel socially awkward.
