Like a vintage jewel, the Miraj Hammam Spa brings a touch of old world ritual and romance to Vancouver’s modern South Granville landscape. A hammam-spa, fashioned on the ancient bath-houses of Turkey and France, Miraj’s musk and myrhh scented, soft lamp-lit interior beckons one behind an entryway of curving wrought iron, right into a Marrakesh medina.
In this world where steam baths and hydrotherapy are thought to be life-giving and essential to well-being, it’s no surprise that Miraj’s most popular offering is its signature “Gommage” treatment where high-intensity steam chambers soothe and cleanse. Here, even shy west-coasters must cast aside their prudish ways as, post steam, they must strip off their batik (signature Miraj) sarongs, for a whole body exfoliation with a Moroccan black olive sea-salt scrub. The good news, the treatment is offered to you alone – unless you are here on couples day, with your other half, or with a friend.
Post gommage, you are showered off and left with buttery-soft skin. Plan to retire to the tea lounge for some sweet cake and chai tea… You will be there for a while.
