This deeply restorative massage is designed to release muscular tension, ease stiffness and help the body recover from physical fatigue. Ideal for active guests, frequent travelers or those experiencing chronic tightness, it targets deep layers of muscle and connective tissue with slow, focused pressure.
Your session begins with a brief consultation to understand your areas of concern. Using a warm blend of organic olive oil selected for its balance of glide and grip, your therapist applies long compressions, deep kneading and targeted pressure to areas like the back, shoulders, legs and hips. Each movement is purposeful, helping to relax tense muscles, improve circulation and reduce built-up stress.
Throughout the treatment, pressure is adjusted to your comfort. Gentle stretches may be used to support flexibility and encourage posture realignment. The effect is not only physical relief but also a deeper sense of calm and balance.
After your massage, you may use our dedicated shower facilities if you wish to refresh. While we recommend allowing the nourishing organic olive oil cold pressed from the groves of Ayvalık to remain on the skin, a gentle rinse is available before you proceed to the next phase of your ritual.
You are then invited to the Camekanlık lounge where herbal tea, detox water, dried fruits and cool towels are offered. We recommend spending at least 10 minutes here, allowing your body to fully absorb the benefits of the treatment and gently return to its natural rhythm.
This massage can be enjoyed as a standalone therapy or added to a hammam ritual for deeper renewal. Whether you are preparing for activity, recovering from long travel or simply in need of focused care, the Sports Massage supports you in reconnecting with your physical strength and inner stillness.
At Çukurcuma Hamamı 1831 we believe every massage is crafted with attention, warmth and intention. The Sports Massage is not only about working through tension but also about returning to balance, releasing what no longer serves and moving forward with renewed energy.
