O’Kari Hammam / 22, rue Dussoubs – 2e

It had been a long time since we heard about this little hidden temple, dedicated to well-being and adored by the whole neighborhood. But we had to experience meeting Karima to understand why; she is smiling and generous, the caring and comforting person we needed to escape from the Parisian hustle and bustle. A rare and friendly place where it is so good to take care of oneself.

You have to cross the courtyard of a private mansion in the 2nd arrondissement to discover, under its vaults, a unique and magical place. Warmly welcomed by Karima, the hostess, you instantly feel like part of the family. Born in the heart of the Sahara, this little girl of an herbalist and former physiotherapist decided ten years ago to share her knowledge of care, well-being, and relaxation with women. Thus was born O'kari, a hammam combining authenticity and modernity. To honor this sacred moment of plenitude and serenity, as well as the arrival of spring, we opt for the Beauté treatment. For nearly two hours, our body will be exfoliated, massaged, and pampered. After a steam bath with eucalyptus, we indulge in a black soap exfoliation, followed by a thorough scrub and a soaping with Aleppo soap to welcome the beautiful days with renewed and hydrated skin.

To help our face smoothly transition into winter, we also treat ourselves to a lovely radiance thanks to a blend made by Karima with spirulina, hemp, and aloe vera. The best part? Finishing with a comforting and massaging shampoo for the scalp and upper back on hot stones. A timeless moment that we promise to regularly renew.

In short, O'Kari is the confidential and exceptional address to take the time to disconnect and indulge in the ancient rituals of the hammam.
