The ritual begins with the gentle warming up of the body through light fanning movements with bundled Pirts branches. A light shower of hot and cold water touches your skin. A salt and herb peeling cleanses your skin and makes it glow. After a short cool-down, you can relax with a glass of birch water in the Hermitage bistro lounge. Each ritual master gives the "Touch of Nature" a personal touch. The ritual, including welcome and conclusion, lasts 75 minutes.
Your skin in particular is cared for in the "Touch of Nature".
Rubbing the skin with the salt and herb peeling removes old flakes of skin and frees it from impurities. The pores open up and blood circulation is stimulated. This leaves your skin soft and smooth.
