In the Western world, the type of bath in which the bather sweats freely in hot dry air, is then washed, often massaged, and has a cold wash or shower is now more widely known as a Victorian Turkish bath.[1]
Victorian and Victorian-style Turkish baths
[edit]The first Victorian Turkish bath was built in 1856 in Co. Cork, Ireland. Hot-air baths of the same type, built after Queen Victoria's reign (1837–1901), are known as Victorian-style Turkish baths,.[2]
