Spa Luxury Hotel in Cartagena | Aurum Spa by Hotel Casa San Agustin

Aurum is the Latin word for “gold” or “brilliant sunrise”. The pre-Colombian civilizations revered the sun as an important deity and in ancient times the Sun was often thought to live on the Earth just like gold, a universal symbol of the utmost purity and value. A much sought-after element in alchemy, gold is the classic symbol of beauty, of wealth and of power.

Gold often represents the sun, and the radiance and purity of gold allude to its healing and mystical properties, as well as its qualities of protection and harmony with nature. Aurum Spa, inspired by such a powerful element, is a space dedicated to the awakening of the inner strength and natural abundance inherently available to each person.

Hammam

This ritual is a Moroccan tradition, practiced today all over the world. The body is rinsed and cleansed in a moist steam room before a vigorous exfoliation with a scrub made of coffee, volcanic mud and pure tobacco, ingredients combined for their highly purifying effect. The treatment can be done on one’s own or by a therapist. Ideal before any other treatment to improve circulation, liberate tension and optimize the nourishment of the skin.
