The Romans started with playing sports or doing exercises at the gym (palaestra) of the baths. Bathing started in the apodytermium where people undressed. Then they went to the tepidarium, a room heated with warm air to prepare for the hot vapour of the baths and for anointing, which was usually done by slaves. The next step the caldarium, a hot air room, with a square-shaped pool with hot water (calida piscina) and a labrum, a round basin with cold water bathers poured on their heads before leaving the room. After this they went to the laconicum or sudatorium, a very hot, sweating room or sauna. The final step was in the frigidariuma room with a pool with cold water, for a cold plunge- bath to close the pores after they had been opened in the sudatorium. After this they returned to the tepidarium to reacclimatise the body before going back outdoors.
Bathing was followed by washing, which was separate from bathing. Then they had olive oil put on their body, and had their skin scraped with special metal scrapers (the strigil). Pumice and beech ash were used to treat the skin. Afterwards they had a massage which was done with perfumed ointments such almond oil and myrrh imported from the East and Egypt. In the smaller baths they did this in the tempdarium. In the larger baths there was a separate hall for this, the main hall.
