Here I am at the Hammam. Private space (for two to four people in the same bubble).
Sylvain and I meet every week for two hours. Bliss.
In the Hammam you have the dry sauna (pictured), a steam bath with a cold shower in the middle, and two tubs to soak in the cold after the sauna. (Hey: we don't have to go into the cold!! Many people stick to the warm!)
So I start with the steam, my heat rising from the room itself. Optional: I place essential oils in the space provided to breathe them in directly from the steam and wrap myself in them. When I'm hot, I cool down in the shower. The first few times, not for long, but the more I get used to my body, the more it wants to be in the cold (surprising to say on a day like today!), it's then euphoric and the feeling immediately after, then for hours, extraordinary. Bonus: the skin is toned. The relaxation is total.
After the steam, I go to the dry sauna. My bath runs during this time. I quickly get very hot in the dry space, in 5-10 minutes. Then I put my feet, my legs in the bath. It's rare that I can do more. I return to the warmth. Then I can sit in the bath. And stay longer and longer. Sometimes up to 7 minutes. And if I return to the warmth, it's to be able to return to the cold. In this exceptional... and lasting sensation. This frenzy in which my whole being participates. Indescribable but so addictive.
I'm going to take some invasive steam breaks (steam bath side) and then return to my exciting circuit. I'll explain all this to you live from a cold bath (7 minutes)
Two hours go by quickly.
We then want to relive it. At least once a week.
As the space is private, reserved for the two of you (or 4 from the same address), it remains open.
This makes me understand the benefits - which are beyond me - of thermalism . And tame our winter afterwards. It's not strange. I can find a little, when outside, of that well-being so appreciated following my visits to our Hammam. My body associates the benefits with the cold.
I won't be able to do without it anymore.
Where : At our MJ Eastman, 355 rue Principale (across from the church). With accommodation options (so I would reserve the Hammam area for 2 hours each day during my stay and why not a session in the infrared sauna (for the full package) and meals (gourmet salad, soups, broths, chili, drinks for a fee, the essentials are offered to you for a completely regenerating stay).
To live. And to relive . It's my vacation repeated every week. My way to disconnect. To "reset." To live more. To enjoy.
Price : $90 for 2 people for 2 hours (weekends and holidays, $5 extra per person).
Book here. Select "Eastman Private Hammam" from the menu. For the infrared sauna, click on MJ Eastman and you'll find it in the services section.
- Kathya Cloutier: I highly recommend it! A wellness experience to treat yourself to and explore.
- Julie Marchand: This week I had the chance and the happiness to live the incredible experience of the Hammam (private spa) at the MJ of Eastman. I went there for my birthday, we had rented a room in the house, the Royale for 2 nights and reserved the private Spa for 2 sessions (1 per day), in addition to discovering the excellent healthy meals offered on site. The shop is right in the house, which allowed us to browse quietly while asking all the questions we had about the products. The team of girls there is great! From Line to Coralie without forgetting Laura and Laurie, they are all welcoming, smiling and passionate. The Hammam experience allowed us to try different shampoos and soft gels while in the room we were able to try soap, room spray and others. What can I say about the steam baths and sauna…just Wow! Our favorite “the cold water bath” (ie iced). Everything was simply PERFECT!! I wish you to live the “total” experience of the Spa and the MJ of Eastman.
How is your detox going?
To regain energy and lightness, click here for my gourmet detox "plan" offered over 21 days ... after which, I believe you will always want to continue because you will feel so much better.
My detox is simple, delicious, and easy to integrate. No dieting or calorie counting. Instead, it's good lifestyle habits, with or without superfoods, that make the difference.
Here is the process:
The goal: to always feel better in our body to make everything easier, to be fulfilled and to shine.
- 1- In the morning on an empty stomach: lemon juice (Yellow Tonic juice or homemade lemon) then Essential Fibers
- 2- Shake with 3 options: the smoothie or Collagen + MCT oil, or Protein + MCT oil (and if you are hungry, eat!)
- 3- Gourmet salad (10-12-14 sprouts/vegetables/herbs/varied with avocado, seeds, nuts and whatever you want!) to start lunch and dinner (so take whatever you want after, ideally focusing on protein and good fats)
- 4- THE FRIEND at bedtime, if necessary.
No more rocket science, everything is detailed in the article here or in the video an hour ago, with Sylvain & me live here . This morning I answered your questions here clearly and precisely !
If you can, I have prepared my choice, my selection of superfoods to start with*: the complete set , to which add, to have everything, 1 or 2 salad bulks (1 bulk gives 5 meals, one bulk is good for 5 days) - which you can obviously also prepare at home - and 2 Yellow Tonic juices (which you can otherwise replace with lemon juice). AH! we are giving you our peppermint chlorophyll * as a gift with this Complete set. (It expires on paper at the end of the month, we prefer to give it to you! Good ally and appropriate).
You can order all of this through our express online counter (we prepare your box in our houses: we start with your dishes, salad, juice then we continue in store to add the superfoods and everything else you want inside.). If you order by tomorrow 8am, you will receive it the next day. You can also get superfoods in our homes :
- either by showing up on site, we obviously respect the health measures,
- or by calling to have your order prepared (allow 24 hours for delivery if you add bulk salads that we prepare on request)
- Overseas (in Europe for example), you can order superfoods, delivery is express (normally in 5 working days) for around 20 euros (don't be surprised by the taxes added when placing the order, these are simply the taxes of your country which are not included in the prices, this is how it is in our country, we are used to seeing them added when paying) .
Here are some more superfood bundles to find yours, all on special or with a freebie:
- Basic Duo (Essential Fiber & AMI) ($56.76) for a flat stomach (i.e. no bloating)
- Complete Duo and Citrus Collagen (in a bag) ($100.50) with free shaker (my "fountain of youth" drink with as many benefits for skin as for muscles while being a source of fabulous antioxidants that gives me energy, tastes so good, sugar-free)
- In the Complete Superfood Set ($233.32 instead of $259.25) you get the two duos above plus the Chocolate Protein Mix (still sugar-free)
- Lightness Combo Green tea extract with Vitalcâlin, digestive enzymes: https://maisonjacynthe.ca/fr/combo-legerete
NB: We received approval yesterday for TCM oil (which I added to the Complete package) allowing these claims:
- Provides medium-chain fatty acids that support energy production in the body.
- Use with a meal plan (...) to help with weight management (one reason to support this claim: good fats suppress hunger!)
*You can detox without superfoods! Start with a smoothie as fiber (if you're not "too carb-heavy" the rest of your day)

At lunch, I have my collagen with my wholegrain rice protein and all my vitamins, and of course my salad, which I enjoy at lunchtime, and for the evening, I eat very lightly. Since January 3rd, I started a HIIT exercise program that burns fat, yes, but above all, it's a 20-minute workout program that strengthens and firms. I've also incorporated cardiac coherence and yoga. Since I discovered Maison Jacynthe in January 2021, I can't do without this lifestyle... Jacynthe inspires me every day.
- Isabelle G: I would like to share, in simplicity, the victory for us, for HIM, of a difficult period… My husband, friend, my other half, love
had a difficult year, and I testify with his sincere consent. Health problems, bullying at work, immense external stress... In November he worried me, he is super well followed by doctors and his blood tests are perfect.... So I decided to take care of him naturally... because I felt a loss of vitality and he is hyperactive... I introduced the Complete, to compensate for these mornings without good nutrition. Then, of course, the big nourishing salad I made him like 
Magnesium, one of our precious allies. But the most wonderful, vitamin D, Focus, Complex B, Omega 3, have changed his life so much, my life, in almost 2 months, he is energized and I find my best, my lover!!! I put a small empty pill jar filled with his vitamins in his work boot, so he has no choice but to put them in his pocket. That way, I have the guarantee that he does not forget them and I text him in the morning to make sure.
