Etruscan Saline Caves

Hot Spring baths and the Etruscans

Enjoy a journey of the senses the same way the ancient Etruscans, a people who elevated body wellness to a symbol of eternity experienced the ideal of beauty.
A unique spa journey that finds its origins in the ancient treatments used by the Etruscans. The very pure, hot and cold water is enriched with magnesium and potassium, making it rich in special therapeutic elements,  used in all its forms. Through osmosis, thanks to a high concentration of potassium and magnesium, it penetrates the skin, generating its specific benefits: strengthens the immune system, hydrates and protects the skin - especially sensitive skin -  generates a cardiotonic and draining effect on the whole body, improves the quality of sleep, and has a strong anti-stress effect. An experience that involves the body and mind. Hot water you can immerse yourself in, be massaged by, breathe in its steam, regenerate yourself under a cool cascade, walk on revitalizing pebbles, which imitate a river bed and, finally ... relax on massage chairs with chromotherapy, where you can clear your mind in a peaceful atmosphere while sipping an herbal tea to help replenish minerals.
The water temperature positively influences cellular exchanges and chemical reactions, especially the lysis of adipose tissue.
The therapeutic power of sodium-magnesium-alkaline water is enhanced by alternating baths and steam at various, appropriately established temperatures, producing a form circulatory exercise that is very useful for blood vessels and muscles.
Cold water reduces inflammation and congestion, and shrinks blood vessels.
Warm water reduces muscle tension, increases perspiration, dilates blood vessels, therefore, accelerating circulation. Alternating hot and cold water can increase or reduce circulation.
Hydrotherapy is effective in orthopedic, rheumatic, and neurological treatments, as well as in stimulating the body’s vital force, while strengthening psychophysical equilibrium and the immune system, and calms stress.
It is, furthermore, effective in detoxifying the organism and for a soft and moisturized skin without stretch marks.
Salus Per Acquam: health through water.
The trace elements dissolved are: sodium, magnesium, potassium and iodine.
The osmotic effect determined by the saline solution on the skin eliminates toxins from subcutaneous tissue, allowing for  better oxygenation.
Furthermore, the presence of potassium chloride has a slight diuretic effect, therefore, promoting the elimination of excess fluid, with a consequent decrease in  swelling of the lower limbs.
Tissue affected by microcirculation problems, as occurs with cellulite, leads to considerable benefits.
Other positive effects are determined by the presence of magnesium, which promotes muscle relaxation, while the iodine stimulates metabolism.
