This region has long been known for it's
wine, cuisine, diversity of scenery and activities and has now become
internationally famous for it's world class spas. The region is rich in mineral
waters and at each spa there is a different combination of them so their
programs are indicated for different purposes. In addition the spas also offer Ayurvedic,
Thai, Holistic and pure pampering treatments so there is something for every
interest.
Spas of Tuscany is a full immersion, a voyage within
yourself to recover your lost well-being. This is the tourism of the new
millennium, and Tuscany is the region of Italy with the greatest number of
spas.
Think, for example, of the many springs with water rich in natural elements.
Think of the springs already known in the days of Emperor Augustus, or of those
preferred by Matilda of Canossa, or of the first water where Saint Catherine of
Siena used to bathe, or of the spas Pirandello and Verdi used to go to.
Natural resources, waters which find their way through the rocks drop by drop,
and come out into the sunlight in spontaneous springs, natural swimming pools
which you can dive into, in order to regenerate yourself and find a balance
between body fitness and inner serenity.
Spas have now become the new temples of health in Tuscany, where the natural
beauty of sites is rounded off by renovated tourist facilities, invigorating
streams, caves and falls with warm water. Enchanting places where nature
answers the need for health and well being.
One of the most famous spa in Tuscany is Terme Grotta
Giusti in the vicinity of Pistoia; have a look surfing: www.grottagiustispa.com
