Enjoy a pleasant thalassotherapy treatment in Provence
The Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region has 11 thalassotherapy centers, mainly located in seaside towns. You can combine fitness, well-being, and seaside tourism with all the pleasures of the coast and the beach.
Thalassotherapy is a combination of hydrotherapy treatments (whirlpool or hydromassage baths, jet showers, etc.) combining the benefits of seawater and marine products with massages (seaweed or marine mud wraps, affusion massages and modeling, etc.). . Thalasso centers offer weekly, weekend, or daily packages for fitness and wellness stays, anti-stress treatments, weight loss, and postnatal care.
Treatments usually take place over half a day and generally include four or five treatments per day, depending on the program and the center.
Treatments:
individual marine hydrotherapy treatments: seaweed or marine mud wraps, hydromassage or whirlpool baths, jet showers, hydrojets, seawater massage (affusion massage), etc.
individual “dry” treatments: essential oil massage, pressotherapy, hydrojet, foot reflexology, cryotherapy...
group treatments in the pool or in the treatment room: stretching, aquagym, underwater jet, balneotherapy, back exercises, sophrology relaxation...
à la carte treatments at an additional cost: general massage, shiatsu, lymphatic drainage, body and facial beauty treatments, anti-cellulite treatments...
Please note: Treatments vary depending on the thalassotherapy center and not all are available: please confirm the treatments included in your program before booking.
