Resort description
Fonteverde Lifestyle & Thermal Retreat 5* — is a thermal resort where you can combine relaxation with health restoration programs. Located in the Val d’Orcia valley (UNESCO World Heritage Site). This place has a calm, “anti-stress” atmosphere due to its remoteness from large cities.
The Italian region is famous for its thermal mineral springs with a temperature of about 42°C and a high content of calcium, magnesium, fluorine and sulfur, which have anti-inflammatory, analgesic, relaxing and detoxifying effects. Thermal waters and therapeutic muds are used in baths, pools, applications, inhalations and procedures for the respiratory tract, improving the condition of joints, muscles, skin and ENT organs.
Fonteverde is suitable for patients with chronic stress, sleep disorders and initial metabolic disorders who want to adjust their habitual lifestyle under the professional supervision of specialist doctors. For guests arriving for specialized treatment or detox courses, prior arrangement of accommodation, meals and schedule of visits to doctors and procedures is possible, which facilitates the planning of a wellness vacation.
