Sensorial Spas in Tuscany

A New Wellness Experience in Chianciano

Chianciano Terme has recently remained a little shadowed by the more famouse places such as Florence, Siena, San Gimignano, and the likes.

However, Chianciano Terme has been a famous and very important center for wellness and spa treatments since the Roman times.
The 1960s saw this little town booming with a very well-organized set of infrastructures, such as thermal facilities specialized in wellness, relax and cures, parks, restaurants, hotels of all kinds, and several entertainment facilities.

Just recently, I heard that the Sensorial Spas (or Terme Sensoriali at the moment only te Italian version of the site is ready) had been opened to the public on September 29, 2006.

The website shows a completely different approach to the usual thermal spas.
Ayurvedic doctors let you know what personalized path you should follow, prescribing times and the order with which to go about the various steps.

There are several paths, few of which are relaxing, enegizing, purifying, and regenerating.

The various "activities" comprehend chromotherapy, aromatherapy, phonotherapy, introspective therapy, total body hydromassage, creek walk, high salinity pool, underwater and chromotherapy relax pool, enrgizing marble pyramid, Etruscan Sauna, Turkish Sauna, Swedish Sauna, warm mud "Melmarium", Steam Baths, Depurative liver water fountain, Laminar water massage, and Water rope massage.

The Terme Sensoriali offer plenty of silence and relaxing corners on comfortable sunbeds. Showers and restrooms are of the highest standards. The service is first-class: at the entrance you are given a personal bag with your bath robe, slippers, soap, hair cap, towel, and a hair-brush. The locker rooms are very stylish and include two hair driers and comfortable sits.

A tea-room and a zen garden offer a great conclusion to a wonderful wellness experience in Tuscany.

The length of each session is between 2 and 3 hours.
Entrance is 30 Euro per person.
Yearly pass for one person is 500 Euros.
The You and Me formula is 400 Euros per person.

Open everyday from 10 AM to 10 PM.
Chianciano has surpassed itself with this one. After the experience I REALLY want to get the yearly pass!
