The SPA of the Grand Hotel Alassio

At thirty minutes by car from Monte Carlo and a couple of hours from Milan, the sophisticated 5-star Grand Hotel Alassio has earned a prominent position in the list of top hotels since its inauguration. It is treasured by its clientele for many reasons, including the Thalassio Medical SPA. Set in an edifice that is a pyramid made entirely from glass, a few metres from the hotel and joined to it by a corridor, the modern SPA covers an area of 1,500 square metres spread over three floors: on the lower-ground floor there is a pool with heated sea water, hydromassages, water cascades, counter-current swimming and Kneipp itinerary. Plus a wet zone with Finnish sauna, Turkish bath, aromatic herb bath, ice cascade, herbal tea bar and chill-out zone. The first floor houses the reception, the treatment cabins, and the surgeries; and the second floor has a fitness area, with personal trainers available for yoga and pilates classes. But the benefits of the Thalassio Medical SPA are not limited to its spaces or the ample range of fabulous treatments on offer. This buen retiro offers the advantages of total wellbeing, through an innovative project that goes beyond the concept of wellness centre. Health means feeling good about your body and expressing your age at its best, whatever age you are. This is the goal of the Thalassio Medical SPA, a unique “Method”, an integrated Programme made possible by the presence of a team of qualified doctors offering consultations in various fields of medicine. There are detox and pain-relief therapies and there are packages available, inclusive of the hotel stay. The most popular treatments are those associated with personalized nutrition, weight management and stress management. As regards the treatments, don’t miss the Ayurvedic Mukashiro and Snehana massages, the Thai reflexology treatment, and a therapeutic session with massotherapy treatment, or with the osteopath. And there is something for the kids: Thalassio Dream, a range of services dedicated especially to children from 8 to 14 years of age.
