Be Breizh in Brittany on a wellbeing holiday
As the birthplace of thalassotherapy and home to some of France’s finest spas, Brittany is the destination for a wellbeing holiday. Here’s our top 3 reasons why you should consider Brittany for your next pampering break.
1. Brittany: the birthplace of thalassotherapy
What is thalassotherapy?
Thalasso in Greek means ’sea’ so thalassotherapy is seawater therapy. The first thalassotherapy centre opened in Brittany more than 100 years ago. Thalassotherapy harnesses the curative and beneficial properties of the sea and the marine environment for your health and wellbeing.
A programme of treatments using Brittany’s mineral-rich seawater, marine mud, seaweed and iodised sea air is carefully put together along with nutritionally balanced eating and gentle exercise to deliver effective holistic results. Choose from a whole range of dedicated packages: mother and baby, slimming, detox, stop smoking, muscular aches and pains.
2. Brittany’s spas
Following the example of Brittany’s trail-blazing thalassos, the region’s spas offer professional expertise to the highest standard. Quietly luxurious sanctuaries combine the latest techniques with scientifically researched product ranges and traditional treatments to relax, pamper and indulge. Get away from it all in blissful serenity.
