FROM THE SEA,COMES REBIRTH

The regenerating powers of the seaOn all its shorelines, the sea works miracles.It oxygenates. It regenerates. It helps restorethe body’s mobility, tone and vital energy.How does it do all that? The secret lies in osmosis. Thanks to this phenomenon, when seawater is heated, the skin directly absorbsall the minerals and trace elements that the body needs. Thalassa sea & spa has been perfecting the art of bringing these benefi ts to the body for 53 years.

OriginsThe Thalassa sea & spa story began in Quiberon in 1964. Here on this Breton peninsula, therapy came to be synonymous with pleasure. Taking care of your health while getting away from it all. Relaxing and recharging your batteries. And so, the modern seawater spas were born and soon caught on, with new institutes opening in Le Touquet, Ajaccio, Biarritz and Dinard and elsewhere.

My Thalassa sea & spa experience+ Even more destinations to escape to, from the Atlantic Ocean to the Persian Gulf

+ Even more dedicated carewith attentive, mindful and expert teams

+ Even more ways to let go with the very latest in wellness techniques

+ Even greater results thanks to cutting-edge treatment technologies and methods

+ Even longer-lasting benefi ts with thorough check-ups and a personalized follow-up

Health, beauty, wellnessThalassa sea & spa once again reinvents the future of seawater treatments. Our approach is connected, preventive and personalized, optimized to help you preserve your health, looks and well-being all at once. It is a renaissance for the body and mind. That is the seawater spa of the future.

Discover the seawater spa of the future on page 16.

Naturally SeawaterNature takes care of us. We take care of nature. We owe the sea everything, which is why we strive to protect it. All our destinations have received ISO 14001 environmental management certifi cation.
