For your Wellness
In the subsoil of Ischia there is the highest concentration of thermo-mineral springs in Europe. Since ancient times the waters have been used for their therapeutic properties and, since the sixteenth century, Casamicciola Terme has been a point of reference for those who want to practice spa treatments, having some of the most important basins of the entire island. Today the use of modern technology allows those who work in the sector to make the most of this underground treasure that the island holds.

The ancient Greeks and Romans knew the relaxing properties of thermal waters long before the term wellness was coined. And the island of Ischia, thanks to its volcanic origin, has waters in the depths of the subsoil that flow at different temperatures after having absorbed from the rocks with which they came into contact mineral substances that have a positive impact on the body.
Interesting research by the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Graz and the hospital of St. Pölten, Austria, has revealed that a bath in thermal water significantly reduces the cortisol content in saliva. Cortisol is a hormone that increases when the body is under stress, increases blood sugar and reduces protein turnover, through which the body renews worn-out proteins by replacing them with new protein material.
