Holiday in wellness centers in Italy is the way to strengthen and heal your body, using methods and products of "complementary medicine". An expression that indicates the treatment is not comparable to western scientific medicine, but it is often used together with the traditional treatments.
The disciplines of complementary medicine are part of "unconventional" medicine. The same group includes alternative medicine and naturopathy.
Naturopathic medicine (or naturopathy) is a complementary medicine whose theoretical foundations were formulated in the late nineteenth century in the United States and then spread around the world. It is based on the stimulation of the innate human body ability of spontaneous recovery and return to the equilibrium, known as homeostasis.
There are many naturopathic practices: massages, plantar reflexology, hydrotherapy, chromopuncture/chromotherapy, floratherapy, climatotherapy, aromatherapy and many others.
ROIS TRAVELS invites you to experience these and other practices. ROIS can organize your holiday in Italian wellness centers. ROIS can suggest you the best beauty farms and the most renowned Italian wellness centers.
Treatments Dictionary Offered in Italian Wellness Centers
Here is a tiny dictionary that can help you to choose between wellness treatments.
Hay bath: it serves to cause an excessive sweating and purify the skin. One is immersed in a bath containing moist herbs in fermentation, which emanates heat above 60 degrees.
Cleopatra's bath: it is one of the most classical treatments and it serves to moisturize and nourish the skin. One is immersed for half an hour in a bathtub, containing milk and 36 degrees water. The result is a velvety body.
Micronutrient (and algae) bath: it serves to remove the cellulite. Marine ingredients, like sodium and magnesium, help to drain the fluid retained in the tissues. It lasts twenty minutes and usually it is practiced after a cellulite massage.
Bandage: one is wrapped in moist and hot bandages and foil-wrapped. The benefits vary according to the compounds used. It can be salts-based to dispose of swelling. It lasts an hour.
Vichy shower: it is associated with a scrub or a massage and favors the disposal of liquids. One is lied down on special mats and treated with water jets of various intensities. It lasts 15 minutes.
Dermal scrub: it is similar to traditional scrub and precedes the treatment for the face. It removes dead cells, which make dull the skin and prepares the skin to absorb the active ingredients of the products used afterwards. This new system removes more superficial stratum of the epidermis, removing dark mark and making the face brighter.
Energizing treatment: this treatment tones the face and smoothes out the wrinkles. It improves the subcutaneous circulation thanks to massages that stimulates cells activity. At first, one proceed with a thorough face cleaning and then it is applied the hyaluronic acid and oil of wheat germ. At the end, you have a massage with a toning cream, which relaxes facial features just like a facelift.
Sebum balance treatment: it removes the shiny and impure appearance of oily skins. The skin is deeply cleansed and rice or clay absorbed the impurities. Then we apply a nourishing mask with vitamin A and zinc. The skin appears immediately drily and without dilated pores.
Aromatherapy massage: many essential oils are used with wheat germ oil or olive oil. The flavoring choice depends on personal taste. Some fragrant essences cleanse the body, others are energizing and stress-free, for example, the lavender favors the relaxation and the eucalyptus favors the breathing. The manipulation is an alternation of brushes and pressures, which pauses on the points of greatest tension.
Ayurvedic massage: it borne in India but now it is common in many of the wellness centers in Italy. It acts on the muscular and circulatory systems. During the treatment, the massage can be limited to the face or reach legs and arms along the energy channels.
Before trying any treatment in the beauty farm in Italy, it is opportune to notify to the staff if you are allergic to something: a cosmetic or an essential oil may irritate the skin. People who have low blood pressure should avoid the sauna: it would increase their exhaustion.

Holiday and Hydrotherapy: Saunas in Italy
To show you some examples of the ROIS TRAVELS’ wide proposals, we present three of the most common therapeutic practice that you can follow during the holiday in the wellness centers in Italy: hydrotherapy, thalassotherapy and hay baths.
Hydrotherapy implies the treatments systems based on the water. The success of this wellness therapy is due not only to water itself, but to the results obtained by the application of many stimuli on the body, in one of the wonderful wellness centers in Italy. Hydrotherapy is accompanied by thermal stimuli, mechanical - thanks to a greater or lesser pressure and/or friction generated on the skin - and chemical stimuli, thanks to preparations added to the water.
Water has a number of chemical and physical properties (heat transfer coefficient much greater than air, capacity to absorb heat, etc.) that make it the most effective tool for applying thermal stimuli, because the clammy stimulus is more intense than dry stimulus.
The word «sauna» is an old Finnish word. In Scandinavia, the vapour was produced by throwing water on stones heated on the fire until it became hot.
In the first saunas, stones were heated with a wood fire and the steam (in Finnish savu) was released after being circulated in the room (the Finnish "savusauna" evokes precisely this practice).
In Finland until the nineteenth century were sauna buildings. Today, the sauna, both in Italy and outside Italy, is conceived as a time for socializing and/or relaxing, like in the Roman thermae and in the Turkish hamam. The practice of saunas is spreading in the structures used for holiday, in the wellness centers and even in the gymnasium.
In the original Finnish sauna, the temperature can reach 80-100 °C, causing copious skin perspiration, while the humidity does not exceed 10-20%, except when you throw water on the stones.
As for the Turkish bath (or "wet sauna") the environment should be saturated with water vapor (humidity 100%) to form a mist at stratified temperature (from 20/25 °C at the feet level to 40/50 °C at the head level) which favours the perspiration depositing in the skin. The perspiration, generally less intense than in the sauna, is more than offset by longer permanence times (so in the end you can lose more fluid).
During holidays in the wellness centers in Italy you will be able to enjoy the pleasures of the sauna, in environments of luxury, surrounded by every comfort that can make unforgettable the holiday that ROIS TRAVELS can organize for you, leading you in the choice of structures -- both beauty farm and wellness centers - that Italy can offer you.
Holiday in Italian Wellness Centers: Thalassotherapy
Thalassotherapy uses the combined effect of sun, iodine and salt water that together offer great benefits and excellent results. The seawater is used for nebulization at a warm temperature. Another thalassotherapic application is the balneotherapy, which is carried out, on the contrary, with heated seawater (just above 30 °C). These types of bathroom exert a positive action towards the circulatory system. Finally, we find the treatments with seaweed rich in trace elements, which are used both fresh and dried.
Thalassotherapy combined with the action of heliotherapy is used for the treatment of articular pain, arthrosis and rachitis. It is the possibility of add one more reason to holiday in wellness centers in Italy.
Thalassotherapy is recommended for the treatment of diseases such as dermatitis. It is also considered effective in the post-traumatic rehabilitation. Why does thalassotherapy work? The skin pores, in contact with seawater, dilate and this favours the passage of trace elements, which are slowly released into the circulatory system. This corrects its imbalances. Seaweed, thanks to their antibiotic function, bacteriostatic and antiviral properties, contributes to the individual overall wellness. Thalassotherapy in wellness centers in Italy uses different components of marine environment: the seawater, sand, algae and mud.
This wellness treatment may include algae or mud baths, massages, bathes in seawater, showers, footbaths and walk in bathtubs, and many exercises that can be practiced standing immersed in water.
Thalassotherapy works with materials rich in iodine, which stimulates the metabolism and helps to burn fat. Furthermore, immersed in seawater you can do exercises designed to strengthen the musculature, while the water jet is directed against the body from the bottom up.
Thalassotherapy is to be avoided in people with nervous system diseases. The baths of cold water are not suitable for someone with cardio-vascular disorders.
Thalassotherapy in wellness centers in Italy also works as prevention: it reduce the chances to contract colds or bronchitis. It is a natural cure that reduces stress, fights cellulite, restores a good cells functioning and all this thanks to the sea.
Hay Bath during Holiday in Italian Wellness Centers
Hay baths are an experience not to be missed, which ROIS TRAVELS offers you to enrich your holiday in Italy.
Hay baths are a practice born in northern Italy, in the Tyrol. The herbs, which make up the hay, must be moist and able to ferment. Thus, they have a positive effect on the organism. The hay, which is fermenting, reaches temperatures above 60 degrees.
In Italy, the herbs capable of giving therapeutic effects to hay baths are milfoil, pulsatilla, ranunculaceae, rampion, sloe, alchimilla and gentian. Other plants widely used are: valerian, horsetail, sage, St. John's wort, mint, thyme, mallow, arnica, mountain chamomile, yarrow, veronica, scorzonera, clover, plantain, pilosella, primrose, arnica, bilberry and taraxacum, which have large draining property.
Of course, the hay baths herbs must not be chemically treated, fertilized or nourish.
The herbs that grow naturally in the mountains are collected and placed in large basins to ferment for several days. When the herbs are ready, you can dip in. You have the bath naked for about 15-20 minutes the first time and 30 minutes the following sessions.
This healing technique is also known under the name of "phyto bath therapy". Hay baths have the capacity to combat rheumatism, arthritis, "back strain", insomnia, digestive problems and conditions of both physical and mental tiredness. Baths with herbs strengthen the immune system, stimulate the vascularization, relax, detoxify and purify.
