MASSAGES
At the Wellness Centre of the Grand Hotel Terme, guests can enjoy the ancient art of massage, with one of our customised programmes that dip into age-old traditions and far-off cultures, ideal for reinvigorating the body.
CLASSIC COMPLETE MASSAGE
(40 minutes)
The oldest physical therapy applied to the whole body soothes tension in the muscles and alleviates pain.
CLASSIC PARTIAL or CERVICAL MASSAGE
(20 minutes)
The oldest physical therapy helps soothe tension in the muscles and alleviate pain. It is applied to specific parts of the body (partial massage to the back or lower limbs).
HOLISTIC MASSAGE
(75 minutes)
Holistic massage (from the Greek olos, meaning global, whole) combines a range of different massage techniques, going to work on all the muscles so as to take care of the whole body. This makes it an effective solution for a wide variety of ailments, such as tiredness, difficulty in falling asleep, feeling of bloating and numbness of joints.
LYMPH DRAINAGE
(50 minutes)
Lymph drainage by hand is no doubt the gentlest of all Western massages: it is ideal to stimulate lymphatic circulation and consists of lightly applying pressure to the face and body, accompanying the flow of lymph through slow, rhythmic movements. It is especially recommended for oedemas, water retention, cellulite, lymphatic stasis due to surgical operations and when it is necessary to strengthen the immune system.
It is not recommended for acute infections, heart failure, phlebitis, thrombosis or thrombophlebitis.
ANTI-STRESS MASSAGE
(50 minutes)
This massage soothes the muscle sheaths, aiding the recovery of psychophysical balance and eliminating stress.
SCENTED BODY MASSAGE
(50 minutes)
This anti-stress massage helps recover psychophysical balance through the use of essential oils.
YANNA MASSAGE
(50 minutes)
The peculiar feature of the Yanna massage is that it is carried out on a special rocking bed; the swinging movement provides a pleasant sense of relaxation: this step precedes the activation of the revitalising processes fundamental to keep the system in perfect shape, as they improve respiratory and energy functions. Muscle tension is replaced by a sense of inner calmness and a complete perception of the body and mind.
HOT STONE MASSAGE
(75 minutes)
Man has been aware for thousands of years of the therapeutic qualities of stones, which preserve the memory of the geological changes undergone by the Earth and contain their reinvigorating energy. This massage uses black stones, basaltic and volcanic, which are known for their harmonising, relaxing effect.
THAI MASSAGE
(75 minutes)
Thai massage boasts a long tradition in therapeutic practices. Ancient Thai Massage (also named Nuad Boram) is recommended to recover vital energies and to restore the body’s bio-energetic balance. Based on the principles of traditional Chinese medicine and to Indian ayurvedic medicine, as well as to ideas derived from yoga and stretching, the main aim of traditional Thai massage is to achieve emotional and spiritual improvement, accompanied by a general sense of lightness.
SHIATSU MASSAGE
(50 minutes)
First developed in Japan in the early 20th century, Shiatsu literally means “pressure with the fingers”. It is performed mainly with the thumbs, but sometimes also with the palm and back of the hands. By applying pressure to hundreds of points on the surface (the so-called tsubo) along the meridians of the body (energy channels), Shiatsu stimulates the flow of the Qi (vital energy). It is mainly employed as a preventive therapy and is also used as a physiotherapy treatment for specific ailments.
PLANTAR REFLEXOLOGY
(50 minutes)
According to ancient Chinese traditions, countless nerve endings converge in the foot, and each one has a reflex action on other parts of the body. Plantar reflexology goes to work on specific points of the sole to restore the equilibria that govern the body, thus providing an immediate sense of wellbeing. This treatment is recommended for people of all ages, both adults and children.
PREGNANCY MASSAGE
(75 minutes)
Pregnancy massage, also known as prenatal massage, responds to the needs of the mother-to-be during the various stages that precede delivery. Useful even when no specific joint problems are present, it enhances muscle function, improves circulation and tones up both the body and the mind.
CHILD MASSAGE
(25 minutes)
Massaging children is an ancient tradition that belongs to many cultures: in India it is a daily practice, as it accompanies their development and maintains health as they grow up.
AYURVEDIC MASSAGE
(75 minutes)
Ayurvedic massage dates back over 5000 years and has its roots in Indian tradition.
According to the Ayurvedic philosophy, Man, and more generally the universe, follows three coexisting principles (or energy centres named Dosha): Vata is the principle of movement, Pitta controls changes and Kapha governs static energy.
Each person has a predominant Dosha that characterises his/her psychophysical structure. A lack of balance of the Dosha causes anomalies of varying severity, which may turn into ailments. Ayurvedic massage’s basic aim, therefore, is to rebalance these key energy centres.
FOUR-HAND AYURVEDIC MASSAGE
(75 minutes)
Four-hand ayurvedic massage has been in use in India since ancient times, and is performed by two operators working in perfect synchrony, applying the same movements and using the same amount of pressure on the body of the patient.
Thus, the energy released with the massage is doubled, as is its effectiveness in preventing a further imbalance of the Dosha.
SHIRODARA
(75 minutes)
Translated literally, Shirodara means “continuous flow on the head”, and it consists of continuously pouring on the forehead a trickle of warm oil, with a rocking movement from one temple to the other, while applying a light pressure that stimulates some energy points of the head, called “the third eye”. This treatment is used as an aid to cure ailments affecting the head, eyes, nose, throat, ears and the nervous system, as well as insomnia.
PINDASWEDA - MASSAGE WITH PADS
(50 minutes)
The massage is performed with warm pads enriched with a mix of powdered herbs, selected depending on the desired effect: relaxing, soothing or rebalancing.
In addition, we offer:
PLANTAR MASSAGE
(20 minutes)
ANTI-CELLULITE - FIRMING - DRAINING MASSAGE
(40 minutes)
COSMETIC MEDICINE TREATMENTS
Today it is possible to stop time, or at least to slow it down, by improving the appearance of our skin.
The Cosmetic and Corrective Dermatology Centre at the Grand Hotel Terme provides a wide range of treatments so that guests can combine a stay in a spa with top-quality medical support that includes freelance specialists and avant-garde equipment able to revitalise both the body and face.
There is no need to resort to surgery: our cosmetic medicine treatments employ non-invasive methods so that patients can soon resume their normal daily routine.
COSMETIC PEELING
The application of chemical substances such as glycolic acid, pyruvic acid and salicylic acid is the ideal treatment to smooth the skin and make the face brighter and more compact, reducing acne and skin stains.
BIO-STIMULATION OR BIO-REVITALISATION
Injecting hyaluronic acid, vitamins and nucleic acids into several points of the face stimulates the production of collagenous fibres and elastin, leaving the skin perfectly hydrated and younger looking.
FILLERS
These are the most widely used substances that can be injected to treat wrinkles and increase the volume of lips, cheekbones and other parts of the face. This method is not invasive; no surgery is required and it can be performed in a clinic. In our Centre we have chosen to use a laboratory-made hyaluronic acid that contains no substances of animal origin.
BOTULIN
By injecting small doses of botulinus toxins it is possible to smooth wrinkles and to eliminate the lines on the face, thus restoring a youthful, natural look. While the filler fills the wrinkles, this treatment has an indirect effect, blocking the muscles so that no more wrinkles will appear on the skin. The injections can be given in a clinic, using a thin needle and an anaesthetic cream (a slight tingling sensation may be felt). They take from 15 to 20 minutes.
NB:
Before performing any kind of treatments, a consultation with one of our specialists is compulsory: during this examination, the cosmetic specialist will carefully take into account any possible contra-indications.
The medical-cosmetic treatments performed at the Comano Spa ensure immediate results and an extremely natural effect.
