The Vilalara Thalassotherapy Center occupies an area measuring 2600 m2 and represents only the best in how the marine climate of the Atlantic and its derivatives are used for therapeutic purposes, providing modern equipment and treatments.
Considered one of Europe’s finest Thalassotherapy & Spa Center, it is managed according to strict rules and complies with the conditions set out in the Quality Charter of the International Federation of Thalassotherapy.
Thalassotherapy is a preventative therapy par excellence. Thanks to the specific activity of the marine medium and the comprehensive and natural monitoring of the body, doctors are able to prevent imbalances capable of harming the metabolism. Seawater is an authentic source of vital elements. Its biological components and physiological composition containing 92 of the 120 known trace elements, similar to human plasma, permit metabolic renewal.
Thalassotherapy considers each case unique and each client follows a treatment specifically adapted to his or her needs. An initial medical consultation determines the treatment plan for each individual. For this reason, the Center provides its clients with doctors, osteopaths, physiotherapists and hydrotherapists trained in the latest Thalassotherapy techniques.
