The word thalasso comes from Greek: "thalasso" means water from the sea and curative therapy. It is the therapeutic use of water from the sea along with a sea climate; a natural cure in which the sea environment and all of its resources are put to use for health benefits.

Thalassotherapy is especially suitable for combating painful processes, rheumatic and chronic illnesses, osteoporosis, and vertebral problems. The exceptional richness of the sea and the sea environment, rich in trace minerals and mineral salts, effectively contributes to alleviate the deficiencies of our bodies.
