Baths
Vulcano is nowadays affected by volcanic phenomenon, mainly steam, more evident on the Gran Cratere as in some parts of the East Bay. As a consequence, waters acquire therapeutic properties and become nicely warm, even in coldest months (Mud-baths pool and Warm Waters.)
Mud-baths pool is a warm “natural volcanic little lake”, alimented by volcanic springs that bring on the surface water, sulphur and metals, continuously producing fine mud.
Warm waters, on the coast close to the mud-baths, are determined by underwater springs that make water warm and produce a nice natural hydromassage.
The thermal sulphureous waters of the island are known as among the most effective in treating some diseases. Reported below, the commonest ones:
- Osteoarthrosis
- Canalicular syndromes
- Fibromyositic rheumatisms
- Fracture consequences (three months after), dislocations, muscular traumas
- Psoriasis
- Acne
- Inflammations of the respiratory system
- Feminine infertility due to tubal factors
- Early phases of gout
Spa therapy must always be suggested by a doctor, as it could be contraindicated in some diseases.
Wellness includes even a delicate warm bath at sunset, beauty care, talking in the most famous living room in the Aeolian Islands.
Next to the “mud-baths” , you may enjoy psychophysical wellness inside “Health Oasis“, a modern spa system rich in balneotherapy centres(geothermal pools at different temperatures); from here, in an enchanting frame, you may admire the outstanding volcanic cone.
