Healing Water

Since the early 14th century people have travelled to Fiuggi to enjoy the local water’s rich minerality and rejuvenating powers. “It’s best-known for restoring the kidneys and balancing the immune system, the mineral water has been scientifically proven to cleanse and purify,” says Palazzo Fiuggi’s spa and medical director, Professor David Della Morte Canosci. At Palazzo Fiuggi water is incorporated in every single program. Water-related experiences range from relaxing Thalasso therapy sessions to invigorating Scottish showers which promise to increase blood flow, reduce inflammation and cellulite. Of course, part of enjoying Fiuggi’s famous water is drinking large amounts of it. When you stay at Palazzo Fiuggi there’s no alcohol or coffee served, instead you’ll be drinking still or sparkling Fiuggi water and an array of teas.

State of the Art Machines and Treatments

While Palazzo Fiuggi has outstanding spa and beauty treatments, what really makes this property stand out is the amazing technology and scientific knowledge on premise. There are advanced programmes such as the Life Rewind and Deep Detox, which include retinal scans, deep sleep quality tests, ultrasound evaluation of the liver/abdomen, body composition assessment, DNA testing, cryotherapy, and Psammo therapy (an ancient practice which utilizes hot sand). The on-site Movement Lab also features futuristic devices like Icaros VR machines and Reaxing Training. Icaros VR is an especially unique experience where you get simulate flying or diving through space using a headset and your body motion. You also get a great workout along the way. 

Living through a pandemic, there are also programs that specifically address health issues that may have formed through COVID-19 at Palazzo Fiuggi. Their POST COVID 19 program launched this fall and evaluates the organs and systems that may have been weakened by Covid-19. “The program is designed to support and rebuild a resilient and improved immune system,” says Della Morte Canosci. “Our COVID treatments are very powerful as it’s a multi-organ approach method.”

Food as Medicine

Food plays a very important role during your stay at Palazzo Fiuggi and you have the chance to enjoy the nutritious creations of Michelin star chef Heinz Beck. He’s the mastermind behind multiple books that recognize the healing powers of food and brings this ethos to Palazzo Fiuggi. “With the ‘Heinz Beck Food Lines’ we wanted to create a new concept of food; not just a “diet” to follow but a nutritional model full of tastes, flavors and positive emotions for our guests,” says Beck. “Every Food Line is calibrated according to the needs of each guest and I strongly believe that having a healthy and balanced nutrition will help our organism against most of the recent disease that are caused by a bad and unbalanced nutrition.”

A stay at Palazzo Fiuggi helps guess re-assess their health, fitness and nutrition, all while staying in a stunning historic property.
