Thalasso centres in Brittany are revealing their new cures. At the forefront, they combine the concentrated powers of the Breton marine environment with tailor-made treatments. An overview of the latest innovations for taking care of yourself.

Let it go at Port of Crouesty

The new "100% Healthy" cure offered at Miramar La Cigale Hotel Thalasso & Spa, a stone's throw from the Port of Crouesty, aims to help you get back into shape after a period of overwork. On the agenda: a nutritional assessment, targeted hydrotherapy treatments paired with lyashi dome sessions (Japanese sauna), massages, osteopathy, somato-psychopedagogy and acupuncture sessions to regain a new breath in just 4 days.

Recover mindfulness at Concarneau

Thalasso Concarneau Spa Marin Resort offers an innovative program of 6 days and 18 treatments to overcome stress and reconnect with oneself. In addition to thalasso treatments and relaxing massages, the "stress & mindfulness" cure allows you to free your mind with workshops which introduce you to meditation with mindfulness.

Refind your passion for sports at Quiberon

Sofitel Quiberon Thalassa Sea & Spa is launching a new challenge for spa guests: listen to their bodies and understand them in order to slim down, tone up and build muscle. The new 4 or 6-day "Sports Starter by Polar" program provides tailor-made support by sports coaches, physiotherapists and dieticians.

Getting back to sleep in Saint-Malo

In 2018, les Thermes Marins of Saint-Malo launched a new 6-day cure dedicated to sleep. This "Sea & Sleep Capital" program begins with a sleep coaching session to configure each client's smartphone to analyze their sleep-related issues. Massage, vibratory manoeuvres and pressure points are then carried out during the treatment to deeply untie the tensions and regain energy.

Refine your silhouette at Dinard

The "Shapes and Shape" cure offered at Thalassa Sea & Spa Dinard aims to sculpt your body with a simple and effective formula of 24 treatments to be performed in 6 days. On the agenda plantar reflexology to let go, jet showers, marine drainage, slimming wraps with rockweed, hydromassage sea baths, and pressotherapy.

Take care of oneself at Roscoff

The new "Dr. Bagot's cure" pays tribute to the founder of the first thalassotherapy centre in Europe in 1899. The Thalasso Valdys Roscoff offers, in a single protocol, the benefits of the marine environment by combining them with the latest technological innovations. Traditional treatments are combined with palpate-rolling, aqua-kine sessions and oxygenating walks.

Test the benefits of Ayurveda in Carnac

Ayurveda, an ancient Indian medicine, takes on a new dimension at Carnac Thalasso & Spa resort. After a consultation, a tailor-made program is established to carry out the new "Bio & Ayurveda" cure. Thalasso treatments, Ayurvedic massages and yoga await the curists for 5 days.

Enjoy a carte blanche in Pornichet

A unique and privileged moment at Château des Tourelles in the Bay of La Baule as a part of the "Carte Blanche" stay. This new 5-day program is designed for connoisseurs who already know which treatments are right for them. The cure offers them the freedom to choose for themselves the treatments that will complement those provided in the Relais Thalasso suite, a space specifically reserved for these thalasso enthusiasts.
