Terme di Galatro

The Galatro Spa is a thermal facility located in a picturesque valley rich in woods and centuries-old olive groves, in the municipality of Galatro, in the province of Reggio Calabria. The facility includes a hotel, a restaurant, a conference center, and both indoor and outdoor thermal pools, providing an ideal environment for relaxation and body care. The thermal waters flow at a temperature of 37°C from the S. Elia springs, situated in a narrow gorge of Monte Livia, and are particularly indicated for the treatment of rheumatic, dermatological, respiratory, and osteoarticular diseases. The waters are rich in minerals, with a chemical composition typical of sulfur, bromine-iodine, and iodine-rich waters, giving them a high therapeutic power. Sulfur, the main element of these waters, closely resembles the essential components found in human tissue and organ cells, enhancing the absorption and effectiveness of thermal treatments. The facility is affiliated with the National Health Service, allowing access to thermal treatments prescribed by a family doctor or specialist. Access is free and barrier-free, ensuring availability for all guests. For information and bookings, you can contact 0966 903735 or email info@letermedigalatro.it. The address is Viale delle Terme, 1, 89054 Galatro RC, Italy.

The history of the Galatro Spa is linked to the use of thermal waters by various monastic orders who, from the 8th to the 18th century, took care of the sick using the spring water whose therapeutic properties they understood and valued. The therapeutic sulfur springs of Monte Livia were discovered by Brazilian monks in 1550, who recognized the excellent healing properties of these waters. Over the centuries, the Galatro Spa has continued to develop, offering high-quality thermal services and becoming a nationally recognized wellness destination. The facility has been recently renovated, maintaining a focus on the health and well-being of guests, providing personalized programs prescribed by specialist doctors.
