Apple Wellness

Become as firm physically as an Alpine apple! Who wouldn’t like to? Several hotels in South Tyrol have responded to this desire by offering guests the opportunity to become just that with their wellness concepts based on the many-faceted curative properties of apples. In these treatments the healthy fruit is applied both externally and internally. A South Tyrolean spa experience could take the following form:

An apple tea is administered as preparation, followed by a bath alternating between warm and cold according to the principles of Sebastian Kneipp. The body is then embalmed in an emulsion made from freshly-pressed apple juice and wrapped in a cotton sheet soaked in salt and apple vinegar. A 45-minute relaxation phase follows with a gentle neck massage.
