Tuscany's Terme di Saturnia Spa Offers 23-carat Gold Treatment

Terme di Saturnia, the destination spa and golf resort located at the base of the medieval Tuscan village of Saturnia in the heart of the Maremma region of Italy, announces the creation of two unique full body treatments – the Golden Body Treatment and the Saturnia Amber Massage. The full body treatments last durations of 2 hours each and are priced at €420 and €390 respectively.

At the heart of the Golden Body Treatment multisensory experience are the essences of pure gold, silk and ginger. A scrub enriched with extracts of ginger camomile, silk protein and Jojoba oil exfoliates the skin while the scents create a state of complete tranquility. The application includes a luxury, state-of-the-art gel of 23-carat gold, caffeine, carnitine, aescin and coenzyme with lipolytic results. A flow of hot oil is applied to the skin to nourish and create a luminous glow. Following the treatment is a relaxing Pindasweda massage to caresses the entire body as it releases camomile, lavender, calendula and balm scents. The body is then enveloped with a ginger-based mask and particles of gold to reduce and tone. At completion a rich emollient cream of silk protein provides a wonderful velvety texture to indulge the body in a sublime sensation of well-being.

Ancient as time itself; the fossil resin Amber has enjoyed a variety of different uses and applications over the centuries. From use in sacred incenses and amulets to beauty and wellness treatments, Amber is once again at the forefront of achieving total wellness. It is now the featured ingredient for treatments and therapies at Terme di Saturnia Spa & Golf Resort due to its powerful detoxification and drainage properties. Applied using balls of Baltic Amber, the Saturnia Amber Massage combines the benefits of the precious Baltic resin with the art of massage for a rejuvenating effect. The amber balls stimulate the circulation and reduce physical and emotional stress providing a “remise en forme” effect and total well-being.
Both treatments are available to guests of the spa and golf resort year round.

Daily rates range from €210 – €750 per night (per person, double occupancy) and €280 – €1,500 per night (single occupancy).
