Water treatments

Much more than an unusual activity, this is a deep relaxation session in the warm waters of the Bains du Rocher.

Valérie, a wellbeing practitioner, offers a unique relaxation session. In water at 34°C, with floats on your legs and your head on the surface thanks to Valérie’s support, the sensation of being weightless quickly promotes a state of deep relaxation.

A unique journey tailored to each individual. The naturally warm water relaxes the muscles, leading to deep relaxation. Let go, reduce stress and disconnect your mind for a zen holiday in the mountains.
