7 nights Thermal Weight Loss

Weight loss is a difficult process for most people. Diets which leave people feeling hungry and a over ambitious physical training program are the greatest causes of people abandoning their weight loss program. At Balneario de Archena hydrotherapy, the practice of using water to treat the body, is used. The claim is that hydrotherapy can rid the body of diseases and clean the blood due to its healing properties. Spa Hotel & Resort Balneario de Archena uses water originating from a thermal spring holding mineral-medicinal qualities, and it is these properties that contribute to a healthy way of losing weight. Using hydrotherapy in combination with a low-calorie diet can be an effective and relaxing way to shed some pounds.

The techniques included in the weight loss program will be prescribed by the doctor during the medical consultation, normally the guest will do 2-3 techniques per day among the following treatments: Archena Massage, Thermal Balneacenter, Thermal mud, pressotherapy and slimming treatments (arms, legs, abdomen).

The historic Balneario de Archena is of great importance and prestige in health tourism at a national and international level. A typical Spanish wellness experience in beautiful surroundings! We can also offer you shorter and longer programs, for more information please contact us.

    Read what our clients have to say...

    Our stay was absolutely well prepared by our SIS-ters. Our first impression was very positive, a beautiful hotel in a beautiful authentic setting. The Wellness/detox combination completed the break for us. After an emotionally difficult period, we really enjoyed spending this special week together. We try to maintain the relaxed feeling as long as possible. The location has a lot of history, we found the information about this very special location/thermal sources very limited, which was a shame. We would have liked to know more about this (in advance), including the history. If we want to make a similar trip again in the future, we will certainly keep an eye on your site.
    Bea, Netherlands - 31 October 2023
    Had a fabulous time. Everything ran like clockwork. The hotel and its surroundings are gorgeous. Tina is an absolute hidden gem. As an English speaker she helped me through check-in /out and was on speed dial if I needed to ask a question. The Archena massage is an absolute unique experience and not to be missed. I intend to do a wellness break again and will be coming back to you. Thank you!
