Kos - birthplace of Hippocrates, Father of Medicine - is the most famous Greek island in medical history. The magical powers of seawater were already known around the Mediterranean more than 2.500 years ago… It is therefore fitting that the luxurious Thalassotherapy Spa opened at the Grecotel Kos Imperial.
THALASSOTHERAPY
The very core of the Elixir-ThalassoSpa concept: thalassotherapy. Its elixir is seawater. According to the French biologist R. Quinton, the constitution of seawaterclosely resembles that of blood plasma on account of its high content of trace elements. If one heats up seawater to a temperature of between 31 and 33 degrees C, these trace elements permeate through the pores of the skin into the body and revitalise the whole organism while strengthening and firming up the tissues. This revitalising effect is especially effective in the case of overtiredness and stress.
AYURVEDA
The 'Elixir' Thalassotherapy Center presents Ayurveda which is known as “The Mantra for Health & Happiness”. A whole new dimension of Spa opens up as we learn to touch and communicate with you in a manner that honors your uniqueness and body type. The spa-experience then becomes a context where your true nature can blossom and unfold. Inevitably, this is what each one of us seeks.
