We all need a break from our daily routine for something that will not only relax us, but revitalise and re-balance us too. Grand Resort Bad Ragaz, Europe’s leading wellbeing and medical health resort, has collaborated with French organic body care specialists Altearah® Bio to develop three new programmes exclusively available to guests at the five-star resort.

Three restorative programmes, Ragaz Relaxation, Ragaz Vitality and Ragaz Balance, are now available. Each programme comprises of several treatments which guests can enjoy over a period of two to five days, safe in the knowledge that they will continue to benefit from their stay after returning home. The three soothing programmes combine the power of the resort’s healing thermal waters with beautiful plantbased organic products from Altearah. Bio’s Emotive Cosmetics line.

Before each treatment, guests will have a wellbeing consultation with a skilled Naturopath to determine their current condition and their requirements throughout the programme. Each programme involves one Altearah. treatment a day, including classic massages, compression massages, body packs, foot baths and facial scrubs. The pampering does not end there, as all programmes are supplemented by additional sessions such as aqua gym lessons or individual bathing and floating cycles in the thermal waters. Additional treatment-specific services, such as yoga relaxation or personal training sessions, are also available. Every guest also receives a set of Altearah. products to take home with them, so they can continue to feel relaxed and revitalised long after leaving Grand Resort Bad Ragaz. The scents and specific products depend on which programme guests have experienced.

– We were travelling around Switzerland by train only and I don’t regret it for a minute. It’s really convenient and safe, given Swiss efficiency – faster than any car.

Bad Ragaz is the most famous thermal springs resort in Switzerland (which is not the same as a mineral springs resort, incidentally). It has a huge number of thermal water pools and an excellent medical center in which you can have any examination and get a doctor’s prescription. The spa impresses with its choice of procedures – from classical to exotic, and taken from Tibetan and Oriental practices. In the nearby neighborhood you can find the source, which, according to legend, was blessed by the appearance of the Virgin Mary – lots of pilgrims come here. This water is believed to have healing properties. The Bad Ragaz thermal water received a certificate of quality from the great doctor Paracelsus as early as the 16th century.

There are many restaurants in Bad Ragaz. For those not on a diet, it would be wise to visit them – one of the local chefs appears on the list of the fifty best chefs in the world. Considering his very young age, this is a formidable achievement. There are many cheese farms in the neighborhood where you can see how the cheese is made. I went to one and it turned out to be a very interesting process.

The thermal springs were so exciting that I couldn’t leave! Only when the cleaners began to sweep the floors did it become clear that this time of bliss had finished and we had to wait until the next day to return. I went to my room, wrapped myself up in a hot sheet, and gradually came the understanding that part of my problems has been washed away by this water, water which knows neither fear, nor envy, nor anger, nor hatred. Only bliss, comfort, health, love, peace …
