In the heart of Tuscany there is one of the oldest thermal centers - Montecatini Terme.
The four Thermal Baths of Montecatini are Leopoldina, Tettuccio, Regina and Rinfresco may offer you treatment of major diseases.
The waters of Montecatini are located at a depth of 60-80 meters known as alkaline saline-sulfate waters, containing mostly sodium and magnesium chlorides and sulfates, with lesser amounts of I, Br, Li, Ca, K, Si, phosphates, and sulfur.
The water comes to the surface, full of mineral salts and precious elements, pure and ready to be drunk. There’re three types of water:
-Strong: Leopoldina (solid residue at 180° C: 19.2 g / l)
- Medium: Regina (s.r. 18.4 g /l)
- Weak: Rinfresco and Tettuccio (s.r. 4.06-10.6 g/l )
The Leopoldina and Rinfresco waters are also applied in mud (pelotherapy) and bathing (balneotherapy) treatments, while Leopoldina is used for inhalation therapy.
