Tuscany’s La Corte Spa Wellness & Beauty, located a few miles from Florence, offers exclusive treatments devoted to the well-being of its guests. The treatments for the face and body utilize natural products of extremely high quality, with ingredients grown right on-site at the estate, such as grape extracts and olive oil.

A variety of holistic treatments found at the spa are used to improve the appearance of the body and relax the mind. Offerings include smoothing exfoliants for dry and sensitive skin; dermocosmetics or Mineral Suspensions using bioactive volcanic minerals; and thalassotherapy, a body treatment using fucus and laminaria (types of seaweed) that are directed at stimulating cellular metabolism, resulting in a slimming, anti-cellulite action.

La Corte uses natural and organic products, found on the property. OlivOil is a genuine beauty experience that quenches thirsty, dry skin, thanks to the natural oil gathered from around the estate. Vinotherapy uses substances found in grapes and grape seeds that, in a synergic approach, play an important role in bodily care and the treatment of skin blemishes, allowing for an invigorating skin treatment. The combination of Western and Eastern treatments guarantees quality and a superior sensorial experience.

Guests can choose from an array of massage techniques, including Swedish, Californian or Esalen massage; aesthetic shaping massage; physiotherapeutic massage; and a seventh chakra massage. Il Borro also has beauty amenities such as hair care, manicures and pedicures available to the guests.
