The Caudalie® Vinotherapie Spa |
|
The Caudalie Vinotherapie® Spa is located just next to the Sources de Caudalie hotel-restaurant in the middle of the Château Smith Haut Lafitte, vineyards, near Bordeaux. The Spa offers an exclusive programme of treatments in a setting of unusual beauty.
These treatments are absolutely unique. They combine the virtues of naturally warm spring water taken from a depth of 540 metres underground, rich in minerals and oligo-elements, with vine and grape extracts. That latter have a high concentration of polyphenols, which help fight against free radicals, what are 80% responsible for ageing. Furthermore, these extracts strengthen blood vessels and enhance micro-circulation.
For each treatment, we use a Caudalie beauty care product containing grape polyphenols. Created in conjunction with Professor Vercauteren and his research team at the Bordeaux Faculty of Pharmacy, these products have been acclaimed by doctors and surgeons around the world thanks to their outstanding qualities.
Our treatments are administered by expert hands, and you will be prescribed just those treatments that suit you. A medical team is also available, on request, for our customers. |
