Hand-picked 'Healing Hotels of the World' (HHoW) Specials
1. The Secret of a Long and Healthy Life: Grotta Giusti Natural Spa Resort, Italy
Longevity, which operates in the realm of predictive and preventative medicine, is a scientific approach to creating rules for a balanced lifestyle under all its aspects, whether psychological, nutritional, physical or climatic. Such integration thus represents the most complete prevention possible against disease.
The method, devised by Prof. Giovanni Scapagnini and the Longevity team at Grotta Giusti, coordinated by Dr Nicola Angelo Fortunati, foresees a multidisciplinary approach which starts with detailed diagnostic examinations, physiological and behavioural assessments and genetics tests in order to provide a comprehensive medical picture.
In accordance with the results, a nutraceutical and nutritional programme is then tailored to meet the patient’s specific needs, while the most suitable physical therapies and thermal treatments are decided. The thermal treatments – mud, balneotherapy and “grotta” (the thermal cave) – thanks to their ability to transmit warmth and trigger biological reparatory reactions in cells, thus helping the body’s defences against disease, embody the unique nature of the Grotta Giusti programme. “In particular, the anthrotherapy in the thermal cave takes advantage of a warm and humid microclimate which is ideal for a general stimulation of the entire organism” – underlines Dr Nicola Angelo Fortunati. At the end of the programme, a detailed final report is provided with detailed diagnoses and therapeutic advice to follow at home.

3. Drumming for Your Soul: Engel Spa & Resort, Italy
At Engel Spa & Resort, Italy, you are now able to feel the healing energy of rhythm and music. Drum therapy is a kind of music therapy which is focused on the experience of feelings, emotions and thoughts with the use of African Djembe drums...
Drum Therapy
The beat of drum is like the rhythm of earth, its heartbeat. The drum touches your heart and can help you rediscover deep bonds to nature. The shortest way from the soul to music is the drum; there is no instrument closer to heartbeat. Even today we can feel something deep in us, when we listen to drum beats.
Already Platon was convinced: “ Music and rhythm find their way to the most secret places of our soul” and he was probably right.
Physiotherapist Francesco Granata trusted the Greek philosopher and brought the African drums to South Tirol, where he now offers guests therapeutic drumming.
The deep, soothing drum sounds relax the listener as well as the player. Drumming allows the expression of strong feelings. Suppressed anger and rage can be worked off. Playing on the drum can solve physical tensions that are caused by mental issues, followed by calmness and joy.
The rhythmic play helps emotionally and socially maladjusted people to deal with tensions and feelings. They become more relaxed with themselves, their fellow human beings and their surroundings. The promoted attention has a positive effect on the communication behavior with others.
Drumming can help patients with restricted mobility to extend their motor abilities, to balance the two hemispheres and therefore increase body coordination.
Therapeutic drumming is used in many areas such as convalescence, coordination problems or nervous, anxious and depressive moods. At Wellnesshotel Engel it is used as personal or group therapy within the Health Weeks.
Cost: €55 for 40 minutes personal therapy. Price for group therapy varies according to number of people.
