Wellness Tradition in St. Moritz
A Dive into History
The bathing tradition of St. Moritz goes back more than 3,500 years, and the healing power of the iron-rich water from the Mauritius spring is still used today. The early inhabitants of the Engadin already knew about the positive properties of this water in the summer or autumn of 1411 BC.
Wellness in the Grand Hotels
The wellness areas and spas of the St. Moritz grand hotels offer many ways to experience the healing power of water. From infinity pools with Alpine views and Kneipp foot paths to immune-boosting steam baths – this is a place of harmony for body and mind. Modern wellness knowledge, tailored massages and treatments by spa specialists bring fresh energy and joie de vivre.
Ovaverva, which means “living water”, offers a wide range of bathing, from outdoor pools to a 25-metre pool. There is water fun for children too, while the in-house spa promises relaxation with massages and saunas.
The MTZ Heilbad offers distinctive forms of therapy, medical wellness and physiotherapy as well as invigorating carbonated mineral baths.
