Roman Thermal Circuit
In the Thermae of Ancient Rome, herbal cures were a common and treasured ritual. Medicines, body care ointments and essential oils were obtained from medicinal and fragrant herbs, which were “diffused” for inhalation cures, useful especially against seasonal ailments.
Today, this ancient wellness is brought back to life intact at Thermae Santa Agnese, through a pleasant journey that begins in the HERBARIUM, a gentle sauna at a mild temperature of 60°C and low humidity in which the therapeutic properties of the herbs are diffused. It then continues with a stop in the FRIGIDARIUM, where an ice bath and hot/cold showers will provide you with a strong and pleasant regenerating feeling.
HERBARIUM
Biosauna with herbs
A “gentle” sauna, at a mild temperature of 60°C and low humidity: 50%, in which the therapeutic properties of herbs from the ancient Casentinesi forests are diffused.
An ideal respite that clears the respiratory tract, tones the skin, detoxifies the body, relieves muscle tension and reduces stress.

FRIGIDARIUM
cold room
This was the part of the ancient Thermae where baths in cold water could be taken and were entered immediately after leaving the warmer rooms. It consisted of round or rectangular pools in which, in some cases, ice was added. This magical place was entered after the sauna, to give the body the proper thermal shock provoking a strong regenerative action. A practice that has always been performed in the Nordic countries as well.
