Italic Thermae. Sabina. Terme di Cretone.

Among the thermae in the Sabine territory, a true jewel of absolute purity hides within the hills, a refreshment and curative site neighboring the Natural Park riserva del Barco. Crystal clear sulphureous thermo mineral waters that offer Romans, and above all Sabines and foreign tourists with a passion for discovering Italy in all its nuances, a moment of paradisiac wonder. 
Water is freezing   (22-23° Celsius) with natural and constant draining of a stream, a brook. Perfect to tone up and get some refreshment during hot Italian summers. 

The contrast between the freshness of the large and deep swimming pools with artificial water falls, or the large kids swimming pool, and the warmth of the Sabine's stones in the poolside tournaments heated by the sun of the dog days  definetely helps blood circulation and smooths the skin. 

The closest busy street is kilometers away, beyond the parks borders, the stream and the olive tree groves of the first, in chronological terms, Italian PDO extra virgin oil.
The thermal centre combines to the centre for the cures a beauty farm, massage rooms and a cosmetics brand of products made of muds and sulfur waters.

That is  Terme di Cretone , where swimming in a cloud of thermal waters mirroring the blue of the sky, the green of the park and overlooking the Monti Lucretili.  

Not hard to believe that from the close ancient cities of Corniculum, Nomentum, Eretum, Sabine people used to go in search of some refreshment after a long working day or to wash away the summer heat with the kids, sometimes future emperors and kings of Ancient Rome, to the thermae of Cretone, probably a trendy and healing place for the high society of the time.
The healing and cosmetics characteristics of the thermo mineral sulfur waters of Cretone were well known in ancient times, when Sabines bathed in the springs and used the drinkable waters to fight winter diseases as a basis for suffumigation and ointmments. A tradition that has been refashioned over the centuries till reaching a synthesis with the modern cosmetics technologies: a brand of thermal products absolutely elengant to show in the most exclusive summer locations and at the gym to tone up and moisturize the skin. recreating the wonder of natural summer hydro-massage in the bathtub during winter time.

Terme di Cretone are ideal for those who love nature. Composed of two large and deep swimming pools with springboards, aquagym area and a kids swimming pool, grounds for team sports, gym, Spa, medical and cosmetics centre; a small 'piazza' serves as food court, ice-cream and crepes kiosks and 'bazaar' with clothings and delicious oil, wine and food products, and a small bookshop.
