thermal spa

Warm mineral pool

A thermal spa is a facility built around naturally heated mineral water, offering bathing and therapeutic treatments.

The water emerges from geothermal sources, often rich in minerals believed to have healing properties.

Visitors soak in pools or baths fed by hot springs: We spent the afternoon at a thermal spa in Iceland.

Distinguished from ordinary spas by the natural heat source.
