My treatment programme includes a Medical Consultation but Im healthy so why do I need this?
Many Spa and Thalassotherapy programmes include a ‘medical consultation’ – this is generally a fairly brief check-up to ensure that you are in general good health as there are some treatments that should not be taken if you are suffering from certain medical conditions such as high blood pressure. The medical consultation will also give you the option of explaining what you would like to get out of your treatment programme, so that the doctor can tailor the programme for your particular requirements. At most of the French Thalassotherapy Centres the medical consultation is not included in the price of your stay, and will be paid for locally (the cost is usually around £20). For these centres, if you do not wish to have the medical consultation, it is necessary to bring a letter from your doctor at home confirming that you are in good health.

At resorts where the emphasis is on beauty and relaxation, the consultation may be replaced by a health questionnaire, and the spa reception will arrange
