AVÈNE THERMAL SPRING WATER: UNIQUE WATER

The Avène impluvium is located in the heart of the Haut-Languedoc Regional Nature Park. A unique and unspoiled natural environment where every drop of rain travels for more than 50 years while being enriched in precious elements until it eventually becomes Avène Thermal Spring Water. Today, thanks to our researchers, we know that Avène Thermal Spring Water has a dual mineral and biological heritage which gives it this unique gift – the ability to soothe sensitive skin.

     

    The Avène Hydrotherapy Center

    Dedicated to dermatology and located just a stone’s throw away from the Source in the Haut-Languedoc Regional Natural Park, the hydrotherapy centre puts scientific thermalism to the test: linking thermal spring water and scientific research, and conducting treatments under medical supervision. Patients benefit from a personalised care programme and workshops led by an expert team that gives them the tools to make their daily lives easier.
