The spring water used in all the spa treatments at Avene is reputed to have extraordinary healing powers. Its soothing property may be on account of its long filtering journey through the mountains before it emerges in the springs at Avene.
Quality of experience Three weeks is the recommended stay at the centre, and would no doubt have lowered my stress levels, and helped my eczema. Unfortunately, I had time for only a long weekend, but even that was long enough for the delightful setting to start working its magic. A three-week stint usually begins with a consultation with a dermatolgist, who prescribes a daily skincare regimen. Typically, this includes bathing and showering several times a day in the spring water.
Products Before my visit, my skincare regime was limited to aqueous cream, a basic moisturiser, but I'm now a happy convert to The Av¨¨ne range. Products contain minimal ingredients, making them suitable for the most sensitive skin.
