Its the said that even Hannibal, engaged in a bottle against the Romanarmy in a place at a very little distance from the natural basin where, just from the ancient times the salt was extracted, used the therapeutic properties of its SPA. The technique for recovery of mud baths, mineralized in contact with the original water, is very old, since just from the ancient times we know about the therapeutic properties. Today the original water is used together with the mud baths, and it comes from the tusks where there has been the precipitation of sodium chlorure. Not very limpid and of a light odour of hydrogen sulphate, they have an elevated natural radioactivity, they are rich of iodine, bromine and above all chlorure.

The SPA in Margherita di Savoia, situated face to the sea and coasted along by a big beach, are among the most modern and equipped of Europe. Besides the traditional departments for inhalation cares, the mud bathing-theraphy and the different types of manual and underwater massages, the customers can take advantage from the very modern centre for renogene deafness, for the breathing and motory rehabilitation, of departments for Bronchuspneumology, for Gynecology, for Aesthetic Medicine and for a Gym, all directed by specialized doctors and highly qualified staff.
