Summary-activities
History of Healing
The Spa was first formally opened in 1649 by two brothers, Cosmas and Damianos. Their generosity in offering treatment often without thought of reward gave rise to the name Anargyri without silver. They became known and loved locally for their selfless acts and affectionately known as saints
In the 19th century the waters were properly analysed and did indeed contain health-giving minerals
Now the new luxury spa will offer a variety of treatment rooms and therapies many involving the sulphur water which rises naturally nearby in this tranquil setting
Bathing for Health
For hundreds of years people have enjoyed the beneficial waters of Ayii Anargyri. Now there is the opportunity to experience the healing effects in a purpose-built spa with expert staff dedicated to your well-being.
How does it work? The buoyancy of the water and the temperature improve circulation. This combines with the chemical components in the water which are absorbed through the skin and enter the blood stream. The therapeutic effects of bathing in conjunction with the minerals work on body and mind and form the basis of bath therapy
Muscle tone, and circulation, benefit. Muscular pain and limited joint movement improve, and swollen joints can often be reduced. Practical experience proves the waters are helpful in treating rheumatic diseases, and chronic inflammations
Biochemically the effect of absorption of sulphur is still under discussion but practical results show that it has a good effect on interstitial complaints and rheumatic problems
Apart from the sulphur entering the system through the skin it is also inhaled. In degenerative joint diseases any sulphuric acid content in the joints decreases
There is a positive effect in case of cardiovascular diseases too since sulphur expands the coronary arteries, and improves the blood supply to the heart. What’s more, sulphur taken up into the walls of the veins helps reduce cholesterol problems.
The spring waters have also shown to be highly effective in treating skin problems like psoriasis or acne
Summary-features
Bar & Pool Bar
The Bar is a welcoming focal point for visitors. Cocktails and soft drinks are available accompanied by traditional snacks. The traditional fireplace, vaulted arch, and 300-year-old marble floor are something of a talking point among those gathering here.
In complete contrast, the modern pool with its own bar is an ideal spot to relax and shake off the day’s heat with a swim followed by a long drink. The garden setting is delightful
Wedding Vows
The tiny chapel of Ayii Anargyri stands in the grounds of the spa and for many represents the soul of the place. It dates to 1649 but like many historic religious sites it stands on an earlier stone-age settlement. Although it has obviously undergone renovation, the processional icons and deep stone walls bear witness to the devotional aspects of Cypriot village life.
There are few places more appropriate for couples to make their wedding vows or even, as many now like to do, reaffirm them. The picturesque setting, accommodation and catering make an unforgettable setting for that perfect day
