In the heart of the Swiss Alps, Spa Nescens promotes
lifestyle change to halt father time in his tracks
T
here are a few things that make
Spa Nescens, near the peak
of the Swiss Alps, so special.
The people will tell you it's their focus
on scientific wellness advice, along with
promoting anti-ageing through better
living. It's all true. Their ethos is a life lived
with good health and joy is longer.
The Victoria-Jungfrau Grand Hotel
in Interlaken, home of the Spa Nescens,
has been through a few incarnations. It
was once a hotspot for royals and writers
in Belle Époque Europe of the early
1900s; hosted the rich and famous in
the second half of the 20th Century and
changed again when it recently added an
enormous 5,500m2 spa, making it one of
the largest and most lavish in Europe.
On arrival, a team of wellness advisors,
dieticians and technicians get to work
on your full-body analysis, where
they measure water, protein,
muscle and fat levels. Then
their team of experts
offer a full physiological,
osteopathic and
nutritional assessment.
Their advice for living
longer is to live better, which may not be
exactly what you think. They stress good
food and the occasional drink is part of
living a joyful life and, as luck would have
it, these are all on hand.
There are several Better Ageing
programmes on offer, all designed to
redress imbalances (like stress and fatigue)
that can speed up ageing process . Most
laudable is their aim to help guests make
the lifestyle changes they'll be able to
continue at back at home.
The flight to Basel is around 90 minutes,
then it's another incredibly beautiful hour
by train up to Interlaken. It makes the
whole trip achievable for a weekend of
good living and a return journey armed
with the know- how to maintain wellness
for every day of your life .
