The Vals-les-Bains thermal bath pledge
“A getaway, a change of pace, a stay in the country – for some people with chronic conditions, these can be powerful curative means, especially when complimented by the calm of the sky, the coolness of the water, the softness of the shadows, and the shelter of the surrounding mountains. This is certainly a reality at Vals-les-Bains thermal baths.“ Dr Lafosse, 1882
