Lefay Lago di Garda

Discovery is a 3-night introduction to the Lefay SPA Method, designed for first-time visitors who want to experience the approach before committing to a longer, condition-specific programme. It offers a compressed version of the method’s core elements: diagnosis, treatment, energy rebalancing, and prescriptive nutrition.

The stay includes full board with the Lefay SPA Menu at La Limonaia, an initial examination to assess energy levels, and personalised phytotherapy. Guests receive a Derma di Luce energy facial massage, a personalised energy body massage, a cryotherapy session, and a meridian-stretching class. A final examination provides targeted maintenance recommendations for after departure. Entrance to the 3,800 sqm Lefay SPA World — with its pools, saunas, and relaxation areas — is included throughout.

Letting Go is a 3-night programme built around the Classical Chinese Medicine concept of Qi stagnation: the idea that unprocessed thoughts and relentless daily stimuli can block the flow of vital energy, pulling a person away from their authentic self. The programme’s goal is to release those inner barriers and restore presence and self-confidence.

The stay opens with an introduction and personalised phytotherapy, then moves through breath training in the therapeutic energy garden, a guided foraging walk with cooking class focused on mindful nutrition, and a guided outdoor excursion. Bodywork includes a BIO energy scrub, an emotional energy massage, and Water Shiatsu — a treatment performed in warm water to encourage somatic and emotional release. A final examination consolidates the changes and sets maintenance goals for daily life.

The Longevity programme draws on the Classical Chinese Medicine concept of Yang Sheng — literally “nourishing life” — which holds that ageing can be slowed by proactively cultivating the body’s reserves of energy, flexibility, and mental clarity. It is designed for guests who want to assess their current baseline and build sustainable habits before lifestyle-driven decline sets in.

The stay begins with a medical energy assessment, intestinal check-up, nutritional consultation with a personalised diet, and an osteopathic/postural evaluation. Treatments combine moxibustion, acupuncture, and tuina with targeted facial care, cryotherapy, and NanoVi cellular repair. The active dimension includes postural training, anti-stress breathing, Qi Gong, and guided walks in the therapeutic energy garden. Follow-up counselling after departure helps sustain the changes initiated during the stay.

Beauty of Body and Mind approaches aesthetics through the lens of Classical Chinese Medicine, which links skin quality and visible ageing to the state of the nervous system and internal energy balance. The premise is that lasting dermo-aesthetic results require addressing the underlying energetic condition, not only the surface.

The programme includes a medical energy assessment and a face/body beauty consultation, followed by a sequence of treatments: facial cleansing, the Derma di Luce energy facial, Gua Sha aculifting, Massaggio di Giada (jade massage), and specific tuina. Cryotherapy and NanoVi sessions support tissue repair and cellular vitality. Complementary practices include moxibustion, foot reflexology, Fit & Face training — a movement protocol targeting facial and postural tone — and Qi Gong in the therapeutic garden.

The Fitness programme addresses posture, muscle tone, joint flexibility, and accumulated physical tension. It is built for guests who are physically active but dealing with imbalances, stiffness, or chronic tension patterns — as well as those looking to rebuild a structured movement practice after a sedentary period.

The programme opens with a medical energy assessment and osteopathic/craniosacral evaluation to identify postural misalignments and tension patterns. Treatments include tuina focused on postural correction, acupuncture, moxibustion, and reflexology, with cryotherapy and NanoVi sessions supporting muscular recovery. The active component is central: personal training on the outdoor Sky Fitness Path — an 11-station trail in the resort’s park designed to improve elasticity — and meridian stretching to release tension along the energy lines.

The Weight Loss programme takes a behavioural and metabolic approach rather than a restrictive-diet model. It begins with a medical energy examination, intestinal check-up, and a nutritional consultation that produces a personalised eating plan. The dietary guidance follows Lefay’s SPA Menu philosophy: foods are chosen for their nutritional value and their energetic properties in Classical Chinese Medicine, with minimal seasoning and alternative low-glycaemic sugars.

Therapeutic interventions include tuina L’Armonia, moxibustion, acupuncture, draining or anti-cellulite massage, cryotherapy, and NanoVi sessions. Movement is integral: personal training sessions and meridian stretching help rebuild an active relationship with the body. The aim is to initiate measurable fat loss during the stay while equipping guests with nutritional awareness and movement habits they can sustain at home.

The Detox programme is designed to support the body’s natural elimination processes and restore acid–base balance after periods of excess, sedentary living, or environmental exposure. It opens with a medical energy examination, intestinal check-up, and nutritional consultation, from which a personalised detox diet is prescribed and served at La Limonaia throughout the stay.

The treatment protocol combines energy body scrub, phyto-aromatic mud wraps, specific tuina, moxibustion, and acupuncture with detox-focused cupping massage, draining energy massage, cryotherapy, and NanoVi cellular repair. Qi Gong, meridian stretching, and guided nature sessions in the 11-hectare park complement the clinical work. The programme is available in 3, 5, and 7-night formats, with longer stays allowing deeper dietary and therapeutic intervention.

This programme focuses on the relationship between intestinal health and immune function. It begins with a medical energy examination and an intestinal check-up to assess digestive and immune markers, followed by a nutritional consultation that produces a personalised dietary plan. The dietary component is central: specific foods are selected for their properties under both Western nutritional science and Classical Chinese Medicine principles.

Treatments include acupuncture, moxibustion, and tuina targeted at digestive and immune meridians, alongside detoxifying cupping massage, cryotherapy, and NanoVi cellular repair sessions. Energy-rebalancing practices such as Qi Gong and meridian stretching are combined with guided nature immersion in the resort’s therapeutic garden. The programme is suited to guests dealing with recurring infections, digestive irregularities, food sensitivities, or post-illness fatigue.

The Sleep programme targets insomnia and disrupted sleep patterns. In Classical Chinese Medicine, sleep disturbances signal an energy imbalance with roots in both physical causes — hormonal shifts, digestive issues, physical overactivity — and mental ones, particularly stress and intellectual hyperactivity. The treatments work on the specific energy lines and acupuncture points associated with sleep regulation.

The programme includes an initial medical examination, a dedicated sleep check-up, and personalised phytotherapy. Therapeutic interventions combine acupuncture, moxibustion, and targeted energy massages designed to calm the nervous system, alongside foot reflexology, Qi Gong, cryotherapy, and NanoVi sessions. The objective is to address the underlying energy imbalance rather than merely manage symptoms, helping the body re-establish its natural sleep rhythm.

The Antistress programme addresses prolonged stress and its cumulative effects on the body. In Classical Chinese Medicine, sustained external pressure disrupts the exchange between outer stimuli and the inner emotional sphere, draining what Lefay’s practitioners call “original energy.” The programme’s Italian name, Il Recupero dell’Energia Originale, reflects this aim: to restore the body’s capacity to self-regulate.

It begins with a medical energy examination and a Psycho-Physiological Stress Test that quantifies autonomic nervous system activity through heart-rate variability monitoring. Based on the results, the team prescribes a combination of acupuncture, moxibustion, anti-stress tuina, energy body and head massages, cryotherapy, and NanoVi cellular repair sessions. Physical practices — Qi Gong and meridian stretching — are woven in throughout. ANS monitoring continues across the stay, so adjustments can be made in real time.
