Benessere360

Benessere360 is a massage studio on Via Serrano in Turin, Piedmont. Unlike the larger spas in the city, it focuses on individual bodywork sessions rather than a pool and sauna circuit, and the standard session is reported as one hour per massage. The treatment menu includes holistic massage, Swedish massage, decontracting massage, anti-cellulite massage and ayurvedic massage. Swedish massage is the usual starting point for first-time visitors, using long, flowing strokes to ease general tension. Decontracting massage is firmer and targets muscle knots in the back, neck and shoulders, which suits travellers carrying stiffness from long journeys or days of walking. Holistic massage blends techniques with attention to overall relaxation, while anti-cellulite massage is a more vigorous cosmetic treatment. Ayurvedic massage draws on the Indian Ayurvedic tradition, which uses oil and rhythmic strokes; it is the nearest the studio comes to a non-Western tradition, and its details should be confirmed with the studio before booking. Information on therapist training, certifications and reputation has not been published in the sources available, so none is claimed, and visitors may wish to ask about qualifications when reserving. Opening hours are reported as Monday to Saturday from 9:30AM to 8:30PM, with Sunday afternoons also reported, but these should be confirmed. Prices are available on request. As a small studio, the normal booking norm is to reserve by phone or message in advance rather than turn up unannounced, since each session occupies a therapist for a full hour. Evening slots after sightseeing tend to be in demand. The studio does not offer the thermal pools or saunas found in larger centres, so a visit is best suited to travellers who want focused bodywork. Visitors should mention any injuries, allergies to oils, pregnancy or medical conditions when booking so the therapist can adapt the session.
