Capri Beauty Farm Spa

At nearly 11,000 square feet, the spa at the Capri Palace, famous for its so-called Leg School, is the island’s largest. It offers a huge variety of treatments, ranging from facials and thalassotherapy to chemical peels and Ayurvedic and Shiatsu massages. Vascular problems in the lower limbs, including venous and lymphatic return, are addressed at the Leg School through medicated mud and bandages as well as with Kneipp water treatments. Part serious old-world medi-spa, the Beauty Farm is headed by Dr. Francesco Canonaco, who pioneered many of the leg therapies and also offers checkups, blood tests, electrocardiograms and nutrition consultations.
