The properties of oil as a elixir of youth and of great dining are slowly beginning to be rediscovered and wisely united.
Granted, the gastronomy of natural cosmetics got there first, but oh well.
You can try them out on your own skin and your own nutrition at Brindisi, where the Relais La Fontanina (between Ostuni and Ceglie Messapica) has made the extra virgin olive oil produced from its very own olives one of the strong points not only of its restaurant but also of its health spa.
Different types of treatments and massages are available to revitalize any type of skin.
One of the these options is getting wrapped in olive oil and flakes of natural marine salt, a nutritious and hydrating body treatment.
