The Waters of Michelangelo Just an hour from the center of Rome, the Fiuggi springs are famous for the cure and prevention of stones, gout, urinary infections and hepatitis infections. The cure consists of drinking the water, best directly from one of the two fountains: The Fonte Anticolana and The Fonte Bonifacio VIII, whose waters treated Pope Bonifacio VIII and Michelangelo. Fiuggi is the site of a health spa, the Centro Benessere next to the splendid Grand Hotel, with all its allure of 1913, when it was built at the center of a hilltop park. The Centro Benessere offers beauty treatments (new lifts, no-scalpel lifting, and new body treatments) as well as health cures based on Naturopatia, or natural therapy such as Bach's flower essences. www.hotelinfoplus.com/fiuggi/palazzodellafon.htm
