Thermal springs in Brazil were an important place for a new education of the body in the beginning of the 20th century. Whether they were within a medical discourse prescribing escape towards nature or new traveling destinations, they expressed nature domesticated by human hands and a counterpoint to urban life. Among healings, regenerations and amusements, this article proposes a trip amidst nature in the thermal springs of Serra Negra and Águas de Lindoia in the 1930s and 1940s, which were their days of glory. It aims at understanding how these thermal springs operated a determined and specific type of education in the bodies of their visito rs, with their many indications, prescriptions and possibilities. The sources include travel guides, medical journals and conference proceedings addressing the subject of thermal springs.
