Treatment
Treatment with natural mineral water, oil and other natural agents, given as baths and showers.
Balneotherapy is one of the pillars of resort medicine: a natural agent acts on the body in water, at a set temperature and for a set time. In Naftalan the naftalan bath is the core of it, with mineral and iodine-bromine baths alongside.
How it works
The effect comes from three things together: the chemistry of the agent, the warmth of the water and hydrostatic pressure. That is why the temperature and the length of a session are not chosen casually — they are part of the procedure.
Its place in a course
Balneotherapy is not planned on its own but with physiotherapy, massage and movement therapy around it. The doctor builds the schedule so that two heat procedures do not fall on the same day.
