Bath cycles for arthrorheumatic diseases
Description

Cycle of 12 baths

Specific baths for the relief of pain caused by arthrorheumatic diseases are treatments that use hot thermal water to reduce inflammation in joints affected by rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. Soaking in the hot water reduces joint inflammation, resulting in both improved joint mobility and the relaxation of soft tissue around the joints, also optimizing joint mobility. Thermal baths are precisely designed to provide a relaxing effect on the body, reducing stress and muscle tension; this promotes a state of overall well-being, relieving symptoms associated with joint pain and stiffness. These programs-aimed at depotentiating the effects of arthro-rheumatic diseases-accelerate the recovery process for those who have suffered a muscle and joint injury, promoting the restoration of muscle function and strength.

Cycles of hydrophangobalneotherapy
Description

This course of spa treatment includes: gastroenterological examination, 6 hepatic mud baths, 6 carbogas baths, and 12 hydropinic treatments

Hydrophangobalneotherapy programs have positive and indirect effects on metabolism, as the planned treatments promote general relaxation of the person and relieve stress. The latter factor can, in fact, negatively affect gastrointestinal function, and through these programs, a general state of well-being can be achieved that also optimizes and interests digestive health. In addition, exposure to mud and thermal water stimulates the immune system, which-if it is in excellent health-can help maintain a proper balance in the intestinal microbiota and protect the gastrointestinal tract from infection and inflammation.

Cycles of hydropinic cures
Description

This course of spa treatment, for diseases of the gastroenteric system, is structured into 12 services

Hydropinic cures, as a spa treatment program, involve the intake of therapeutic mineral waters. These, characterized by specific chemical compositions, provide benefits on the gastroenterological system, because the ingestion of mineral water stimulates the production of gastric juices and improves digestion. Sulfate-alkaline waters, in particular, are known for their ability to promote intestinal motility and relieve disorders such as constipation and dyspepsia. Consumption of thermal water also helps to balance intestinal flora, reducing the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria. This course of spa cures proves useful in chronic gastrointestinal disorders, as a balanced intestinal flora is crucial in the digestive process and nutrient absorption. Cycles of hydropinic cures also extend their benefits in improving the general hydration of the body.

Cycles of mud-balneotherapy treatments
Description

Cycle of 12 mud baths and 12 therapeutic baths

Fango-balneotherapy programs generate relief from muscle pain and reduce inflammation and to optimize joint mobility. In fact, for example, the heat generated by thermal mud penetrates into muscle and joint tissues, minimizing pain caused by muscle tension, contractures and inflammation. In addition, the anti-inflammatory properties of thermal mud reduce inflammation in joints and muscle tissues, relieving pain associated with conditions such as: rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and sports injuries.
These programs are precisely designed to promote muscle and joint relaxation, resulting in improvements in mobility.

Integrated cycles of care of controlled pulmonary ventilation
Description

This course of spa care includes: bronchopneumological examination, 12 medicated and non-medicated pulmonary ventilations, 12 aerosols, 6 inhalations or nebulizations, to be effected every other day

This integrated course of care includes a series of treatments that provide respiratory benefits, designed for those suffering from specific conditions, such as: asthma, chronic bronchitis, cystic fibrosis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Controlled pulmonary ventilation is a mechanism that promotes inhalation with positive pressure directly to the airways. Depending on the treatment administered by ventilation, thermal principals or drugs can reach the more peripheral airways.

Mud bath therapy for circulation
Description

Cycle of 12 baths + 12 baths or showers

Treatments that combine thermal mud and annexation showers promote blood circulation, as the heat of the mud dilates blood vessels, while the annexation shower stimulates circulation, reducing swelling situations and providing the right nutrients to muscle and joint tissues. These treatments are designed for individuals suffering from muscle or joint stiffness, because they are solutions that promote muscle relaxation, benefiting joint flexibility and mobility. Such treatments offer, therefore, relief from muscle and joint pain, since the heat of the thermal mud penetrates deep tissues, relieving situations of muscle tension and reducing inflammation.

Pulmonary inhalation treatment cycles
Description

Cycle of 24 benefits

Lung cures, also known as respiratory therapies, use the beneficial properties of air, water and the thermal environment to optimize an individual's respiratory function, reduce inflammation and alleviate the symptoms of respiratory diseases. These thermal spa programs complement standard medical treatment to improve the quality of life of people with lung diseases as quickly as possible. An example of the treatments and therapeutic modalities that structure a pulmonary spa program are inhalations, which use vapors to improve upper and lower airway function, reduce inflammation, disinfect the airways and facilitate mucus clearance. In addition, cyclic thermal inhalations are responsible for improving overall lung function, as they help to increase lung capacity and ventilation as well as improve physical endurance.

Rectal showers (12 showers)
Description

This course of spa treatment is structured in 12 showers

Another therapeutic approach structured in spa treatment, specifically in 12-treatment cycles, is rectal showers. This cycle involves the introduction of water through the rectum to stimulate the intestinal tract. Rectal showers can have a detoxifying effect, helping to remove accumulated toxins and improve colon motility. Through the flow of water, the release of harmful substances is encouraged, promoting a feeling of lightness and well-being. In addition, this course of spa treatment is effective for people with irritable bowel syndrome, chronic constipation and other gastrointestinal conditions. A cycle of 12 rectal showers can help reduce inflammation and improve bowel function, contributing to regular bowel transit.

Skin health
Description

Skin health programmes are designed to improve the appearance of the skin through a combination of spa treatments and specialist therapies. To improve the appearance and health of the skin, a range of dermatological and aesthetic treatments are available as part of these programmes. From a dermatological perspective, for instance, mud therapy exfoliates, moisturises and regenerates the skin through the application of thermal mud, which contains minerals and trace elements. From an aesthetic perspective, on the other hand, treatments such as peelings, massages and facial masks reduce the appearance of wrinkles and leave the skin with a radiant glow.

Stoves or caves
Description

Cycle of 12 sessions

Thermal stoves and caves are environments that, thanks to the penetrating heat, help relax muscles and relieve tension, giving a feeling of relief from symptoms related to joint pain, muscle contractures and inflammation. Exposure to heat from thermal stoves promotes improved blood circulation; this situation reduces swelling and provides essential nutrients to muscle and joint tissues, speeding healing and recovery from musculoskeletal contractures and injuries. In addition, exposing the body to the heat given off by the thermal stoves goes a long way toward improving joint flexibility and mobility for people suffering from muscle or joint stiffness.

Thermal baths for dermatological diseases
Description

Cycle of 12 baths

Programs that focus on the health of the skin are designed to improve its appearance through a combination of spa treatments and specialized therapies. A variety of dermatological treatments such as thermal baths intervene to improve the appearance and health of the skin. These can help reduce the inflammation and irritation associated with atopic dermatitis; the very moisturizing properties of thermal water improve the compromised skin barrier and reduce skin dryness. In addition, thermal baths are also indicated to alleviate the symptomatology of psoriasis, thanks to the thermal waters which-being rich in minerals and/or sulfides help to decrease inflammation, exfoliate the skin and improve its hydration, so as to minimize the symptoms associated with psoriasis. Some waters contain sulfur, known for its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. For this very reason, thermal baths involving sulfur can help reduce the inflammation associated with acne.
