Weight bath

As a result of the aging process, the gap decreases in the joints, so the joint surfaces are closer to each other, causing painful abrasion.

During the treatment of the weight bath, the joints are “dissected” so that the joint surfaces are removed from each other, reducing the complaints. Because the traction is carried out in water, it provides a pleasurable experience on the one hand, and on the other hand it lessens the treated parts of the body. The weight bath is made in medicinal water, so during a treatment we can enjoy the benefits of both the weight bath and the medicinal water. During treatment, the patient is suspended in the water under his/her neck and arm. Due to the weight of the body as well as the pulling force of the water, longitudinal elongation in the spine is created, releasing the compressed nerve fibers, reducing the pressure on the discs, so that the disc and the protuberances can be effectively cured. The lock of the joints, the shrinkage of the muscles and the tendons can be cured by this method, as well as the rehabilitation can be successful after some muscle, tendon or joint surgeries. The use of weights increases the efficiency of the procedure, but it does not burden the patient due to the buoyancy of the water.
It is contra-indicated for acute inflammation of the joints, osteoporosis, and post-operative 6 weeks after spinal stabilization surgery.

Carbonated Bath

As a result of this treatment, the superficial veins expand, resulting in increased blood flow to the skin and in muscles. By increasing the blood flow, it changes the body’s blood distribution, which reduces the heart’s load and thus improves its own blood supply.

Reduces systolic blood pressure. It can have a good effect on chronic venous diseases, as it has a beneficial effect on venous capacity and venous backflow.

Underwater water jets (tangentor)

The patient is immersed in body-temperature or hotter water. The operator uses a jet of water to massage the body surface: it stimulates muscles and tissues that improve blood flow and increase the metabolism.

Tangentor treatment relaxes the tense abdominal and connective tissues and improves peripheral blood and lymph circulation. It relaxes tight muscles, can be used for joint injuries, post-operative and condition correction.

 

 

 

Underwater group gymnastics

Compared to the normal gymnastics, its great advantage that the lifting force of the water greatly reduces the stresses of the joints.

The hydrostatic pressure of the water and the fact that it completely surrounds the joints, thereby consolidating them, relieving the muscles and tendons. So exercises are easier to do in the water and the patient can perform exercises that he/she would not be able to do on the ground. It gives the patient a sense of success, the patient gets his/her vim back, the patient gains strength of will to fight and handle the disease.

It can be used successfully for any disease where it is difficult and painful to move. Excellent for muscle and joint maintenance and regeneration.

Moving the locked joints in the water is easier and painless!

On weekdays, physiotherapists coordinate the sessions for those arriving by a referral. On weekends, only therapeutic group water gymnastics are performed, with the lead of a physiotherapist.

The underwater group gymnastics is held in the horseshoe-shaped, covered medical physiotherapy pool.

 

Mud packs

The healing power of sludge was already known and applied in antiquity. In our bath we use sludge from Hévíz in the form of a pack, it is a sulphur and radium containing peat sludge.

The warming effect of the sludge is similar to the thermal water, but it is more intense. The heat expands the blood vessels, accelerates the circulation, which leads to the acceleration of metabolism, which helps and accelerates the cleansing of harmful substances and crystals in the joints. Sludge treatment therefore plays an important role in detoxification processes as well. Another important ingredient of herbal remedy is the absorption of minerals.

It is used mainly for degenerative, obstructive musculoskeletal problems and rehabilitation after injuries and after surgery, and it also relieves muscle spasms.

However, in the case of chronic inflammatory joint diseases, mud packs can only be used when the patient’s joints are not inflamed.

A layer of 1-2 cm thick sludge cooled down to 40-42 ° C is placed on the body part to be treated and it is covered with plastic foil and warm blanket. After treatment, 30 minutes of relaxation is recommended, during the rest period it is not recommended to take a sauna or to take bath in medicinal water.
