Unique characteristics of thermal healing mineral water from Turčianske Teplice

Our healing springs were declared healing thermal waters pursuant to act No. 538/2005 on natural healing waters, natural treatment spas, spa localities and natural mineral waters. Thermal healing mineral water has a wide spectre of proved healing effects (on musculoskeletal diseases, neurological, urological, digestive, gynaecological, oncological and occupational diseases) thanks to a high content of mineral substances (up to 1,524 mg/l). Mineral water with overall content of dissolved mineral substances over 1,000 mg/l* is classified as healing water. Thermal healing mineral water is used for baths of the whole body or individual body parts, for water drinking therapies with certain types of diseases. Thermal healing mineral water helps improve blood and lymph circulation. The water pressure facilitates exercise and movement in water. The surface temperature of your body increases in response to temperature of the thermal mineral water. That's the primary physical reaction. The secondary reaction involves nervous, cardiovascular, respiratory and endocrine system, as well as immunity system. Chemical effect of the mineral water is important, too, as mineral substances penetrate into skin and deeper during a bath and afterwards, too. Such baths decrease blood pressure, help dilate veins and have an overall relaxation and calming effect. Temperature of mineral baths is usually 34°- 38°C (in exceptional cases up to 40°C).

Richly mineralised (sulphurs, bicarbonates, calcium, magnesium, iron, etc.) thermal water from Turčianske Teplice has provable healing effects on musculoskeletal diseases, urological, nervous and gynaecological diseases.
