How and what is treated

The main therapeutic direction of Karlovy Vary is 13 bicarbonate-chloride-sulfate-sodium mineral springs, which differ in temperature and carbon dioxide content – 0.37-0.75 g / l. The remaining components are contained in approximately the same amount. The composition of water includes:

Due to the content of useful components, the springs of Karlovy Vary are among the most effective mineral waters in the world intended for drinking and balneotherapy. There are also various physiotherapy activities aimed at improving the health of patients.

Treatment with thermal mineral water

Drinking courses of Karlovy Vary thermal mineral waters are successfully used in the treatment of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. The rich chemical composition of water, which is obtained from 13 sources, has a beneficial effect not only on the stomach and intestines, but also on the entire body as a whole.

Hydrotherapy

External use of medicinal water or hydrotherapy for healing the body in Karlovy Vary is one of the most popular procedures. It is not only useful, but also pleasant – it relaxes the body and tones the skin. Often, patients are prescribed a Scottish shower or a Charcot shower – alternating hot and cold water. These procedures have a positive effect on the physical and psychological health of a person.

Aromatherapy and reflex massages

Popular methods aimed at obtaining relaxation and healing are aromatherapy and reflex (acupressure) massages. To perform the first, various essential oils are used in proportions selected for each patient individually. Acupressure or reflex massage is aimed at activating reflexogenic points, due to which certain organs or tissues are affected, pain is reduced, and fatigue is relieved. If you combine 2 types of massage – reflex and aromatherapy, you can achieve maximum efficiency from the procedure.

Heat therapy

Hydrotherapy procedures in Karlovy Vary are complemented by heat therapy. The technique of heat exposure on the human body helps to improve blood circulation, relieve pain in the joints, and relax. The most popular heat treatment procedures are dipping hands in heated paraffin, exposure to a biolamp, and mud compresses.

Magnetic therapy

The method of influencing the patient's body with constant or low-frequency magnetic fields is called magnetotherapy. This technique improves the functioning of internal organs, speeds up blood flow, relieves pain, improves immunity, and calms the nervous system. The therapeutic effect becomes noticeable after 3 magnetotherapy procedures.

CO2 gas shots

Carboxytherapy is a type of mesotherapy in which carbon dioxide is injected under the skin of the patient. This procedure accelerates blood circulation, restores metabolic processes, improves skin condition, and also removes toxins from the body.

Inhalations

For inhalations in Karlovy Vary, local healing water is used in combination with medicinal herbal decoctions and additional medicines. Inhalation of such steam has a positive effect on the respiratory system, helps to relieve inflammation, expectoration of mucus. This procedure is prescribed for allergies and diseases of the respiratory organs.

Lymphatic drainage

Lymphatic drainage is carried out to remove lymph and other excess fluid from the intercellular space of the body, which accumulates due to disturbances in the functioning of the lymphatic system. The slowdown in the movement of lymph in the body leads to general intoxication, the accumulation of toxins, and deterioration of the skin condition. Lymphatic drainage eliminates these problems – relieves swelling, reduces bags under the eyes and cellulite. This is a massage procedure that is carried out under the supervision of a physician manually or using a special apparatus.

Therapeutic mineral baths and masks

Mineral baths are a medical procedure aimed at improving blood circulation, kidney function and the cardiovascular system, restoring the body after protracted and chronic diseases. Water for this procedure is heated to a temperature of 35-40 degrees. Various medicines and herbal poisons, selected individually for the patient, are added to the healing mineral waters.
Masks with mineral water are famous for their excellent cosmetic effect: they moisturize, rejuvenate the skin, and even out the tone of the face. After this procedure, the skin becomes soft and supple.

What to look for when choosing

In order for the rest to be not only useful, but also effective, each tourist must carefully study all the offers and choose the best one. Especially if a trip to the Czech Republic is planned for the first time from Moscow or any other city in Russia. Each boarding house or sanatorium specializes in various types of healing and strengthening procedures, so pay attention to this. The second important point is the level of comfort and service.

The optimal treatment time is 21 days or more. This is due to the need to adapt the patient's body to new climatic conditions. After the second week of stay at the resort, the patient receives the maximum benefit from the procedures.

Prices are available to many. The only thing is that you will need to get to the place on your own. Transfer from the airport to the hotel is not always included in the price of the tour, so it is better to book this service in advance. We recommend the kiwitaxi service. You can pay in advance on the website online and no longer fuss at the airport and look for exchangers, which, as a rule, offer not the most favorable rate to pay for a taxi. Very convenient, comfortable and inexpensive.

Almost all offer tourists comfortable conditions. Experienced tourists are advised to give preference to those that have their own balneological center and have a convenient location in close proximity to the thermal spring. Do not forget about the contraindications and recommendations of doctors in the treatment of certain diseases.

For example, for the treatment of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, a balanced and dietary diet is very important, and to improve the condition of the musculoskeletal system, give preference to sanatoriums with a swimming pool, which are located on walking routes. Also, the right choice will help to make a study of the medical base, reviews of customers who have managed to visit it and are ready to share the results and impressions.

Peculiarities

All recreational facilities of the Czech resort can be divided into two main groups:

An invariable rule for all these institutions is the construction of a medical and recreational program based on the use of the beneficial properties of thermal springs. By the way, there is no shortage of health facilities in Karlovy Vary. There are several dozen of them, among which there are five-star, four-star and three-star establishments. But even if you came to Karlovy Vary only for a day, keep in mind that healing water sources are available to everyone. The most important thing to remember is that hot water springs have a laxative effect.

Indications

Sanatorium-and-spa treatment is aimed at improving the functioning of the digestive tract, as well as stabilizing metabolic processes in the body. Indications:

Diseases of the digestive tract:

Indications are also violations of metabolic processes:

Treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system is also carried out according to indications:

All wellness procedures and drinking courses must be carried out as prescribed by a doctor.

Contraindications

The blessed resort, famous for its mineral waters and therapeutic mud, unfortunately, is not suitable for everyone. There are a number of contraindications:

How to take thermal mineral water

Treatment is not complete without the use of mineral thermal water. Local springs have amazing healing properties, but this does not mean that water from them can be drunk in any quantity. There are certain rules and recommendations that must be followed in order to benefit from drinking, and not harm.

Rules for the use of thermal mineral water:

You need to drink water only as prescribed by a doctor, as it has a rich chemical composition. An excess of minerals can harm the body, especially if there are contraindications. The specialist should determine the dosage and the source from which the water is taken. Too much water can lead to malfunction of the internal organs, increased pressure, and other serious problems.
The healing properties of mineral waters are lost during transportation, so you need to drink at the very source. In addition, the medicinal effect of drinking is preserved only if the temperature at which the liquid comes to the surface is not violated.
Water from the springs is supplied to some hotels in Karlovy Vary, but it is not recommended to drink it all the time. Passing through the pipes, the liquid loses its medicinal characteristics, so you need to collect it directly from the source.

As a rule, people go to strengthen the body, to recover from diseases. Only those who carefully follow the doctor's prescriptions and adhere to the regime achieve this, so you should not miss visits to the source.

How does Karlovy Vary mineral water affect the body? Warm mineral water, once in the stomach, contributes to its expansion, smoothing and washing the folds. Mineral substances act on the mucous membranes of the body, normalize the production of gastric juice, and, as a result, help to improve the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract.

It also has a positive effect on:

On the 8-12th day of treatment, patients experience a “resort reaction” to changes in the composition of water and climatic conditions. It is expressed by a general deterioration in well-being. May be observed:

On the 2-3rd day (about 14 days after the start of treatment), the person's condition returns to normal, the effect of drinking mineral water becomes noticeable. For this reason, the recovery period in Karlovy Vary should be 3 weeks or more. At the end of the course, the patient's immunity increases, the physical and psychological state of health improves. Usually this effect persists for 12-18 months after the end of recovery.

Reviews

An analysis of the reviews shows that the vast majority of patients who have visited Karlovy Vary are satisfied with the result. Unanimously, everyone praises the life-giving water, arguing that it is worth coming here just for the sake of it. Many flattering words have been said about individual innovatory doctors who are mastering new methods of spa treatment, who are not formally related to the matter, but with all their intellectual and spiritual strength (Yu. Onisko, Saint Iris).

There are practically no claims to the nurses performing medical procedures, to the organization of good nutrition in most sanatoriums, to the quality of service and room maintenance. There are single complaints about the lack of elevators (san th Krivan), the scarcity of breakfasts (san th Humboldt Park), dishonest service in the restaurant (san th Colonnade).
In general, the resort deserves high praise from vacationers.
