Neurological Diseases 

(Group VI) 

In particular, we use one of nature's greatest gifts - the unique sulphur-iron peat - to treat neurological diseases. It can effectively help patients affected by specific neurological diseases, such as polyneuropathy. Other treatments, such as the carbon dioxide bath, also generously promote blood circulation in the microscopic blood vessels in the acral (peripheral) parts of the body. These blood vessels are crucial for the nourishment and regeneration of the tiny nerve endings that are affected in polyneuropathy. Patients are thus gradually relieved of the uncomfortable tingling and burning sensation, and the impaired or lost sensitivity and mobility of the fingers and toes is restored. 

The effect of natural healing resources is enhanced by exercises with experienced physiotherapists who use special facilitation techniques to strengthen weakened or paralyzed muscles. 

Another ailment that spa treatment can alleviate are root syndromes. These most commonly manifest with spinal pain and shooting pain into the extremities, usually due to a prolapsed intervertebral disc. Patients are relieved of pain by the effects of physical therapy, such as various types of electrotherapy currents, distance electrotherapy, and the like. Spa treatment is based on the experience of highly qualified physiotherapists who use manual traction and other myoskeletal medicine techniques to reduce the pressure on the affected nerve root. 


Neurological diseases - indication groups

An established natural medicinal source: Natural mineral sulphur water - group B (sulphur), natural mineral iodine water, natural mineral thermal water warm to hot (above 35 °C), natural mineral radon water, natural mineral bicarbonate-calcium water2), natural mineral carbonate water for indications VI/2, VI/3,VI/6, VI/8, VI/9, VI/11 (condition of CO2 content in the bath at least 1000 mg/l), natural peloid from local source for indications VI/2, VI/3, VI/9, VI/10, VI/11.
Examination: specialist neurological examination including laboratory and functional tests, for radicular syndromes also X-ray examination (X-ray) or other imaging method of the relevant part of the spine/image description, anatomical and functional description/ not older than 6 months, for cervicocranial and cervicobrachial syndromes also electrocardiography (ECG).

VI/2 - Polyneuropathy with paretic manifestations.
VI/3 - Root syndromes with irritation-loss  syndrome.
VI/8 - Neuromuscular diseases primary, secondary and degenerative. 
VI/9 - Syringomyelia with paretic manifestations.
VI/10 - Cerebral palsy with the possibility of independent mobility and without significant psychiatric changes, assuming maintenance of work ability or full independence and self-sufficiency.
VI/11 - Parkinson's disease. (Does not apply to Parkinson's syndrome and secondary extrapyramidal syndrome when treated with psychopharmaceuticals.)
