THE HISTORY OF THERMAL WATER
The history of thermal water of Baile Felix
The miraculous effects of the thermal water of Baile Felix are known since the time of the Roman Empire. Tradition claims that, around the year 1095, King Ladislaus, traveling in these lands, would have found the thermal springs with miraculous effects.
The most ancient testimony of the existence of these baths dates back to 1221, in the time the Hevius de Magno-Varadina Abbey, which survived in these places until the Turks era. One of the first pools built hundreds of years ago may be still seen nowadays. A thriving resort developed around the first thermal spring over time, which attracted tourists from all corners of Europe.
In recognition of the therapeutic qualities, at the world exhibition in Paris of 1896, the waters from this resort were awarded a gold medal and an honor diploma.
BENEFITS OF THERMAL WATER
Benefits of thermal waters in the resort
Baile Felix have a unique bio climate, with a perfectly balanced humidity, which induces the human body a state of relaxation and rejuvenation. Even in the warm season you can feel some form of breeze generated by the influence of the winds coming from the Austrian Alps, bringing along oceanic currents.
The breeze activates heat absorption mechanisms and enhance the effects of thermal water. Unique in the world, the thermal waters of Baile Felix are the most appreciated healing waters in the region. The thermal water is so pure that it can be consumed as drinking water.
Spring temperatures, between 40 and 49°C, and the concentration of salts slightly over 1 g/l provides miraculous properties to these waters for most locomotive disorders, falling in the category of oligo-mineral waters.
Febrile states, infectious diseases, dermatological diseases, heart failure, epilepsy, neoplasms, kidney and liver failure, pregnancy, children 0-3 years old, TBC.

TECAR THERAPY
A non-invasive, pain-relieving, anti-inflammatory and regenerative therapy that stimulates the body's self-healing mechanisms and is also successfully used in physiotherapy treatments by creating intense stimulation at the cellular level. TECARE therapy is recommended for reducing pain, oedema, inflammation and muscle contractions. The stimulation of energy within biological tissues activates the body's natural healing processes and has an anti-inflammatory effect.
Initially, TECAR therapy was used mainly in the field of sports, especially in the treatment of conditions of competitive athletes, where speed of healing and physical recovery are of particular importance. Success in this area, however, has rapidly led to the spread of TECAR therapy to other fields of activity.
The effects of the therapy are:
metabolic stimulation, which leads to accelerated healing of injured muscle tissue;
prevents the formation of fibrous scar tissue and achieves rapid and complete muscle fibre recovery even in severe injuries;
increased local macro- and microcirculation, with anti-inflammatory and resorptive effects, even stimulating lymphatic drainage;
action on peripheral pain receptors, thus also having an analgesic effect.
Among the most common conditions that can be successfully treated with TECAR therapy are: acute traumatic injuries, fracture sequelae, joint disorders, epicondylitis, rotator cuff impingement syndrome, patellar tendonitis, Baker's cyst, plantar fasciitis, metatarsalgia, heel tendonitis, gonarthrosis, coxarthrosis, coxalgia, neck pain, sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, autoimmune disease arthropathy.
IMPORTANT! The TECAR therapy device at Nelumbo Med-Spa Centre is unique in the North-West Region of Romania.
