  • Favorite Thing: Thermal Waters - Therapeutic Attributes

    The therapeutic properties of thermal spring water have been known for thousands of years.

    Already in the 1950s it was known that elements from thermal spring water and electrolytes pass through cell membranes. It was not until 50 years later that Peter Agre and Roderick Mackinnon ( Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2003 ), discovered how cellular water and ion channels function ( aqua and ion porines ), substantiating scientifically the reasons why thermal spring water acts therapeutically.

    Injury and malfunction of the myoskeletal system, dehydration, sensitivity to temperature changes, dermatological problems, kinetic problems etc. are just some of the complaints that can be treated with thermal spring water.

    Through the water and ion channels, by means of thermal spring water, the human body can draw at least twenty trace elements which are essential for it to function.

    Fondest Memory: Soaking in the natural Thermal mineral baths next to the cold sea in the month of December.
