Eger and named “Naftalan” found wide application in Western European countries, America, Japan and partly in Russia. It was used primarily to treat skin diseases.

Slovakia is rich in resort areas that are world famous. Such resorts include Piestany, a balneological resort in Southwestern Slovakia. It has healing thermal springs that help cure rheumatic and nervous diseases, and it is also a balneotherapy center for children over three years of age.

Spain, Portugal and Greece attract tourists as seaside resorts.

Traditional places of health tourism for residents of the CIS countries remain Israel (Dead Sea resorts), Egypt and Turkey with their sea climatic resorts.

Over the past 10 years, at a rapid pace, taking into account the growing needs of vacationers and the latest trends in the development of global health tourism, this area has been developing in India and other countries South-East Asia(Singapore, Thailand, China, Malaysia). As a rule, health improvement in newly built luxury SPA hotels and wellness centers includes methods oriental medicine, increasingly in demand among supporters of a healthy lifestyle.

China is famous for its health and healing capabilities. Thanks to sea water, mild climate, gentle sun, traditional Chinese medicine and mineral springs (there are about 2 thousand springs in total). Acupuncture, aromatherapy, mud therapy, inhalations, therapeutic baths and wraps, balneotherapy, etc. are widely used in Chinese sanatoriums. Thanks to radon springs, sciatica and rheumatism are cured, and potassium-sodium sources are used to prevent and treat diseases of the nervous system, skin and respiratory organs. Hot springs attract thousands of people seeking to improve their health and recharge with positive energy.

On the American continent, the leader in health tourism is the United States. Most North American resorts are balneological, but they are visited mainly by Americans themselves. There are also climatic resorts, but US residents prefer to receive treatment and relax in the resorts of Cuba, the Bahamas and Central America.

Climate therapy in Cuba provides therapeutic effect on the body through the central nervous system, skin and respiratory tract. The country's maritime climate helps increase metabolism and treats respiratory diseases. The high mountain climate will cure tuberculosis, respiratory diseases, nervous disorders and diseases of cardio-vascular system. You can also undergo a course of treatment and prevention of diseases of the cardiovascular and endocrine systems, digestive tract and orthopedic diseases. Thalassotherapy and SPA treatments can be offered at the Thalassotherapy Center in the province of Cayo Coco. Thalassotherapy has a beneficial effect on rheumatism, hypertension, arthrosis, and effectively combats stress and fatigue. Cuba's mineral and thermal springs are excellent for treating skin diseases and arthritis.

Australia has all the natural resources for health tourism, but due to the remoteness of the Green Continent, its resort hotels, like in the USA, are focused on receiving “domestic” tourists.

In Africa, health tourism began to actively develop not only due to an increase in the number of tourists in already known recreation and health areas (for example, in Egypt) but also in Tunisia, Morocco, Kenya and South Africa.

A fairly developed resort infrastructure is also available in the CIS countries. The resorts of Crimea and Truskavets (Ukraine), Jurmala (Latvia) are also widely known in neighboring countries. However, due to the discrepancy between the level of service and high international standards, most of these resorts attract only residents of these countries.

Currently, there are about 5.5 thousand health resorts in Russia, capable of simultaneously receiving 810 thousand vacationers. No other country in the world has a resort system of this scale. Russian resorts have almost all types of medicinal mineral waters, medicinal mud and other natural medicinal factors known in the world, including those that have no analogues in the world. The sanatorium-resort network covers almost the entire country, with the exception of certain sparsely populated regions of the North and Siberia.

Russian resorts have a real opportunity to compete not only in the domestic but also in the international tourism market. There are the following prerequisites for this:

The price of services is much lower than in Western resorts;
- the Russian school of balneology is more advanced than the Western one;
- the level of service is gradually approaching Western standards;
- excursion programs offered by our resorts are of higher standards.

Natural healing factors

Hydromineral base :

1. Sulfate-chloride-magnesium-calcium-sodium water
2. Hydrocarbonate-sulfate-calcium water

3. Chloride-sodium-bromine-boron brines

Peloid therapy : sapropel mud.

Description of healing factors

Sulfate-chloride-magnesium-calcium-sodium water (for outdoor and internal use) belongs to the mineral natural drinking medicinal table, XIX group, Khilovsky type. Mineral water "Khilovskaya" is a natural medicinal table water extracted from the unique natural springs of the Khilovo resort. The springs are located in the center of the sanitary protection zone, isolated from harmful effects urban environment. The water is extracted from a depth of over 250 m, complies with GOST and is recommended by the Russian Scientific Center for Regenerative Medicine and Balneology for drinking treatment.

Bicarbonate-sulfate-calcium water (for external use) belongs to mineral balneological, group 2.1.2, Khilovsky type. The water contains hydrogen sulfide in standard quantities, which has important balneotherapeutic value. Hydrogen sulfide rejuvenates the skin and restores its derivatives: hair, nails; enhances cartilage metabolism, bone tissue. After a course of baths, blood cholesterol levels and hyperglycemia in diabetes mellitus are reduced. Hydrogen sulfide affects functional state central nervous system, enhances the inhibition process, stimulates the pituitary gland system - thyroid- ovaries. Under the influence of hydrogen sulfide baths, blood pressure decreases and cardiac output increases, the functional state of the myocardium improves, and blood flow in the kidneys, liver, brain, and muscles increases. Hydrogen sulfide increases the amount of reduced and reduces the amount of oxidized forms of proteins, as a result of which the biosynthesis of fatty acids and cholesterol decreases. Microcirculation improves by increasing the volumetric velocity of muscle blood flow, reducing perivascular swelling, reducing platelet aggregation and blood viscosity. All this is an important link in the mechanism therapeutic effect for coronary heart disease, cerebral ischemia, peripheral vascular diseases and other diseases of the cardiovascular system.

Chloride-sodium-bromine-boron brines (for external use) are classified as mineral balneological. Baths have an effect on the leading systems of the body: nervous, cardiovascular, sympathetic-adrenal and pituitary-adrenal. They create favorable conditions for the formation of compensatory-adaptive and restorative reactions of the body. The main mechanism of action of these baths is the deposition of mineral salts on the skin and the formation of the so-called “salt cloak”, which is a source of long-term irritation of receptors and a reflex effect on functional systems. The presence of a “salt cloak” on the skin determines the characteristics of heat exchange in sodium chloride baths, which are characterized by greater heating of the body than in other baths. An increase in body temperature causes a compensatory vasodilator reaction, increasing oxygen absorption. An increase in skin circulation is accompanied by the release of deposited blood, an increase in the volume of circulating blood and the flow of venous blood to the heart, a decrease in blood viscosity, and normalization of blood pressure. Baths improve all types of exchange. Due to the bromine included in the water, the baths have a pronounced sedative effect, enhance inhibitory processes in the cerebral cortex. They normalize immune properties, improve cerebral and general hemodynamics, and affect the tone of peripheral veins.

Sapropel mud in the sanatorium "Khilovo" it is extracted from the bottom of the lake, located 12 km from the resort. Therapeutic mud belongs to sapropelic, low-sulfide, low-mineralized, medium-ash peloids, which have balneological value. The medicinal significance of sapropel is determined by its high thermal properties, the presence of a large amount of organic substances - humic, bitumen, as well as vitamins (B1, B12, C, D, E), enzymes, hormones, iron sulfides. Mud therapy actively improves all types of metabolism, microcirculation, tissue trophism, promotes healing and bone growth, eliminates the inflammatory process without damaging beneficial microflora, relaxes muscle and nerve fiber, has a powerful immunomodulatory effect.

Mineral water

Description of healing factors

The composition of lake water is sulfate-chloride, sodium-potassium, with a high content of magnesium, slightly alkaline. The salt content varies across its area. It is highest in the central part of the lake, where it is 18-20 grams per liter of moisture, near the shores, especially close to the mouth of the Son River. The salt content is usually a few grams lower. With depth, the mineralization of moisture increases everywhere, and in the central part of the Shire, the bottom layer already consists of brines. The main healing factors of Lake Shira are its mineral water, mud, underground mineral springs and the healthy climate of these places. These factors are usually used in combination with all conventional healing methods. A very important healing factor of the Shira resort is its medicinal drinking mineral water. It is taken orally and, depending on the time of administration and temperature, has different effects on the patient. Taken orally, it irritates the receptors of the gastrointestinal tract and has a reflex effect on the central nervous system. After absorption, the constituent elements of water lead to some changes in the body, which entails complex, beneficial consequences. At the same time, cold water introduced into the stomach causes an increase in secretory activity, and warmed up to 40-45 degrees, on the contrary, inhibits it. The same goes for appointment times.

Mineral hydrogen sulfide water

Description of healing factors

The MRC has unique natural healing factors - sulfate-bicarbonate calcium-magnesium waters, as well as healing sulfide-silt mud. They contain almost all chemical elements.

Mineral water
The main natural treatment factor at the resort is natural mineral hydrogen sulfide sulfate-bicarbonate calcium-magnesium waters and sulfide silt mud extracted from the lake. Treatment with hydrogen sulfide water changes the colloidal properties of the skin, changes barrier functions, activates enzymatic processes in the body. The result of this effect is a pronounced anti-inflammatory, absorbable, analgesic, trophic-regenerative effect (improved metabolism).

In healing mud contains almost the entire periodic table. Mud also contains antibiotic-like, hormone-like biologically active substances that have a strong anti-inflammatory effect, relax muscles, reduce pain in the joints and spine, increase immunity, resolve scars, scars on the skin, have an anti-cellulite effect, and mud masks help get rid of acne and fatigue skin.

Climate

The Varzi-Yatchi sanatorium is distinguished by a special microclimate, characteristic only of this area. Its climate is characterized as moderate continental with distinct seasons. According to the bioclimatic passport of the territory, “the landscape and climatic conditions of the sanatorium are a high-quality natural healing factor for use in resort and health and rehabilitation practice for climatic treatment and climatic prevention of diseases.”

Rare, in its composition, peat mud — "live medicine", is extracted from a peat bog located on the territory. According to the conclusion of the Russian scientific center restorative medicine and balneology (Moscow, 2007), this mud should be classified as medicinal low-mineralized, low-sulfide, high-ash peat mud. It is unique in its composition and medicinal properties and is considered a reference. On the territory of Russia it is “the only representative of this type used for medicinal purposes.” The balneological value of mud is due to its very high thermal and plastic properties, the presence of therapeutically active mineral components: sulfides, free hydrogen sulfide, water-soluble salts, a large amount of organic substances, including balneologically valuable ones - humic acids and their salts, sulfonic acids, bitumen, as well as the presence of organic biostimulants - lipids, vitamins, enzymes, hormones, etc.

Mineral water.
Currently, the Varzi-Yatchi sanatorium has a diverse hydromineral base, which is represented by 4 types of water:

1. Low-mineralized sulfate sodium-magnesium-calcium composition, with a slightly alkaline reaction of the medium (This water is of particular interest because it contains silver ions. The results of clinical studies indicate the high effectiveness of this water in the treatment of patients with diseases of the stomach, biliary and urinary tracts, as well as in the treatment of diabetes and gout).

2. Low-mineralized calcium sulfate composition.

3. Moderately mineralized chloride-sulfate-calcium-sodium composition.

4. Strong brine of sodium chloride composition (A feature of the brines of the Varzi-Yatchi sanatorium is that they do not contain hydrogen sulfide. This expands the possibility of their use in the treatment of many diseases, in particular the cardiovascular system, upper respiratory tract and female genital diseases spheres.)

List of diseases

Diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, Diseases of metabolism and endocrine glands, Diseases of the kidneys and urinary tract, Diseases of the oral cavity and nasopharynx, Functional disorders of the nervous system, Diseases of the musculoskeletal system, Diseases of the cardiovascular system, Diseases of the respiratory system, Rehabilitation departments.

Mineral natural radon water

Description of healing factors

For more than a hundred years, progressive balneology has been using unique chemical element Radon. However, until now, treatment methods using radon have undeservedly remained in the shadows against the background of the use of other natural factors, such as mineral waters and mud. On the one hand, this gives Radon some mystery and elitism, on the other hand, many patients suffering from quite serious illnesses are deprived of the opportunity to try its wonderful, truly effective and unique therapeutic power. We want to fill this gap and give our potential clients the opportunity to learn about the existence of such a treatment method as radon therapy and familiarize them in more detail with all its nuances. We can talk about two ways of action of radon - neuro-reflex, through the nerve endings of the skin, and humoral - penetration of radon with the flow of blood and lymph into subcutaneous fat and other organs and tissues. 2.5 hours after the radon procedure, radon is completely eliminated from the body, and after another two hours the daughter products disappear. For several hours after a radon bath in the skin and, to a lesser extent, in other organs and tissues, as a result of alpha irradiation, a state of ionization of tissue fluid occurs, which changes the direction and intensity of biochemical processes, which serves as a trigger for the restoration of impaired functions of human organs and tissues.

Lake "Bear" brine of sulfate-chloride magnesium-sodium type (salt content in concentration is not inferior to the Dead Sea - Israel)

Mineral water "Medvezhye-11" is characterized as sodium chloride medicinal table water.

List of diseases

Diseases of the male reproductive system: chronic prostatitis, infertility.

Treatment of frequently ill children: sore throats, bronchitis, increased immunity.

Scoliosis, poor posture, flat feet, cerebral palsy.

Treatment of postoperative adhesions, post-burn scars.

Natural healing factors

Mineral water, mud.

Natural mineral waters and healing mud are the main wealth of the Usolsky sanatorium.

Description of healing factors

Mineral water
The composition of the water is unique. According to the analysis data, "Institute of Problems of Technology of Microelectronics and Highly Pure Materials of the Russian Academy of Sciences" of the Moscow Region, "Institute of Problems of Ecology and Evolution named after A.N. Severtsev" Moscow, "Tomsk Research Institute of Balneology and Physiotherapy" Tomsk, Usolsky The baths are called, based on the main ingredients, bromine-chloride-sodium, their healing properties are enhanced high content hydrogen sulfide, as well as bromine, iodine, silicic acid, potassium, manganese, and a fraction of strontium for better absorption of calcium.

The natural water of the Usol springs, traveling through underground labyrinths, washes the rocks encountered, is saturated with underground salts, minerals, gases and acquires healing properties, and then rises to the surface through springs and springs. The uniqueness of the Usolskoye field is the natural pressure with which jets of water rise to the surface of the reservoir. Two artesian wells 500 meters deep provide water with a free path to the surface of the earth.

Another powerful healing factor in the Usolye Sanatorium is peat-silt mud.
They are mined 12 km from the Usolye Sanatorium from Solenoe Lake. The history of the appearance of healing mud in the Usolsky region is also very interesting. At the beginning of the century before last, the British, conducting geodetic research, drilled a well 12 kilometers from Usolye. The water taken from it for testing was, for some reason, not suitable for salt extraction, and the foreigners abandoned the well. The water flowing outside caused a lot of trouble to the local residents, and they threw stones at the artificial spring. However, moisture still seeped out and gradually a small peat bog formed in this place, which was soaked in brine for more than a hundred years. In 1928, the “hundred-year-old” mud from this place was studied for its healing properties and has since been actively used to treat various diseases. It should be noted that the reserves of healing mud are not unlimited. According to estimates, they will only last for the next decades. So, those who want to experience their healing properties for themselves should hurry up. Based on a study of medicinal mud by the Tomsk Research Institute, based on the main classification criteria, the mud can be recognized as corresponding to mineralized sulfide peat medicinal mud.

Mineral water

Description of healing factors

Mineral water
In 1975, 2 wells were drilled on the territory of the Karacharovo sanatorium center to provide a hydromineral base and treat diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. According to hydrochemical studies, the mineral water withdrawn from the well belongs to low-mineralized sulfate-magnesium-calcium waters. (XII group Ashgabat waters).

It is extracted from a well 480 m deep, where no contact with aquiferous upper layers is guaranteed;

The chemical composition of water has remained unchanged since the start of well operation. The place of water accumulation was carried out in lime-gypsum caves, which are a natural filter, which ensures crystal purity and a refreshing spring taste;

Toxic microelements, including nitrogen compounds, heavy metals, and radionuclides were not detected or their concentration is significantly lower than the maximum permissible standards;

The water is low-mineralized, is actively used as a table water, and does not taste salty. It contains only the amount of mineral salts necessary for treatment, without leading to their excessive accumulation in the body.

In terms of its chemical composition, it is a unique product of nature.

At the International Congress on Balneology in 1996 in Moscow, she was awarded a diploma and entered the top ten of the 160 waters in the world represented.

Also, on the territory of the Karacharovo sanatorium center, natural mineral drinking table water has been produced since 1970. According to hydrochemical studies, mineral water belongs to weakly mineralized fresh waters of hydrocarbonate magnesium-calcium composition. Natural drinking table water "Karacharovo" is used without boiling as a table water and as a basis for preparing food, drinks, diluting juices and concentrates.
