THERMAL MEDICINE
Thermal Medicine and Resources for Enhanced REGENERATION
Thermal medical treatments complement and intensify the regenerative effects on the person. The richness of the Abano Terme territory, where the VYTA project originated, plays an important role in recreating a state of global health and well-being. Mature mud, enriched with specific microorganisms, along with thermal waters characterized by an abundance of salt, bromine, and iodine, exerts a high anti-inflammatory action, also reducing cartilage degeneration and joint pain. Abano Terme is the only location in Italy to possess a European certificate and to be considered DOC Mud (Fango DOC), a designation recognized by the European Patent Office.
This leads us to recommend comprehensive thermal treatment paths that encompass mud therapy, massage therapy, and inhalations, always preceded by a thermal medicine consultation.
THE THERMAL-MEDICAL PATH
Medical Examination
Before accessing mud therapy, a physician performs a medical history (anamnesis), evaluating the guest’s clinical conditions to provide the necessary indications for the treatment path and to exclude, in rare cases, possible contraindications.
Mud Therapy
The mud therapy session consists of applying mature hot mud to various body regions. The session takes place while lying down in a warm and quiet environment under constant supervision.
Massage Therapy
Massage therapy includes a series of therapeutic massages to alleviate pain and relax muscles. In massage therapy, the quality of contact, energy exchange, and the power of communication blend together. It allows the guest to achieve a deep connection with their mind and communicate fully with their body.
Inhalations
Thermal waters are also a valuable resource for treating respiratory tract pathologies. Through nebulization and/or inhalation, they are traditionally used and scientifically recognized for treating chronic conditions and for infection prevention.
Abano Terme thermal water is a simple and natural remedy to defend against colds and bronchitis, and is particularly useful for both active and passive smokers.
