OverviewBalneotherapy, derived from the Latin words 'balneum' meaning bath and 'therapia' meaning treatment, is a therapeutic method focused on the rehabilitation and recovery of a patient's health post-illness. It also serves as a potent preventative measure against various ailments. This natural, non-pharmacological treatment involves the use of mineral-rich waters for baths, showers, foot or hand baths, as well as therapeutic muds and gases. Remarkably, balneotherapy stands as one of the oldest methods of treatment utilizing natural elements. In recent years, balneotherapy has emerged as a prominent alternative therapy within the realm of healthcare. This acclaim can be attributed to its efficacy in treating a diverse range of health conditions and its endorsement by medical professionals worldwide. Distinct from hydrotherapy, balneotherapy typically takes place in spas where water and mineral salts are employed through methods such as immersion, inhalation, and massages to achieve therapeutic effects. Moreover, therapeutic mud treatments are also integral to balneotherapy.
