The basis of the forty year existence of the Castle Bath of Gyula is the thermal water springing up to the surface at the temperature of 72 oC from the deepness of 2004 m since 17th September 1957 and which can be easily recognised by its characteristic smell and brownish colour. The spa water containing alcali-hydrogene-carbonate is primarily suitable for treating articular and spine diseases, chronic gynaecological inflammations, aortic stenosis. At our medical department run summer and winter, under the control of rheumatologic, physiotherapeutic and sports physicians, mud-pack, magneto-therapeutic treatment, box galvanic, carbonated bath, weight bath, tangentor treatment, medicinal and refreshment massage, as well as remedial gymnastics and swimming are available
Treatments
Pool bath
This is the most generally required rehabilitating treatment form, the efficiency of which mainly comes from the fact that the liquid relatively decreases the weight of the body (thanks to the upward pressure) and thus the motion becomes easier even for those able to move only with difficulties. Owing to the hot temperature of the water the veins and arteries dilate, which decreases the blood pressure to a certain degree, intensifies, however, the material exchange of the tissues, improves the uptake of the nutritive materials of the tissues and the absorption of the roughage, inflammatory products. We cannot neglect also the effects of the mineral materials existing in the water. The recommended bathing time is from 30 minutes till three times 30 minutes depending on the proposal of the physician.
Massage therapy 1200HUF
It belongs to the most ancient treatments, was acknowledged as medical treatment in India even in 4000 B.C. As a primary impact it intensifies the circulation of the connective tissues and the muscular system under the skin, owing to which the flexibility of the skin, the blood supply of the muscles and the locomotive extension improve. The improvement of the blood supply helps the absorption of the oedemas and increase the secretion of the kidneys. It has an impact on the vegetative nervous system, therefore it influences advantageously the operation of the innards. It is applied primarily to improve the strength, the material exchange and the flexibility of the muscular system and to regulate its tone. It is also used in treating articular degenerative deformation as well as in alleviating muscular pains, in ceasing contractures, in rehabilitation after accidents and in treating those suffering from rheumatoid arthritis or decalcification.
Whirlpool bath (tangentor) 1300HUF
It unifies the soft feeling of massaging the skin surface with the effects of the elements, temperature, physical properties of the water. The tangetor treatment means a deep stimulus for the tissue. It makes the soft parts vibrate and relax and intensify the blood and lymph circulation. Sportsmen use it extensively for relaxing, training and refreshing the muscles.
Carbonic acid bath 1200HUF
Its most important biological effect is that it improves the circulation of the peripheries and the capacity of the heart. As a result of the carbonic acid bath the surface arteries and veins are dilating, the circulation is improving in the connecting tissues, muscles under the skin. It leads to decrease in the blood pressure of the arteries (it lasts for longer time during series-treatment), owing to which the operation of the heart improves and the minute capacity increases. Consequently the own circulation of the heart and the material exchange improve.
Indications:
* circulation problems in arteries and veins
* high blood pressure
* problems in the micro circulation of the skin
* deformation in the vegetative nervous system
* chronic locomotive disorders, orteoporosis
* rehabilitation after heart attack, vasoconstriction, heart operation
Remedial gymnastics under water: 1600HUF
In water moving the painful, attached joints is much easier and painless. It is a very important treatment-method especially in case of worn, inflammatory diseases in the spine, shoulder, hip, knee-joint or decalcification in the spine. It can be used very effectively after orthopaedic sport surgical interventions, sport injuries, accidents.
Weight bath:
By using the upward pressure of the water we can get the spine, the hip and the knee to be extended. Release of the vertebral disks, smaller nervous roots, cessation of smaller vertabra or small joints dislocations, moderation of taenia and muscle atrophy, release of contractures and decrease in chronic inflammatory processes can be expected from the weight bath. We carry out the treatment as a cure of 10-15 occasions by neck or armpit support using gradually increasing weights (placed on the waist or the leg).
Indications:
* spondylosis, spondylarthrosis (inflexibility of the spondyl joints)
* discopatia (deformation in vertebral disk)
* paravertebral myalgia (muscle pain beside the spine)
* cervicobrachialgia (brachial neuralgia)
* lumboischialgia (sciatica)
* intercostalis (pain coming from the nerves between the ribs)
* migraine cervicalis
* neuralgia occipitalis
* arthrosis et contractura coxae (wearing away of the hip joints with atrophy)
* arthrosis et contractura genus (wearing away of the knee joints with atrophy)
Mud-cure 1400HUF
In the Castle Bath of Gyula the treatment is carried out with inorganic mud from the River Maros. The biological effect of the mud comes from its chemical and physical properties. Its physical effects are the heat effect, the hydrostatic pressure and the stimulating effect. The biological effect of heat and hydrostatic pressure is similar to the effect mechanism of the thermal water with the difference that the heat effect and the pressure of the mud is much more expressive than that of the water. The stimulation is provided by organic and inorganic materials. The mud is finely granulated therefore its heat holding capacity is high. It gives the heat slowly to the body consequently our skin tolerates the heat at higher temperature than that of the hot water. We can tolerate mud of 42-45 oC well during mud-cure. Beside its deeply radiating heat effect it has general stimulating impact. We apply mud packing or partial mud-cure with cooling the head or the heart if necessary.
Indications:
* chronic wearing away of spine and limb joints
* muscular pains, injuries, rehabilitation after operations
* pre-care of articular or muscular inflexibility
* chronic gynaecological inflammations
* menses problems
* psoriasis
Galvanic therapy with four cells 800HUF
A unified application of the hydrotherapy and the electrotherapy. It has advantageous impact on the body by electrically stimulating the locomotive and sensitive nerves as well as the muscles and influencing also the operation of the vegetative nervous system. It has also pain-killing effect in case of descending treatment.
Indications:
* pain-killing in case of pain affecting more joints or parts of the body: rheumatoid arthritis, soft part rheumatism
* improving the circulation, intensifying the blood supply
* healing nervous inflammation
* inflammatory or degenerative diseases of the small joints of the hand, wrist, elbow, leg, ankle
* polyneuritis (nervous inflammation)
* Sudeck-atrophia (circulation problem after limb injuries, local decalcification)
* treatment of vasoconstriction
Magnotherapy:
Healing by magnetic space. It improves the intensity of the muscular traction, thus corrects the muscular inflexibility, reduces the articular inflammations. It helps the osteogenesis, intensifies the blood circulation, and, as it is proved, it has advantageous effect in cases of Parkinson's disease.
Indications:
* treatment after fracture
* Sudeck-atrophia
* endo-prosthesis loosened aseptically
* decalcification
* inflexible muscular system
The cures with spa water influence the regulating processes of the organisation. We can intensify our adaptive abilities with the cures, we can use them for improving our general condition, our general protecting system, recreation. Our spa is excellently suitable for treating chronic locomotive diseases, chronic gynaecologic inflammatory diseases and barrenness, for rehabilitation after accidents, surgical interventions connecting to limbs, joints, based on preliminary medical consultation and recommendation.
Important:
* controlling the blood pressure of patients suffering from high blood pressure before bath-cures
* those having high fever or infective diseases cannot take bath-cures
* before bath-cures those suffering from chronic inner diseases should visit their attending physician and ask his/her opinion
