The Science Behind the Treatments: The Medical Value of Thermal Baths

Pubblicato il 27 gennaio 2026 alle ore 09:50

The therapeutic value of thermal treatments is not just a matter of relaxation; it is recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a form of traditional medicine. At the heart of this healing power lies the unique "chemistry of the water" and the world-renowned "mud therapy" (Fangotherapy), a historical specialization of our basin rooted in the ancient cult of Aponus, the god of thermal waters.

The Chemistry of Healing

The water in Montegrotto is a complex mineral solution. As it travels deep underground from the Small Dolomites, it becomes enriched with minerals, transforming into salt-bromine-iodine water. This unique composition provides anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties that are essential for the body's regeneration.

Fangotherapy: Ancient Tradition, Modern Science

Our thermal mud is a biological "medicine." Scientific evidence shows that these treatments are highly effective against arthritis and joint diseases, significantly reducing pain and stiffness. The heat and the minerals absorbed during a mud session stimulate cellular metabolism and provide long-lasting relief to the musculoskeletal system.
