The aged mud is evenly distributed on the skin surface of the interested areas at a temperature of about 40°C. On a local level, there is intense skin vasodilatation and progressive muscular relaxation. On a general level, the thermal stress acts by freeing the hormones – cortisol and endorphins –, which produce an anti-inflammatory and analgesic action.
The short-term benefits, already present at the end of a therapeutic cycle (at least 6 sessions, better 10-12), are pain relief, muscle relaxation and anti-inflammatory, with consequent stimulation and improvement of the joint and periarticular structures.
Instead, the long-term effects during the months after treatment, are related to the prevention of relapses and slowing down the progression of the degenerative form treated, generally osteoarthritis.
Thermal treatments are provided every morning from Monday to Saturday inclusive, excluding Sundays.
