Feedback from our customers about spa hotels in Jurmala
The hotel is clean and the staff are attentive and friendly. Breakfasts are excellent and so is the location of the hotel.
The menu in the two hotel restaurants is very limited and never changes. The service is very slow and wine costs far too much. Never again we woulld go for the full board option.
I really liked the treatment, but I especially want to note the courtesy of all the hotel staff and, most importantly, the knowledge and professional qualities possessed by doctor Irina, physiotherapist Vladimir, Elena's massage, cosmetologist Alla. I myself am a physiotherapist and in no other resort have I seen so much understanding of the problem of health as we can do and how. There is no stress, no queues, the organization is excellent. Everything is done for recovery and improvement. Excellent SPA. Everything is convenient. Thank you very much. I left home (I live in Germany) broken and tired. It hurts here, it hurts there, but I arrived full of strength and healthy. This is an example of a real, excellent resort. Thanks to the whole team.
Great window view from the 9th floor , thanks for this.
There was no free parking at the hotel as it was 9 years ago. While the rain was falling we needed to carry all our bags and luggage. :// The swimming pool was over crowded with people form hotel and non hotel guests. I think, the pool should be available only for the hotel guests for their full satisfaction.
Friendly staff, great food, great value for money
As a suggestion, I would develop a booklet with treatments in English for non-Russian speaking guests
Treatment methods in Jurmala
In Jurmala resort spa hotels, the treatment is based on the application of natural healing factors and is divided into the following directions:
Water treatment with the help of natural mineral water, which is used in some water procedures (treatment of musculoskeletal system, cardiovascular system, gynecological, urological diseases) and for drinking therapeutic course (treatment of gastrointestinal tract, metabolism).
In Jurmala resort there are several mineral water springs of varying mineralization degrees and different chemical composition. This means that it is used for treating various diseases of the musculoskeletal system, gastrointestinal tract, and cardiovascular system.
In particular, the local hydrogen and iodobromous water is used mainly for mineral baths, as it has the property to enhance the regenerative functions of the body, reduces inflammation, eliminates pain, stabilizes heart rate and blood pressure, improves skin condition, strengthens the immune system. The leading spa hotels in Jurmala have their own mineral water springs.
In addition to mineral baths, a wide range of water procedures (pearl baths, whirlpool massage, underwater spine traction) are used. The peculiarity of underwater spine traction at the spa hotels of Jurmala is its "soft" method, ie without additional burdens on the patient's body with weights. This allows you to pull the spine without risk of injury.
For drinking therapeutic course is mainly used chloride-calcium-sodium mineral water (extracted from a depth of 435 meters) of average mineralization, which normalizes the secretion of gastric juice, improves metabolic processes in the body and has a beneficial effect on the liver and gallbladder. In some cases, chloride-calcium-sodium mineral water can completely replace medical treatment, as it has virtually no contraindications for use in therapeutic drinking course.
Mud therapy Mud treatment with peat and sapropel mud. It is used for treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system, some skin and gynecological diseases. Peat muds have a more beneficial effect on the musculoskeletal system, and sapropel muds are particularly suitable for treating cardiovascular and skin diseases due to their strong alkaline reaction and magnesium content.

- It has an anti-inflammatory effect
- Relieve the pain of the spine and joints
- Accelerate tissue regeneration
- Improves the metabolic processes in the body
- Strengthen the immune system

Jurmala has a unique microclimate due to the proximity of the sea (some health resorts are literally 200 meters from the coastline), the presence of pine forests that produce negative ions, as well as sand dunes that protect the resort from winds. Climatic factors of the resort are used for treatment and prevention of respiratory diseases, for general strengthening of the patients' immune system. In addition, this treatment method is complemented by inhalation therapy using mineral water.
