How is treatment carried out at the resort
Upon arrival at the hotel or spa hotel, the patient is given an appointment with a doctor. At the appointment, the doctor will review the patient's general state of health, clarify the diagnosis and prescribe an individual treatment plan. In some cases, the doctor will need additional indications - then he or she will prescribe laboratory tests (usually a clinical blood test) or additional examinations (e.g. ECG, ultrasound or gastroenterology examination). That is why it is desirable for the patient to bring with him the results of the last (no more than six months ago) laboratory tests, medical examinations and the opinion of the attending physician. This will save time and money for additional examinations.
Treatment in Kolobrzeg resort is based on the use of natural resources - peat mud from Mirotice deposit, mineral water from salt springs and sea climate. Peat muds have high biological activity and heat capacity, have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effect on the body. At the resort, muds are used in the form of therapeutic baths, wraps, and applications. First of all, mud procedures are prescribed for guests with inflammatory rheumatic diseases.
There are 14 active drinking springs in Kolobrzeg, where the mineral water rises from a depth of 45 to 250 meters. A distinctive feature of the local mineral water is its high salt concentration, which reaches 60 g/L. Chloride-sodium brines contain a number of valuable minerals: iodine, bromine, calcium, phosphorus, aluminium, nitrogen, sulfur, lithium, strontium and copper. Mineral water in pure or diluted form is taken and used for therapeutic baths, inhalations, nose washes. In rehabilitation pools filled with mineral water with a temperature of about 30 °C, conduct therapeutic gymnastics. Exercises in water are very useful for musculoskeletal disorders and traumatic spinal cord disease.
Salt baths are one of the most popular procedures in Kolobrzeg health resorts. Chloride-sodium baths normalize blood supply to organs and tissues, help fight stress, and activate metabolic processes in the skin. The course of treatment includes 12-15 procedures conducted every day. The temperature of water in the baths is 35-38 °C, the duration of the procedure - 10-20 minutes, after the procedure should not be bathing in freshwater and during 1-hour rest is necessary. The coastal area of Kolobrzeg is a natural inhalation. The clean air is saturated with ozone and sea vapors containing chlorine, bromine and iodine molecules. Staying in Kolobrzeg is therefore useful for resort guests suffering from respiratory and cardiovascular disease.
