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.

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).
