“We play a key role in all the #EuHealthUnion Priorities, and to include Balneology in EU policy, one of the oldest therapeutic disciplines, leverages natural healing resources such as mineral and thermal waters, peloids, and healing climates to address a wide range of health conditions. The evidence-based benefits of balneotherapy include improvements in musculoskeletal disorders, cardiovascular health, respiratory diseases, dermatological conditions, and mental well-being. Beyond its therapeutic value, medical spa treatments contribute to disease prevention and immune system strengthening, reinforcing a holistic approach to healthcare that prioritizes sustainability and natural interventions.”
