Rehabilitation Programs and Natural therapies for Metabolic Disorders and Diabetes

Metabolic disorder is a disorder when some organs, such as your liver or pancreas, become diseased or do not function normally. Diabetes is a typical example. If you suffer from any kind of metabolic disorder come to the Czech republic for treatment. Czech spas have enormous experience in health therapy and healing of metabolic disorders and offer effective rehabilitation programs for treatment of patients with diabets.

Jachymov Spa, the first radon spa to be founded in the world, was established in 1906. The spa focuses on diseases of the locomotive apparatus, the periphery nervous system and the metabolic disorders. The methods employed include radon baths, electro-therapy, massages and curative gymnastics.

Jesenik Spa came into existence thanks to Vincenz Priessnitz, the founder of hydrotherapy, who established there the first hydrotherapy center in the world in 1822. Jesenik's specific climate with increased air ionization and higher radon emanation has very favourable effect on patients suffering from diseases of the respiratory and nervous system, metabolic diseases and of the locomotive organs.

In the 19th century, it became a popular tourist destination, especially for international celebrities. The city is also known for the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival and a popular Czech liqueur Becherovka. The water and mud are used to treat patients with digestive and musculoskeletal problems‚ diabetes and obesity.

The Luhacovice Spa is the largest and the most attended spa in Moravia with a tradition of more than 300 years. It specializes in the treatment of respiratory system diseases, metabolic malfunctions and digestive tract problems. Sixteen mineral springs and one sulphur spring supply a natural source of treatment. Luhacovice owes its fame, among other things, to the beautiful architecture of its sanatoria and parks.

Marianske Lazne’s springs became very popular at the end of the 19th century. The city was and still is visited by the great personas of politics, culture, science and sport. Let’s remember J. W. Goethe, F.Chopin or the tennis player I. Lendl.

Forty springs, both cold and hot, rise here.

Podebrady Spa, where the heart and the circulation system and metabolic disorders are treated, is situated 50km east of Prague. The small spa originated here already in the 17th century, but the main spring of mineral water with therapeutic effects was discovered later in 1905. Picturesque parks and surroundings are completed by a wide offer of cultural, sports and social events.

There are more than thirty spa towns in the Czech Republic. Some of them are represented just by a single sanatorium. However, the quality of the treatment reaches very high level everywhere.
