What is the difference between a spa and a thermal bath?
Spa and thermal baths: the difference Thermal baths like spas also exploit the benefits of water to offer therapeutic treatments. The peculiar feature, however, lies in the type of water used. In fact, the thermal baths exploit the hot waters that flow directly from the subsoil, their vapors and the resulting muds. But the water in thermal baths is not just warm – it is rich in minerals that penetrate deep into the body and have healing effects. These regenerate, stimulate and activate the entire body. The relaxing effect on the muscles also helps to reduce stress and find inner peace.A daily bath in the thermal water of 15 to 20 minutes is sufficient to achieve the desired effects. For joy and fun the duration of the bath in the thermal water can be extended here and there to a half or even a short hour – except you have a low blood pressure.
