Thermal springs are one of the main gifts of nature in Adygea, recreation on them is considered one of the most popular in the republic.

Why bathing in thermal pools is useful and what ailments warm mineral springs will help to cope with, says site.

In contrast

Doctors recognize that thermal waters have restorative and preventive properties, are very useful for healthy people, as well as for rehabilitation after illnesses.

There are more than 20 thermal springs in Adygea. They are mainly concentrated on the territory of the Maikop district, in the villages of Tulsky and Tsvetochny.

There are practically no contraindications for swimming in thermal water in an open-air pool.

There are 14 of them only in the Tula region. Several of the largest are comfortably equipped, but there are also "wild" ones that simply beat out of the ground. It is not very convenient to visit them.

Adyghe thermal water contains compounds of cobalt, barium, iodine, bromine, boron and zinc. Thanks to them, the springs have a whole bunch of healing properties.

When swimming:

♦ easily relieve stress and strain;
♦ slows down the aging process;
♦ kills bacteria;
♦ removes salt from the body;
♦ cleans the body of toxins and salts;
♦ strengthens the immune system;
♦ heals the female reproductive system;
♦ restores the nervous, cardiovascular and respiratory systems.

♦ gastric ulcer and 12 duodenal ulcer;
♦ chronic diseases of the liver and biliary tract;
♦ slag deposits;
♦ pancreatitis.

The Secret of the Humpbacked Skate

The springs of Adygea have a hydrocarbonate-chloride-sodium composition of water and an increased content of silicic acid and sulfur. According to experts Ministry of Health of the Republic, silicon is a really powerful water activator with significant bactericidal properties.

Water does not deteriorate, it is stored for a long time, it is purified. Water activated by silicon has a detrimental effect on microorganisms, suppresses bacteria that cause rotting and fermentation. Active precipitation of heavy metals takes place in it, the water becomes clear in appearance and pleasant to the taste.

Due to their composition, the Caucasian thermal springs have the effect of a "hunchbacked horse": they not only heal the body, but also slow down the aging process.

“Every year we come to the thermal springs of Adygea. In winter, even when the air temperature is slightly below zero, it is stable + 40 ° C in the pool. Steam rises from the water, creating a sauna effect. You can climb out and dive into a snowdrift, play snowballs, and then back into hot water. We swam in the spring both in summer and in autumn, "says the Muscovite. Evgeny Svetlov.

There are practically no contraindications for swimming in thermal water in an open-air pool. The unique composition of the water will help get rid of many diseases and accumulated fatigue.

The thermal springs of Adygea were discovered by Soviet geologists, who, during exploration in the foothills of the Caucasus, during drilling, uncovered aquifers with hot water (about 100 °). But, since the thermal baths were not the ultimate goal of exploration, the wells were mothballed, and then they were forgotten. As time went on, the wells left without leaving began to leak. Local residents, having discovered a hot spring, equipped it with a simple "bathing". But soon people with an entrepreneurial streak became interested in the composition of water. The analysis showed that this water is good for human health, after which recreation centers and sanatoriums began to be built around the wells.

What to do if you want to go on an unforgettable journey, while improving your health, taking care of your appearance, and taking a break from the hustle and bustle, and there is only one vacation, and even that in winter? The ideal solution is to visit a spa with thermal springs!

Thermal springs - underground waters coming out to the surface, the temperature of which does not fall below 20 ° C throughout the year. These unique natural objects contribute to the active restoration of health, maintenance of beauty and prolongation of youth. Not to mention the fact that they are often found in the most beautiful corners of the planet.

The history of "living" water

Research into the healing properties of hot springs dates back to ancient times. Centuries-old legends tell that initially people watched sick and wounded animals, which were healed by plunging into natural warm water bodies.

The ancient Greeks and ancient Romans already fully understood the benefits of bathing in thermal waters and massively built their baths near hot springs. However, the scientific approach to the use of thermal water, depending on its chemical composition and the health problems that need to be addressed, has only been widely adopted since the mid-19th century.

Today balneotherapy is a global health and beauty industry, a universal treatment without the use of drugs, which supplements and sometimes completely replaces traditional drug treatment.

What are the thermal springs

First of all, thermal springs, depending on the water temperature, are divided into:

• subthermal, or warm - from 20 ° C to 36 ° C;
• thermal, or hot - from 37 ° С to 42 ° С;
• hyperthermal, or very hot - above 43 ° C

It is temperature that is one of the main factors affecting the chemical composition and healing properties of thermal waters. The higher it is, the higher the concentration of minerals in the water and its biological activity.

The Icelandic natural geothermal spring, Deildartungukver, is the largest and hottest in Europe. The water temperature in it is 97 ° С all year round, and it bursts out to the surface in the form of geysers - fountains of boiling water and steam under high pressure. The source supplies hot water to all settlements within a radius of 100 km.

The high therapeutic efficiency of thermal springs is primarily due to their unique chemical composition. The water in them is enriched with a large amount of mineral salts, micro- and macroelements: potassium, calcium, magnesium, sodium, sulfur, chlorine, manganese, zinc, silicon, selenium, iron, copper, iodine, bromine, fluorine, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and also in small quantities - radioactive substances, such as radon.

Thermal waters and health

It is important to remember that visiting thermal spas has nothing to do with a traditional beach holiday. All thermal waters have a pronounced biological activity, however, differing greatly from each other in temperature and mineral composition, they have completely different effects on the body. Therefore, before visiting thermal baths, pools and lakes, it is necessary to consult a doctor in order to choose the most suitable source for each individual case.

For example, those suffering from asthma, hypertension and coronary heart disease are most suitable for carbonated thermal waters. In diseases of the nervous system and thyroid gland, iodine-bromine are indicated. Lesions of the musculoskeletal system and skin diseases are effectively treated in hydrogen sulfide sources, and sodium chloride is recommended for metabolic disorders, diseases of the endocrine system and to stimulate the activity of the brain.

!

To avoid dizziness and loss of consciousness, when immersed in a thermal spring, the region of the heart must remain above the water.

Thermal water helps to treat gynecological and urological diseases. It has a beneficial effect on the respiratory organs and joints, it is excellent for chronic fatigue, as well as during the rehabilitation period after surgery and injuries. In addition, bathing in thermal springs strengthens the immune system and increases the body's resistance to the effects of pathogenic bacteria and viruses.

Thermal springs are contraindicated

• Suffering from severe cardiovascular pathologies and blood diseases.
• Patients with type I diabetes.
• Prone to epileptic seizures and prone to seizures.
• Patients with all forms of tuberculosis.
• During the period of acute inflammatory and infectious diseases.
• Having any neoplasms, both malignant and benign.
  Pregnant women (from the fourth month). Until that time - only in warm springs.
• For women, during menstruation.
• For all chronic diseases in an exacerbation stage.

!

The duration of the procedure in thermal springs should not exceed 15–20 minutes.

Thermal waters and beauty

Thermal waters are also widely used as active ingredients in various cosmetics. As part of care cosmetics, they perfectly moisturize, cleanse, soothe and tighten the skin, promote its regeneration and increase elasticity, and protect the skin from the harmful effects of the environment.

Depending on the biochemical composition, the waters of different thermal springs can affect the condition of the skin in different ways, so they must be selected in accordance with the desired cosmetic effect.

For dry skin the most suitable are the so-called hypertonic waters. Rich in mineral salts, they have excellent moisturizing and toning properties.

For oily or irritated skin thermal waters with a low content of mineral salts, which are called hypotonic, are ideal. They most effectively normalize the water-lipid balance of the skin, have a direct bactericidal effect on it.

Versatile, suitable for all skin types , are considered isotonic thermal waters, which remarkably soothe and nourish skin cells, have pronounced anti-inflammatory properties.

The methods of using thermal waters in cosmetology are also varied. They can either be used in their pure form in the form of a spray that is sprayed directly onto the skin of the face and body, or they can be part of a variety of cosmetic products: tonics, lotions, creams, serums, etc.

The use of cosmetics based on thermal waters is effective for both day and night care. Ideally, it is advisable to use it, especially in combination with any other cosmetic products and procedures, after consulting a cosmetologist - in order to avoid the risk of allergic reactions.

Good day! We returned from Valencia at the end of September. Before the trip, we found the website of the individual tours agency Myvalencia, called and were pleasantly surprised - everything that the website promises is really. We expressed our wishes to the manager Dmitry, discussed it, and received the entire description by e-mail. We ordered a transfer from Valencia airport to Gandia, after 10 days back to Valencia, three excursions in Valencia and a transfer to the airport. Moreover, if it is written on the website that when ordering at least one excursion, the transfer to the airport is free - however, it was taken free of charge. Moreover, they made very good discounts for 2 of 3 excursions. They offered to make a partial advance payment, but at will. We didn't, we paid locally for each product separately. Two days before the flight, they sent a photo of the meeting driver, no signs. Roman met us on time, quickly brought us to Gandia, and on the way talked about Spain. After 10 days, he also came to pick us up, and Roman took us to Valencia as well. We liked it very much that all the days one person was responsible for our trip, we could always contact him by phone if we had any questions. He brought it to the hotel, went with us to the reception, made sure that everything was in order. A couple of hours later he took us on a scooter tour of the parks of Turia. Great! Although it was not immediately possible for me personally to ride a scooter, but in the afternoon there are not many people, we successfully drove there and back. We stayed where we liked it, Roman talked about each bridge, about interesting places. He showed us where the entrance to the biopark is, where the ticket offices are, where the bridge is to cross - in general, we ourselves were then able to quickly find our bearings. Then we also drove around the City of Science and Arts, although this was not included in the excursion, but then we could also independently navigate when going there, to Oceanographic. Then, instead of the hotel, he took us to the El Saler supermarket, prompted where the toy store was. Help and care for us was felt, and not only from Roman's side, but manager Dmitry from Moscow also contacted us several times by e-mail. So do not worry, the agency Muvalencia will not leave you alone with questions, it will help. A day later, Roman picked us up from the hotel for a walking tour of old Valencia, brought the guide directly to the hotel, and in the evening took us to a small restaurant with a flamenco show. I ordered everything in advance, a table and snacks. Here is our special thanks to Roman for flamenco. It was a real FLAMENCO, we even forgot about tasty (very tasty) snacks, so it was mesmerizing, not to come off. Roman took us back at night, but after such a performance he didn't even want to sleep. And in the morning he took us to the plane. Thanks to Roman, thanks to Dmitry, thanks to Myvalencia, I really want to come again, again with them, since not everyone has seen it yet. I recommend it to everyone, everything is fine. GREAT! See you!

We had a rest with our family during the autumn holidays.

We had a rest with our family during the autumn holidays. Quite by chance we found the website of the company "My Valencia" on the Internet. We left a request for two excursions and were pleasantly surprised that they would meet and take us from the airport and back for free!
Great job of the guide Roman! He showed us a new, beautiful and well-groomed Valencia (we have been here before, but one day)!
Now fell in love with this city!
A wonderful excursion was to the caves with an underground river by boats! The child, and my husband and I, really liked it!
Let's come back to this extraordinary city!
And of course, we will not even think about where to go for the organization of excursions !!
There's a lot more to see!
I recommend this company !!

All liked it!

We visited Valencia for the first time in September 2016, and meeting with a wonderful person and storyteller Roman (“My Valencia” company) was a wonderful gift for our vacation. We ordered a transfer from the airport to the apartment and several excursions with this company, and the return transfer to the airport was provided as a bonus! We were pleasantly surprised by the prices for the excursion program in comparison with other guides, while the saturation and quality do not suffer. Special thanks to Roman for his help in solving personal problems, punctuality, erudition. We sincerely wish the company prosperity and pleasant tourists! Thank you very much for the excellent organization of our holiday.

Hello everyone. At the beginning of September, we rested in Valencia. Everything is just super. Before departure, we contacted this agency. We were met by a wonderful guy Roman. Generally handsome. And I met. And he organized excursions. Very polite. Punctual. He told everything, showed everything. Generally well done. And just a good guy. ??. I advise everyone - if there, contact him. You will not regret. And so everything is fine. And Spain and Valencia and the rest of the sea. One minus is that the tourism sector is well developed. But that's good. More relaxed.

In Valencia - for the second time. Usually we go sightseeing ourselves, but this time we decided to visit the Caves outside the city and book an excursion there. Back in Moscow, we phoned the representative of this agency Myvalencia, since they had the cheapest prices, and agreed on a specific date for the excursion, and having arrived in Valencia, they confirmed our desire.
Everything was great! Punctually, politely, interesting!
By the appointed time, a beautiful Mercedes car with a nice and erudite guide Roman drove up to our hotel. We drove to the caves for about an hour and learned a lot about the surroundings of Valencia and the history of the Caves. On the spot, all issues with tickets and audio guide were quickly resolved. We examined the caves moving along the underground river by boat, it was very interesting to walk inside the rocks. We were taken back not to the hotel, but at our request to another location in Valencia. Thank you.
We wish the company growth and prosperity! We will definitely refer to them next time. We recommend to everyone!

We rested with our son in Valencia in November 2016 and used the service of this travel agency, went to the thermal springs and bodega. I liked the excursions, and the representative of the company Roman organized everything with dignity, turned out to be an interesting interlocutor. Therefore, I recommend to others, you can safely contact Myvalencia. Successful rest to everyone, and the development company.

Wonderful stay with great sincere service!

I express my deep gratitude to MyValencia and in particular to Roman. The excursion to the caves was amazing, and the visit to flamenco was the very cherry on the cake that leaves an aftertaste for the whole holiday in Valencia. I would like to dwell on this particular event, because, in addition to a really excellent dinner and great service, when the show began, the whole world disappeared around. And a little over an hour flashed by like a moment. This is not a tourist show, it is an action that is captivating with its energy and emotions, sincerely experienced by the artists, which is transmitted to the audience. Never and nowhere have I seen and experienced such a storm of feelings, although I have traveled half the world. As it turned out later, these were the most famous artists, some of the best. Would I have found this place myself? Unlikely. I looked for it beforehand and it was not on my list. I managed to meet and communicate with the artists, even - wonderful guys. If I return, I will definitely go again. And I highly recommend it to everyone! Coming back to MyValencia, Roman made the stay very comfortable. An interesting, attentive conversationalist, a good storyteller. Very punctual and obligatory. I was pleasantly surprised by the complete correspondence to reality with what is stated on the site. And, of course, I was pleasantly pleased with the fact of a free transfer to the airport when ordering two excursions. Agree, a trifle, but how nice. Thank you with all my heart, I wish you prosperity and will be happy to return!
