Getting Treatment in Romanian Treatment Resorts 

  Traveling in
Romania is an experience that will surely remove all your preconceived notions about this European country.  Don’t think that Dracula or the gypsies are the defining elements of a trip in
Romania.  In fact, those are just a small preview of what really defines the modern
Romania.  The only way you can learn what this country can truly offer from the touristy point of view is by coming here and exploring the diversity of options
Romania has to offer as a European destination.

   We guarantee you that nothing you have ever heard about
Romania will match what you will find here, and you will come back again and again and why not, even relocate here. The natural resources of the country are a real treat for the unsuspecting tourist.  Therefore, you must find out about the famous natural thermal spring and their healing power.  Numerous spa resorts were developed along those natural thermal springs and offer full relaxation and recovery at only a small fraction of the normal western prices.

  The Romanian spa resorts represent an alternative for health, and they are great destinations not only for the tourists that intend to try the healing power of the thermal springs, but for the ones that ate caught in the storm of an overactive life and are simply searching for relaxation and fun.

   Many tourists try to escape stress and daily activities by choosing spa resorts as their vacation destination.

ü      In the Romanian spa resorts, the tourists can escape the daily stress, maintain their positive tonus and recover their health; we could say that coming here is not a recommendation, but most of the times, a necessity.

ü      Whether you are looking for relaxation or you want to try the mineral and thermal springs or the mud baths for ameliorating various health affections,
Romania can be a miraculous solution.

ü        There are no more than 3000 thermal springs in
Romania, and the tradition of the thermal spas goes back in the ancient times of the Romans, who founded many of the spa resorts.

  Tourists from all over the world choose Romanian spa resorts in order to get treatment under the attentive supervision of the best medical staff.  You can get treatment here for various affections, such as rheumatic, cardio-vascular, respiratory affections or dermatologic and gynecologic disorders.  All treatments develop under the supervision f the medical staff, the treatment usually taking 2 or 3 weeks to finalize.  More than that, they can also enjoy the spectacular views that those spas usually offer.  We know that you are anxious to find which treatment resorts in
Romania are the best, so here we go:

  1. Baile Herculane is a treatment resort with an ancient tradition, as it was established by the Romans in theCerna
    Valley, a wonderful region in the southern Carpathians.  This is the oldest spa resort in
    Romania, a place preferred by the roman aristocrats,

§         You can find here over 15 thermal and mineral springs that can be effectively used in treating any rheumatic, nutritional and respiratory affections.

§         The accommodation options are great and include both hotels and pensions, which can easily satisfy any tourist.

§         The name of the resort was given after the roman god Hercules, and you can visit in the old centre of Baile Herculane a bronze statue of Hercule from 1874, the symbol of the resort.

   The healing properties of the thermal springs that contain sulfur, clorine, magnesium, calcium or oligo-minerals, the tonic waters and the powerful negative ionization of the air are well-known.

  If you decide to visit Baile Herculane, you will definitely have to make some choices, as the treatment properties of the resort are complemented by the natural beauty of the mountains.  Every day you spend here can be unforgettable, by visiting the caves, springs, the natural keys in the mountains or the churches.  New wonders will reveal themselves to you during a vacation in Baile Herculane.

  Here are 5 hot tips on what to do here:

TIP #1 Go to “7 Springs”, about 7 kilometers from the resort.  You will find here a pool with Olympic dimensions, with thermal water coming straight from the mountain. 

TIP #2 Go hiking on one of the several mountain tracks.  I recommend you to follow my favorite route: The Munk Spring- the Red Spring- theSteam
Cave (56°C) – Adam’s Cave (which is 169 meters long) – The Outlaws’ Cave (143 meters long). This will take you about 3 hours to follow and it is marked by a yellow dot sign.

TIP #3 Get some treatment including hydrotherapy massage, electrotherapy, sauna and indoor/outdoor pools with thermal water.

TIP #4 Taste some of the Romanian food specialties.

TIP #5 Visit the original “Roman baths” at the Roman hotel.

  1. Baile Felix is the largest spa resort in
    Romania, in the north-east of the country.  The resort is famous for the thermal springs and the sapropelic mud, which are efficiently combined for the cure of the rheumatic arthritis, the lumbago or gynecologic disorders.

    • There is archeological proof that the springs in the region were used for the treatment of various affections since the year 1000!
    • The water temperature of the thermal springs can reach up to 49°C.

   Even if the main purpose of getting here might be the treatment, the entertainment options are not to be neglected either.  The botanical garden shelters rare species of water lilies and on the Somleu hill, you can visit the paleontologist reservation Betfia (famous for the vertebrate fossils and the Betfia Avenal).

  1. Sovata

   Sovata is a spa resort hidden in the Transylvanian forests which will charm you with its helio-thermal lake – Ursu (The Bear).  What makes this lake so special is that the surface temperature is lower and as you go deeper in the lake the water temperature rises, unlike the common lakes, which are colder as you go deeper. 

   The sapropelic mud along the salted water of the lake is the perfect cure for any gynecologic affection, rheumatism or for the peripheral nervous affections.  Choosing Sovata as your destination for a treatment will turn to be a pleasant and useful experience, as the natural resources of mother earth are successfully completed by the modern hotels and the latest medical technology.

§         Other spa resorts in the mountain areas are Calimanesti, Baile Olanesti, Tusnad or Govora.

  1. Mangalia and other treatment and leisure resorts on the shores of the
    Black Sea (such as Eforie Nord, Neptun) are ideal for anyone who wants to try the mud treatments.

§         The mud used for the treatment is not just any mud; it is rich in minerals and it is used in the treatment of rheumatism and various affections.  The medical staff and the specialized clinics are well prepared and accessible all year round.  The success of coming in the resorts at the
Black Sea is a perfect combination of sun and sea breeze with the benefits of the natural treatments.
