Thermal baths The benefits of thermal waters

By their very nature, our exceptional thermal waters have a real anti-stress effect and significantly reduce muscular pain. What’s more, their unique properties also improve your immune system and have a general tonic effect.

On the digestive front, the spa treatment has a clear effect on colonic motility, thanks to the waters’ rich magnesium and trace element content. Here are just some of the benefits of these remarkable waters:

An anti-inflammatory action on the intestinal mucosa
A repairing effect on the intestinal barrier
Regulates transit (constipation, diarrhoea, alternating waters)

In terms of rheumatology, the exceptional silicon content of the waters improves results in this type of pathology. Silicon is an essential constituent of cartilage, helping to solubilise microcrystals and regulate calcification processes in inflammatory rheumatism.

On a general level, thanks to its richness in mineral salts and trace elements, in particular magnesium and lithium, the drink cure helps :

Regulation of the neuro-vegetative system
An anti-stress effect
Reduces cramps and muscle spasms
Improved immune defences
A tonic effect on general health

Based on three biomedical revolutions, it is based on personalised care tailored to each situation. Careful attention is paid to the intestinal microbiota, using all the properties of the waters of Châtel-Guyon.
