This is an integral part of the weight loss and cellulite removal programmes. Besides the evaluation of the basic metabolism, it gives us information on the hydration of the body and the quantity of muscle and fat mass, the excessive quantity of which can lead to serious health problems. It is precisely the information regarding muscle volume and fatty mass that makes the diagnostics of the body structure also an excellent informative diagnostic method when treating people with excessive body weight and people who do not exercise sufficiently, or a suitable method of following up the results in cases of individual persons who have decided on a more active way of life.

This type of diagnostics states the density of our bones. Old age, genetics, the way of life, the diet, the medications and, last but not least, the illnesses, all help to bring about a reduction of bone density, and successively an increased tendency of the bones to break. The examination is painless. Densitometry is recommended primarily to women experiencing menopausal symptoms, women who smoke, who do not exercise sufficiently and have an incorrect diet, as well as to people of average age who have recently suffered a break or fracture.

It forms a part of traditional Chinese medicine which is ever more recognised and practiced throughout Europe and America. According to traditional Chinese medicine, our health is based on the undisturbed flow of the body’s energy Chi (Qi) along the body’s meridians. The energy Chi consists of two opposites – Yin and Yang. If they are not in equilibrium, we develop an illness. By treating the energy channels with thin needles we stimulate the self-healing process of the body and restore the equilibrium. The acupuncture is based on the healing of the whole person: the body, spirit and mind. We may perform body AP (corporal), ear AP (auricular) and AP of the scalp (scalp). Acupuncture is most frequently performed by using disposable needles, but may, however, also be administered in form of electro acupuncture, cupping, etc. Acupuncture is extremely effective as a pain-alleviating therapy treating problems of the locomotor system and headaches, being, however, used also for the purpose of relaxation, to treat allergies, asthma, in stop smoking programmes and for other disorders.

This is an effective method of manipulating painful myofascial pressure points (trigger points) which can appear individually or in a greater number than in fibromyalgia. The method is very similar to acupuncture as it also works by inserting acupuncture needles into painful parts of the body.

A prepared substance is injected into the acupuncture points inducing a long lasting stimulation of these points in order to alleviate pain. The therapy helps treat problems related to the lower back, hips and knees.

Doctors perform infiltration of a painful point (block injection) in cases of extremely painful points.Indications are individual points of pain and trigger points in fibromyalgia.

It involves the injection of natural substances into critical points in order to reduce fat, improve circulation and induce a body firming and contouring process. It has proven successful in removing cellulite softening effectively the connective tissue and reducing the swelling. The treatment is performed once a week. The first noticeable results can been seen after four weeks, while the optimal results are achieved after 10 or 12 applications.

Brine inhalations are one of the traditional therapies at our Terme & Wellness LifeClass. The mixture of brine dispersed by aerosol clears the passageways of the respiratory system. The inhaler dispels brine and minerals into minute particles by help of ultrasound effect enabling the droplets to penetrate deeply into the small airways of the lung and, via lung air sacs, into the blood stream. Inhalations help coughing up the mucus and assist in the renewal of the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract. They strengthen the body’s immune system. They are recommended for people suffering from asthma, respiratory allergies as well as for people recovering from a viral or bacterial infection of the respiratory passageways. Brine inhalation treatment is very beneficial also to people coming from polluted areas, to smokers and people, wishing to give up smoking.
