Used since the Romans' period, the salt baths of Turda are put forward by Ariesul Hotel and Treatment centre. The specialized personnel and adequate medical equipment offer treatment for the following diseases:

 

• degenerative rheumatism ( arthrosis affecting various areas, spondylosis, vertebral discopathies, aseptic bone necroses)

• non-acute inflammatory rheumatism (ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, reactive arthritis, gouty arthritis, chondrocalcinosis, rheumatoid polyarthritis)

• abarticular rheumatism (myalgia, periarthritis, tendinitis, tenosynovitis, epicondylites, bursitis, enthesitis, fibromyalgia)

• vertebral static disorders (kyphosis, scoliosis)

• post-traumatic sequaela ( contusion, wrick, luxation, fracture, meniscal lesion, lesions of the ligaments, muscular stretch, muscular hypotony and atrophy)

• recovery after neurosurgical and orthopaedic interventions (for prolapsed disk, articular prosthesis, etc.)

• perfipheral and central nervous system disorders (sciatic, cervicobrachial, intercostal, trigeminal neuralgia, facial and limb paresis, post cerebrovascular accident hemiparesis, overstrain astenoneurotic syndrome, Parkinson disease, polyneuropathies)

• peripheral circulatory disorders (Raynaud disease, acrocyanosis, obliterant arteriopathy)

• gynaecological diseases (chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, chronic annexitis and metroannexitis)

• chronic respiratory diseases (chronic obstructive bronchitis, bronchic asthma)

Therapy consists of physiotherapeutical procedures (galvanic baths, ionisations, galvanisations, diadynamic, Trabert, rectangular, exponential, TENS, interferential currents, ultrasounds, Magnetodiaflux), aerosolotherapy, massage, kinetotherapy as well as balneary natural factors - 37-38 degrees Celsius high salt mineral water and warm sapropelic mud wrap.

 

The therapeutic results rely on the complex effects as pain, inflammation, oedema relievers, circulation and local trophicity stimulation, metabolic improvement, muscular relaxation or tonification, resorptive effect, increase of tissue elasticity, neuromuscular stimulation, neurovegetative and endocrine balance. We employ valuable sapropelic muds and chlorosodic mineral waters of various hypo and hypertonic concentrations, as well as bicarbonate, calcic and magnesic waters.

 

Leisure activities: indoor swimming pool with warm salt water (the outdoor salt water swimming pool in the summer), sauna, gym, outdoor salt water swimming pool near the hotel.
