People have been fascinated by essential oils for a long time; especially by their remedial properties and wonderful aromas. This therapy is often called the science of sense because it combines touch and smell. The organic and ecologic oils used in aromatherapy affect the body through skin and respiratory pathways. Aroma therapy is used for prophylaxis, rehabilitation, or to increase the effectiveness of other treatment currently in use. Depending on the choice of essential oils the effect of therapy differs; it can be soothing, stimulating, arousing or making the breathing easier. In the sanatorium “Tulpė” aroma therapy is combined with music therapy enabling the client to feel even greater healing and wellness effect.

Application of electric current through the skin for the purpose of pain control. During the procedure, two or more electrodes are placed on the skin and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation is performed by modulating current pulse width, frequency and intensity. During the procedure, the patient experiences tingling effect of pulse currents. Therapeutic effects are noticeable after a single procedure.

Effects: highly effective at relieving sudden, acute and chronic pain, reducing inflammation, stimulating and normalizing stimulation and inhibition processes in the cortex.

The procedure is recommended for postoperative pain, peripheral nervous system diseases and injuries, pain syndrome and muscle weakness (neuritis, neuralgia, radiculopathy, polyneuropathy), inflammatory and degenerative diseases and injuries of the supporting locomotor apparatus (osteochondrosis, arthrosis, strained tendon), peripheral circulation disorders, vertebrogenic pain after sports injuries (strained muscles, bruising), stage I and II hypertonia, digestive diseases, obstipations, chronic muscle pain, chronic bone pain, pain caused by osteoarthritis, migraine and headaches.

This is a method of treatment using high-frequency alternating impulse current and high voltage. The procedure is recommended for those suffering from peripheral nervous system diseases, where patients experience circulatory disturbances and pain syndrome; it is also used to treat cardiovascular pathologies (Raynaud’s disease, migraine, etc.), impaired skin integrity and trophic ulcers, ear, nose, throat diseases and dental conditions. Therapeutic effect: relieves pain, improves circulation and improves immune function.  When using high-frequency currents, the effect always depends on the chosen procedure. The following physiological conditions occur during the procedure:

·   Slight increase of temperature, promoting cell metabolism and increasing oxygen absorption;

·   Expanded blood vessels and stimulated circulation;

·   Direct calming effect on nerve roots;

Low-intensity pulsed electromagnetic fields with varying frequency are used in BEMER therapy. They promote physiological processes of the body: microcirculation, blood oxygen saturation, removal of cell metabolites, and protein synthesis. Intensity of physical factors used in BEMER therapy corresponds to the natural electromagnetic fields of the body; therefore, the therapy helps to increase energy levels without any harmful side effects, effectively treating microcirculation, disorders of which are the primary cause of most chronic diseases and their progression.

The procedure effectively treats injuries, bone fractures, various wounds (including trophic ulcers, burns, etc.); damages of the supporting locomotor apparatus (acute and chronic joint inflammations, such as osteoporosis, rheumatism, arthritis), chronic pain, sleep disorders, consequences of stress; improves tissue circulation and stimulates the immune system. The procedure is used to prepare professional athletes for physical loads and for rehabilitation after the sporting events (it enhances performance and reduces the time of recovery).

Ultrasound therapy is also recommended after gynaecological, orthopaedic and other surgeries, since it promotes scar healing and reduces local inflammatory processes. This type of therapy is effective at treating chronic respiratory diseases: bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis, pneumonia, chronic sinusitis, etc.

Mud baths improve blood circulation and metabolism, remove toxic substances and slags from the body. Strengthens the immune system and improves the overall well-being of the body. Organic matter in the form of jelly, sapropel, is extracted from Lake Gervin, which is surrounded by forests.. It is an ecological material, formed without thousands of technogenic pollution over thousands of years, rich in vitamin B, amino acids, micro and macro elements and biostimulants. Sapropel is much more active and valuable than peat often used in mud baths or in therapeutic procedures by applying on the body. The appropriate rate of sapropel is chosen by the physician based on each individual's needs.
Sapropel applications promote local blood circulation, improving tissue nutrition, speeding up resorption of inflammation areas and reducing activity of the inflammatory process. Medicinal mud relieves pain, vascular spasms, reduces capillary permeability, and normalizes immunobiological and neurovegetative reactivity of the body. Sapropel is used for full-body wraps, hand baths, mineral water and mud baths.

 

Mineral water from “Vaidilutė“ spring, which due to its special chemical composition and physical features, has a positive effect on body‘s disordered functions, metabolic, biochemical and biophysical disturbances therefore is used for disease prevention, treatment and rehabilitation.  Chloride bromide sodium-potassium-calcium mineral water baths of high mineralization strengthen blood vessels lining, stimulate metabolic processes, and make the body resistant to adverse environmental impacts and diseases in pathogenesis of which immunity disorders take an important place. They are effective while treating immunity problems, dystrophic-degenerative processes in joints, sclerosis, obesity, alopecia, premature ageing, central nervous system and metabolic problems. Due to their effect muscles relax, vascular spasms are repressed, cardiac activity and neuro-regulative body functions improve. They are especially effective in healing certain circulatory, respiratory, digestive, neural, articular and gynaecological diseases.Relatively big amount of bromine in mineral water „Vaidilutė“ determines its relaxing effect on CNS (central nervous system), cutaneous receptors and skin palingenesis.
Pearl baths saturated with air bubbles. Temperature and mechanical factors affect nervous receptors of skin.

During the ozone therapy, a bath is filled with ozone-saturated water, which has beneficial effects on the circulatory system, improves metabolism and has disinfectant properties. Environmental pollution, poor diet and stress lead to the formation of harmful molecules – free radicals – in the body. They damage cells and interfere with metabolic processes speeding up cell aging, resulting in wrinkles and tired-looking skin. Ozone is most effective in neutralizing free radicals. Moreover, ozone stimulates collagen production, restoring skin firmness and freshness. Ozone penetrates damaged rather than healthy tissue restoring its previous structure and eliminating the reason of aging. It promotes lymph circulation preventing accumulation of toxins and combating “orange peel” skin. Ozone has beneficial effects on our immune system and serves as an excellent preventive measure of infectious diseases.

The lifting force of water helps to reduce the load on joints; therefore, aquabike exercise is recommended for orthopaedic patients: after joint replacement, knee and tarsal joint ligament surgeries, arthroscopic surgeries and Achilles tendon surgeries. It has been proven that water exercise reduces load on the cardiovascular system significantly; therefore, aquabike and aquatic treadmill exercise is recommended for cardiology and cardiac surgery patients. Due to the lower and more uniform load on the cardiorespiratory system, aquabike and aquatic treadmill exercise is ideal for respiratory patients. This type of exercise offers reduced load on joints, so it is recommended for those suffering from systemic diseases, such as fibromyalgia. Aquabike and aquatic treadmill exercise is safe for the joints; therefore, it is recommended for those suffering from rheumatic diseases and arthrosis. Throughout the exercise, patients are supervised by a physical therapist.
