Neurological disorders
Thanks to the unique therapeutic springs of Františkovy Lázně, we can effectively help patients afflicted by specific neurological disorders, such as polyneuropathy. The local resources are rich in carbon dioxide gas, which substantially supports the blood circulation to microscopic vessels in the acral parts of the body. At the same time, these small blood vessels and their state are key for the nourishment and regeneration of the tiny nerve endings that are afflicted by polyneuropathy.Our patients thus gradually overcome unpleasant tingling and burning, and we can give them back the disrupted or lost sensitivity and movement in the fingers and legs. The effects of the natural therapeutic resources are boosted by exercising with our experienced physical therapists, who, thanks to applying special facilitative techniques, strengthen weakened or paralysed muscles. Another disease that spa treatment successfully alleviates are radicular syndromes. These most often manifest in pains of the spine and pains that shoot into the extremities, usually due to herniated discs.
The spa treatment is based on the expertise of highly qualified physical therapists, who use manual traction and other techniques of myoskeletal medicine to reduce the pressure of the compressed or irritated nerve root. Pain is also alleviated by the effects of physical therapy, e.g., various types of electrotherapy currents, distant electrotherapy, and so on.
