Dr. Richard Kitaeff, Director

Our clinic, one of the oldest and largest that emphasizes non-surgical, non-pharmacological therapies in the treatment of pain and injury, has now had a three year experience of using the medical balneotherapy treatment program.

Over this period, it has been noted by our physicians and physical therapists, as well as by referring pain specialists, that the course of balneotherapy has produced a remarkable acceleration in relief of pain and inflammation in cases of arthritis, tendonitis , disc herniation, cervical sprain, fibromyalgia and chronic headache syndromes. Long-term results have been obtained in a period of weeks rather than several months.

I am therefore pleased to recommend the medical balneotherapy treatment as a valuable component of any pain rehabilitation program.
