Natural healing resources in Bad Tatzmannsdorf

Little Bad Tatzmannsdorf is a well-known historical, cultural, and scenic village in the Austrian state of Burgenland. But the special provision of three natural healing resources that can enhance your health and quality of life is what distinguishes this town from other tourist spots. This is the mineral thermal water with sodium hydrogen carbonate chloride, the carbonated medical water, and the Bad Tatzmannsdorfer Heilmoor.

Bad Tatzmannsdorfer Heilmoor

A unique kind of peat known as the Bad Tatzmannsdorfer Heilmoor, or the healing moor, was created thousands of years ago by the breakdown of plants and animals in a wetland setting. Numerous chemical and inorganic compounds with skin-softening, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory effects are found in the moor. A major draw of Bad Tatzmannsdorf, the moor has been used as a natural cure for over 120 years.

On the afflicted bodily parts, such the muscles, joints, or spine, the moor is applied like a pack. Owing to the moor’s excellent water retention and thermal conductivity, the pack can be heated up to 46°C without damaging the skin or circulation. Invading the skin, the heat and the moor’s ingredients boost the immune system, metabolism, and blood flow. The following conditions can be helped with by the moor pack:

Wear and tear of the spine and joints
Rheumatic diseases
Chronic pain
Orthopedic surgeries and joint replacements
Osteoporosis

Together with enhancing the look and elasticity of the skin, the moor pack can also have a calming and relaxing effect on the mind and attitude. The moor is put back in its natural habitat after the treatment so it can grow back and have its healing properties.

Carbonated medicinal water

One such natural resource for which Bad Tatzmannsdorf is well-known is sparkling water, or carbonated medicinal water. Underground springs that have been recorded since 1621 provide the water. Because carbon dioxide naturally carbonates water, it is rich in minerals including calcium, magnesium, sodium, and bicarbonate. One can take the water as a bath or as a drink; it tastes revitalizing and pleasant.

Your health may gain from the carbonated medicinal water in a number of ways.

Improving the digestion and the kidney function
Balancing the acid-base balance and the electrolyte levels
Enhancing the bone density and the dental health
Reducing the risk of kidney stones and gout
Lowering the blood pressure and the cholesterol levels
Boosting the energy and the mood

The minerals and bubbles in the carbonated medicinal water make a nice and energising sensation on the skin when taken as a bath. Together with relaxing the muscles and nerves, the bath can enhance blood circulation, oxygen delivery, and heart function. Given that carbon dioxide is absorbed by the skin and then exhaled through the lungs, the bath can also benefit the respiratory system. The REDUCE Kurmittelhaus offers two springs—the Marienquelle and the Therme 72—from which to select the carbonated therapeutic water. Another free water source in the Kurpark is the Wetschquelle.

Sodium hydrogen carbonate chloride mineral thermal water

Of the three natural therapeutic resources in Bad Tatzmannsdorf, the thermal water, or sodium hydrogen carbonate chloride mineral water, is the youngest. From a depth of around 1,000 meters, the water rises, heated by geothermal energy and enhanced with minerals including sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, and sulphate. About 72°C is the water temperature; before being used for therapy or bathing, it is cooled to a pleasant degree.

Your health may gain from the thermal water in several ways, such:

Relieving the muscle tension and the joint pain
Supporting the treatment of back pain and musculoskeletal disorders
Promoting the recovery from chronic fatigue and stress
Improving the skin’s hydration and regeneration
Enhancing the immune system and the detoxification

One unique kind of therapy known as spinal extension treatment, or hydroextension, can also be performed with the warm water. The intervertebral discs are relieved of strain and the spine is gently stretched by wearing a weight belt in a heated water pool. This can benefit illnesses including:
