Back pain adé

Both physical and mental stress can cause back pain. Weak back muscles, one-sided movements or long periods of sitting can cause these complaints to occur occasionally. If left untreated or without countermeasures, chronic impairment can develop. The prevention of back pain is therefore very important in spa medicine. The spine has physiological curvatures at the level of the neck, back and lumbar region, which have the purpose of holding the load of the head and chest and cushioning any overloading that may occur from the outside or from placing the feet on the ground. Even though the spine is structured to withstand loads up to 1000 kg, many people suffer from regular pain in the neck, back and lumbar sacrum.

What is it about?

Diseases of the cardiovascular system continue to lead the statistics of our civilization diseases. Most of them are chronic diseases, which means that at the beginning of this disease there are reversible dysfunctions, which can be influenced by a suitable treatment in such a way that the further progression can be slowed down.

What can you do?

This aspect is of great importance in the therapeutic care of spa medicine. Carbonic acid baths have been scientifically proven not only to promote blood circulation, but also to regulate blood pressure by gently lowering high blood pressure. In addition, the curative application improves the blood flow properties and also dilates the pre-capillary arterioles. This excellent natural effect of carbonic acid baths is optimally supplemented by regular exercise and sport. A vital diet and stress reduction further contribute significantly to reducing the risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, a cardiovascular cure is equally focused on the way to a healthy lifestyle.

What is spa medicine all about?

Spa medicine has always known about the importance of mental well-being for maintaining and regaining health. Whereas in the past we promoted well-being in the spa primarily by creating a pleasant ambience, today at REDUCE Gesundheitsresort Bad Tatzmannsdorf we also use our psychological knowledge.

Numerous physical and mental illnesses could be avoided if people behaved differently or if their coping strategies were more efficient.

What is recommended?

Especially the relief from everyday life and the "time for oneself" during a cure or GVA are good prerequisites for a mental as-is analysis. Here and in the implementation of possible change requests, the health psychology in our resort helps with a wide range of offers.

Depending on the individual situation, different forms of health psychological support are recommended. Group workshops motivate participants to work together to find ways out of a problem that affects all participants equally. Lectures are valuable impulses and food for thought for a new, health-oriented lifestyle.

What is Long/POst Covid?

Recovered, but not yet back in life before. The late effects of corona, often referred to as long covid or post-COVID, can affect anyone, regardless of the severity of a course in corona disease. Most commonly, symptoms such as persistent fatigue, chronic pain, difficulty concentrating and/or shortness of breath interfere with coping with jobs and everyday life. Psychological complaints - caused, for example, by severe social restrictions during quarantine - also continue to burden people long after they have apparently overcome the disease. 

The medical basis of our Long/Post Covid concept is a holistic approach of mental health, special physiotherapy and the relaxing effect of natural healing resources. The aim is to stabilize people's attitude to life again and to make the body fit and more efficient. It starts with a medical check-up, where symptoms are identified and an individual therapy plan is created.

What does the therapy concept look like?

The therapy concept was developed by the head physiotherapist Theresa Mayer and the health psychologist Katrin Supper. The focus is on gently increasing both physical and mental fitness. Theresa Mayer uses the pacing method. The Pacing method can be explained best with the word activity management. This means that in the case of an existing exhaustion syndrome, overload is avoided and thus a gentle use of one's own resources is learned.
