Pain is a complex and precious symptom: a
major alarm-bell that must be taken seriously or
it will last a lifetime. With regard to joints,
pain is often a symptom of a muscular
contraction. A contraction is an involuntary
tension of muscular fibers and can be caused by
different factors: it is often an expression of
a "vicious circle".
For example, if a certain movement causes a pain,
it usually means that a group of muscles is
contracting to avoid that pain (this is what can
be called antalgic contraction) and if this
contraction persists, the consequence is a
muscular suffering that raises pain, and so on...
main effects of
thermal waters on pain:
The
thermal water, thanks to its
particular characteristics and its warm
temperature, reduce the pain caused by a
joint or muscle problem, allowing some
movements otherwise impossible to
perform.
By
raising the internal temperature of the
body, thermal water reduces nerve
stimulation that usually transmits pain.
The
same raising of temperature produces
certain substances (endorphins) that
have an analgesic power.
The final synergic effect is a general
reduction of pain.
Which are the pain categories that can
benefit from thermal water?
Basically thermal water can have
a healing effect on our musculoskeletal
system and on our joints.
Artrosis:
it is a cronic-degenerative illness of
joint cartilage;
Arthritis:
it is a joint inflammation that can be
caused by different factors;
Muscular
pains;
Vertebral
pains: with this word we refer to
all kinds of back pains.
Especially if carried out in water, kinesitherapy
(movement cure), is certainly an efficacious alternative
to many medicines that can be useful but at the same
time have several contraindications and negative effects.
45 minutes of treatment in thermal water could be enough
to reduce many aches; by combining the effect of water
to a scientifically determined movement can lead to
incredible results.
