- Reduce the pain of fibromyalgia with hydrotherapy :
Diffuse pain, migraines, sleep disorders, dry syndrome (eyes, mouth ...). These are the signs of fibromyalgia, a disease often misdiagnosed as these symptoms are common, and for which there is no medication. However, the EULAR (European League Against Rheumatism) has confirmed the interest of these multidisciplinary spa treatments (water care, physiotherapy, psy ...) that reduce pain and fatigue.

- Thermalism tales of anxiety
A study conducted three years ago showed that a spa treatment "Psy" was more effective than an antidepressant such as paroxetine (Deroxat). The thermal water would recharge the body with essential minerals for the nervous system. And the listening sessions would allow a letting go, essential to reduce the symptoms of anxiety (panic, heart acceleration, fatigue, sleep disorders ...).

- Hydrotherapy and Parkinson's disease:
These spa treatments target both the neurological aspect and the rheumatologic aspect of the disease. We combine care to fight against articular ankylosis that is established and promote muscle relaxation, and we also offer workshops to improve balance and motor skills. It is best to follow these cures soon after the diagnosis of the disease.
Where: in Néris-les-Bains and Lamalou-les-Bains.
To know. These medical cures are spread over 18 days of care and can be reimbursed by Social Security, if they have been prescribed.
