European level treatment costs money, many people think so, but in reality it is not so. It is in winter that resorts and clinics in Germany, France, the Czech Republic, Israel and Slovakia provide excellent discounts for accommodation and treatment. The main thing is to choose the right resorts for the treatment of joints and remember that for a complete recovery you need at least two weeks.
In Germany, medicine has always been at a high level and German medical centers and clinics, thermal and balneological resorts are known all over the world. It is here that spa treatment of rheumatoid arthritis will give a positive result; the spa waters have an excellent effect on the musculoskeletal system and regenerate body functions.
There are also resorts for the treatment of joints in the Czech Republic, the famous Karlovy Vary and Marianske Lazne, they are in no way inferior to German resorts, only the price for sanatorium treatment is much lower.
Spa treatment of rheumatoid arthritis is also widespread in Saki (Crimea). Here arthritis has been treated with mud for many centuries, and this method is the most effective. Treatment of joints with mud only promotes rapid fusion of bones in case of injury, reduces pain, improves the plasticity of joints, reduces inflammation and the joints become strong and mobile.
The most popular resorts for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis are located at the Dead Sea in Israel. The miraculous power of the sun, water and mud at the Dead Sea is known all over the world; all this together relieves joints and reduces stress for patients with arthritis. Treatment involves lifestyle changes and strict adherence to a therapy program developed by leading specialists. Along with conservative therapy, balneotherapy, thalassotherapy, sea baths, mud and algae wraps are prescribed.
Mineral waters and medicinal mud at the Banya Kanizha resort are used in the treatment of rheumatic diseases, and are also used for the treatment and prevention of diseases of the bone, joint and musculoskeletal system (underwater traction of the spine) On New Year's Eve: gala dinner 12/31/13. with a musical program (performance of the local group “Jokerbend”), national dishes of this region (Vojvodina) and champagne at 12 o’clock
Banja Kaniza is located in Vojvodini (Bačka) near the border of Serbia and Hungary. (15 km), 40 km from the city of Subotica, 120 km from the city of Novi Sad. It is located on the banks of the Tisza River at an altitude of 83 m. The climate is continental, summers are warm, winters are cold.
The resort is located in a beautiful location, just fifteen kilometers from the Serbian-Hungarian border, at a distance of 220 km from the capital of Serbia - Belgrade. The climate is temperate continental with mild winters, fresh snow and sunny summers. Lots of greenery and forests, complete absence of fog and air pollution.
The Institute for Specialized Rehabilitation in the Kanizha resort is also well known as a place where various types of rheumatism are treated (chronic articular forms of rheumatism (spondylosis, arthritis, osteochondrosis, arthrosis deformans), extra-articular forms of rheumatism, post-traumatic conditions (conditions after fractures of bones and joints, conditions after orthopedic operations, as well as conditions resulting from disorders of the locomotor system and peripheral nervous system after spinal surgery (damage and diseases of the peripheral and central nervous system).
In Kanizha there is also a pediatric physiatry department, where patients with cerebral palsy are also restored to health.
There is a Special Rehabilitation Hospital here, which offers 300 beds in its own buildings.
The main natural factors of the resort:
Such a common disease as inflammation of the joints, arthritis, lends itself perfectly to sanatorium-resort therapy. Modern specialized resorts have in their arsenal all kinds of means and techniques for the effective treatment of arthritis in a sanatorium.
The most effective methods of therapy include balneological procedures and pelotherapy (mud therapy). Among the procedures of the first type, the best results are provided by baths - hydrogen sulfide, iodine-bromine, sodium chloride and radon.
Each type of bath has its own mechanism of action on the disease and on the human body as a whole, thus, only a highly qualified specialist can prescribe this or that set of procedures after a comprehensive examination, correct diagnosis of the form of the disease, as well as conclusions about the general health of the patient (should exclude the presence of contraindications).
For example, hydrogen sulfide baths help improve blood circulation and enhance metabolism in the tissues of the joint affected by the disease; such procedures are indicated for rheumatoid arthritis with a minimal degree of activity or with no signs of inflammation.
Salt or sodium chloride baths are prescribed for the gouty form of arthritis in the acute stage, as well as for the rheumatoid form with a minimal degree of activity and in a mild form. These procedures produce an anti-inflammatory effect, stimulate metabolism, reduce pain and increase joint mobility.
Radon baths, in turn, are recommended for patients to treat arthritis in a sanatorium if the disease is gouty or rheumatoid with no inflammation. The effect of the baths is to stimulate metabolic processes in the tissues of the joint, and, in addition, to remove excess uric acid from the body.
The pain that people with arthritis experience is, they say, unimaginable. Sometimes it seems to some of them that the only relief for them could only be death.
In the United States, arthritis is the number one cause of disability. As noted by doctors, treatment for arthritis of the joints is required not only by older people; today the most common type of this disease - rheumatoid arthritis - most often affects people from 25 to 50 years of age. In the UK alone there are 14.5 thousand children with arthritis. The number of people suffering from arthritis is steadily increasing every year. Although Africa and Asia are not as severely affected by this disease compared to the European population, people there are increasingly using medical and traditional methods of treating arthritis. WHO proclaimed a “Decade to Fight Joint and Bone Diseases” from 2000 to 2010. Despite the fact that during this period doctors made special efforts to alleviate the suffering of patients, inviting them to specialized medical institutions and sanatoriums, arthritis has not yet lost its position. Can sick people hope for healing?
What is arthritis? Translated from Greek - “inflammation of the joint.” Not only joints are affected, but bones, muscles, ligaments and tendons. The two most common forms of arthritis are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic disease, aggravated by periods of relapse, which in severe cases can lead to disability. It is characterized by damage to small joints, which gradually become deformed and can no longer function normally. Rheumatoid arthritis most often develops in people aged 35-50 years. Genetic predisposition contributes to the disease. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis require long-term treatment. Along with medicinal methods, physiotherapy and sanatorium-resort treatment are actively used, which are the most important factors for a positive impact on patients diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis.
Patients are accepted by many resorts located in different parts of the country.
Sanatoriums with mud and sulfide resources:
Mud resorts with sodium chloride and other mineral waters:
Resorts with sulfide waters (without therapeutic mud):
Balneological resorts with radon waters:
Resorts with low-mineralized thermal waters:
In general, rheumatoid arthritis is treated in sanatoriums, rather in the final stages of treatment. A course of spa treatment calms the nervous system, improves the condition of joints and metabolism.
Joint diseases very often become chronic, so the issue of their treatment is always relevant. For acute symptoms and emergency conditions, a course of procedures is carried out in clinics or medical centers that offer conservative and surgical treatment.
However, undergoing a sanatorium-resort course after the main treatment plays a very important role in consolidating the results obtained and preventing exacerbations. If you do this regularly, you can keep your joints in excellent working condition for many years.

Natural remedies are widely used in the treatment of joint diseases. Thus, mud therapy helps balance metabolic processes, improves blood circulation and relieves inflammation.
Mineral waters, in addition, accelerate tissue restoration processes. Thermal springs warm up sore joints and promote greater penetration of beneficial substances into the tissues, which allows you to get excellent results and ensure at least a long-term remission.
The most common problems arise with the knee joints; they suffer more from arthrosis. Almost all resorts with thermal and mud springs are suitable for the treatment of arthrosis of the knee joint.
It is somewhat more complicated with coxarthrosis of the hip joint, where treatment requires careful diagnosis to determine the degree of tissue destruction. Further, depending on the results of the examination, drug or surgical treatment is prescribed, after which, as a rule, the patient is recommended for rehabilitation measures in sanatoriums.
Germany is a leader in the treatment of coxarthrosis. In this country you can get the full amount of help for this disease.
Today in many countries there are many sanatoriums where joints are treated and rehabilitation after injuries is carried out, but the Czech Republic deserves special attention in this area.

Bay leaf is considered the most powerful folk remedy for removing accumulated salts from the body. Take 20-30 bay leaves, pour two glasses of boiling water, boil for 5 minutes, then leave in a thermos for about 3-4 hours.
This decoction must be taken in small sips. The entire decoction should be spread over 12 hours. Continue this way for 3 days, after a week of break the treatment should be repeated. This treatment of joints with folk remedies is carried out after you cleanse the intestines.
If not, then an allergic release will occur under the influence of the bay leaf. If frequent urination occurs, for example, every half hour, this means that salts begin to intensively dissolve and be excreted from the body. After a week, the course is repeated. Treatment is carried out 1–2 times a year.
Good results can be obtained by visiting a unique place for treatment in Hungary - Lake Heviz.
The thermal waters (you can swim here all year round) and the mud of this lake have a very strong effect and significantly restore the musculoskeletal system.
In general, Hungary has the largest number of mineral and thermal springs in Europe, and many of them have become the basis for the work of sanatoriums with rehabilitation programs for joint diseases.
Magnificent (they are called royal) resorts with thermal waters that treat orthopedic diseases are Aachen in Germany and Baden in Austria.
Aachen has the hottest springs in all of Central Europe, and this resort specializes in treating joints. Baden is one of the best and most famous health resorts in the world, where they offer a variety of treatment and rehabilitation programs.
To prevent the occurrence of arthrosis of the joints, it is necessary to minimize the static load on the joints. Avoid constantly wearing high heels, do not sit with your legs crossed, alternate between standing and sitting positions. Get rid of excess weight, if any. Losing weight will benefit both the joints and blood vessels of the lower extremities.
Try not to lift heavy objects. “Unload” your joints after a working day - take a lying position, do the “bicycle” exercise several times. In the summer, give your joints a break - swim more, do underwater gymnastics.
Of course, when we talk about arthritis and arthrosis, or in general about the treatment of joint diseases in Israel, it is impossible not to talk about the Dead Sea - this huge healing source in a unique corner of nature, where literally everything heals: water, mud, sand, air, climate.
This area is home to many hotels and medical centers offering wellness treatments to treat, maintain and strengthen joints.
Popular resorts of the Dead Sea:
To treat arthritis and arthrosis of the knee joint, it is not necessary to go abroad; you can also turn to domestic specialists in Moscow, where all this is treated just as well:

3 countries where it is better to treat joints:
For more information, see the Orthopedics section.
The Israeli Dead Sea coast is famous for its numerous sanatoriums and health resorts. Diseases of the musculoskeletal system are their profile. Treatment and relaxation here form a single whole; they not only affect the disease itself, but also allow you to find inner harmony.
Eastern practitioners teach that the source of our illnesses lies within us. Modern Western doctors agree and say that diseases arise from stress in the psycho-emotional sphere and nervous system. Sanatorium treatment at the Dead Sea allows you to restore internal imbalances and solve the root cause of illness.
Treatment of joints at the Dead Sea consists of sanatorium treatment and additional medical procedures. Moreover, the sanatorium type of treatment is traditionally given preference. The components of natural treatment are:
The 40% salinity of the Dead Sea does not allow living organisms and plants, for which water is a permanent habitat, to exist in it. However, water enriched with salts in such a high concentration has a healing and general strengthening effect on the human body. Highly concentrated natural salt water therapy allows you to:
Healing water helps accelerate regenerative processes, slows down the aging process, and improves blood circulation.
Among other things, water with a high salt concentration has unique buoyant properties, allowing you to balance in water without putting in almost any effort. This relaxes muscles and ligaments, making joints less stiff.
The water temperature in the sea is comfortable all year round: in summer it is about 30 degrees, in winter it drops closer to 20 degrees.
Dead Sea mud is extracted from its bottom, where it is produced by bacteria and microorganisms of the genus fungi. Highly mineralized sulfide muds are enriched with bromine, magnesium, iodine, calcium, iron, gases, and biologically active substances that help treat joint diseases and have an anti-inflammatory effect.
One of the features of the Dead Sea mud is its fine structure, due to which the mud has a cream-like consistency.
Dead Sea mud:
The air in the Dead Sea area is clean because there are no industrial enterprises in this region. There is a semi-desert landscape and a climate with low humidity and high atmospheric pressure.
You can breathe well here, there is no stifling hot weather, and you also feel cheerful due to the high pressure.
There are no special contraindications for spa treatment at the Dead Sea. It is possible that older tourists living in areas where low atmospheric pressure predominates, such as the Baltic region, will not be very comfortable due to the prevalence of high atmospheric pressure in Israel. Acclimatization depends on the adaptive abilities of the body. For the same reason, the Dead Sea is also not recommended for sensitive hypertensive patients, as are all other places on earth with high blood pressure.
In addition, Israel has active sun. Staying in this country can be problematic for people whose skin does not tolerate the sun well.
In any case, in all Dead Sea sanatoriums, patients are under the supervision of doctors. Individual contraindications are possible at the discretion of physicians.
Spa balneological treatment is an excellent option for patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The complexity of the disease, its autoimmune nature, as well as hereditary causes, necessitate complex therapy, which also includes medication and physiotherapy. A feature of Israeli sanatoriums is that drug treatment is not the main thing, and although it is certainly impossible to do without it, the remedies offered by nature provide supportive therapy and have a huge psychotherapeutic effect.
Israeli doctors have developed special treatment packages that can be adjusted to the individual needs of each patient.
As a type of joint disease, psoriatic arthritis is sometimes accompanied by psoriasis. In these cases, Dead Sea water is doubly indicated, since dermatological diseases and skin manifestations accompanying other diseases are perfectly treated with biologically active components dissolved in sea water, thermal mud and air. Inflammatory processes in the joints recede.
In addition to the balneological complex, the treatment of psoriatic arthritis includes:

The causes of arthrosis are mainly the aging of the body and the accompanying degenerative processes in the joints:
In addition, arthrosis is accompanied by a number of other diseases, in particular the cardiovascular system. All this suggests that treatment of patients with arthrosis should be comprehensive and affect not only diseased joints, but also improve the health of the body as a whole.
Clinics and sanatoriums on the Israeli Dead Sea coast conduct special computer diagnostics using the AMSAT system, based on the study of the electrical conductivity of the body and organs.
Diagnostics allows you to choose the optimal way to eliminate existing disorders not only in the joints, but also related diseases.
Open statistics show that the vast majority of patients diagnosed with arthrosis have improvements after the first course of treatment at the Dead Sea. To maintain positive dynamics, patients with arthrosis need periodic annual visits to the Dead Sea resorts.
The cost of treatment in sanatoriums and clinics on the Israeli Dead Sea coast will average about $1,000 per week.
When treating joint diseases, a longer stay is indicated to consolidate the effect: up to 3-4 weeks. In this case, the cost of treatment will be $2500-3000.
The price includes the following approximate list of sanatorium services:
The actual cost will depend not only on the disease and duration of treatment, but also on the time of year, since the Dead Sea coast is a resort that, like all other resorts, has seasonal declines in attendance with lower costs and seasonal increases when costs increase.
Osteoarthritis of the knee joint, rheumatoid arthritis and other connective tissue lesions are serious diseases that currently cannot be cured only with medication. But if, along with taking medications, you attend physiotherapeutic procedures, which are successfully used in sanatoriums, the patient’s condition will improve significantly:
For this purpose, our Lago-Naki sanatorium uses modern diagnostic facilities, advanced equipment and the latest procedures for joint restoration in combination with traditional methods of Chinese medicine. Our center is suitable for anyone who needs a full or partial course of treatment for arthritis.
You can not only improve your body health, but also have a good rest. The region where the Lago-Naki health resort is located is located in a unique natural area with invigorating mountain air and a pleasant climate. Therefore, we recommend our guests to come here regularly.
For the treatment of arthritis, the sanatorium develops an individual program taking into account the characteristics of the disease of each client. In addition, we offer a number of accompanying healing procedures that will be useful in a set of measures to heal joints.
The treatment program for joint arthrosis at the Lago-Naki sanatorium may include the following procedures:
Even minimal physical activity is carried out under the supervision of physiotherapists and trainers, so the risk of injury and aggravation of the disease is minimized.
Each of the above procedures helps to cope with the disease in its own way. Taken together, they are very effective, and not all sanatoriums treating arthritis in the Krasnodar region offer such a unique set of techniques. We have developed our program based on the experience and qualifications of our leading specialists.
It is recommended to visit a sanatorium for treatment of arthrosis at least once a year. Many of our guests note that the symptoms of the disease disappear even faster than they expected, and throughout the year there has been a positive trend of improvement. This provides grounds to guarantee the effectiveness of our program. Improvements after the basic course become noticeable much faster than with conventional drug treatment.
Our sanatorium “Lago-Naki” provides treatment for joint diseases all year round. Guests can stay in one of the comfortable rooms of a suitable category.
You can order a basic treatment program for deforming arthrosis at the Lago-Naki sanatorium or other joint diseases, as well as additional procedures, for example, a swimming pool or yoga classes. Therefore, the price and duration of the course for each guest are calculated individually.
Our health resort employs experienced physiotherapists, masters of manual therapy, rheumatologists and other professionals who will help restore the lost health of the musculoskeletal system. The sanatorium is not overcrowded with patients, like city clinics; here you will receive truly high-quality treatment and can have a good rest, enjoying nature and tranquility.
You can calculate the cost, book a room and learn about all the features of the joint treatment program by calling our manager.

As for the resorts of Georgia, such a resort may be Tskhalbubo, famous for its mud and mineral waters. But the medical base and accommodation were not developed there after the 1990s. Therefore, with all my great sympathy for Georgia, I would advise you to consider other resorts.
Of the mud quality comparable to Georgia and the total cost of the trip (as well as flight time), I would recommend Slovakia, where arthrosis, arthritis, and diseases of the musculoskeletal system in general are effectively treated.
There, the resorts Piestany Smrdaky and Trencianske Teplice specialize in this profile. These are world-class hospitals at very affordable prices.
The time you chose for treatment is quite fortunate.
And in Slovakia it is also one of the most picturesque seasons. If you have any questions, write to me, I’ll try to help you figure it out.
For medicinal purposes, mineral water is used in the form of baths, and mud and peat are used in the form of wraps and applications.
Active factors: presence of free sulfur in the composition, natural water temperature.
There is relief from joint and muscle pain due to muscle relaxation and improved blood circulation.
In addition, all of these resorts have swimming pools with mineral water with a rich composition of active chemical compounds. In this case, the absorption of beneficial components by the skin occurs; provides a relaxing effect for joints, muscles, and an effect on the nerve endings of the skin.
So feel free to contact specialists in the field. Approximate cost of a health tour for 2 weeks, 2 times. meals and treatments (2 per day) - from 900 euros.
For diseases of the musculoskeletal system:
Taking radon procedures leads to a decrease in inflammatory processes and an increase in mobility in damaged joints, a decrease in pain, and also has a desensitizing effect (allergy relief).
For cardiovascular diseases:
For diseases of the nervous system:
For diseases of the female genital area.
For gastrointestinal diseases
For urological diseases

Arthrosis is a dystrophic change in articular cartilage of a non-inflammatory nature. This process occurs in most cases as a result of natural aging of the body.
According to statistics, arthrosis is considered a fairly common disease, since it affects, according to various estimates, from 10% to 15% of residents of different countries.
This disease is typical for the age group of 45 years and more. Although, there are exceptions when arthrosis is observed in a younger group of people, as a result of injuries, serious illnesses, and fractures, which are more common in athletes.
The most common are arthrosis of the knee, hip and phalangeal joints. At the same time, two types of arthrosis are traditionally distinguished: primary, which occurs against the general background of age-related changes in the body, and secondary, which develops as a result of injury, excessive physical exertion, an infectious or other disease, such as diabetes.
As a rule, patients experience arthrosis pain when under strain, but as soon as they sit or lie down in a position that is comfortable for the affected limb, the pain subsides. As the disease progresses, the characteristic crunching of the joints intensifies, the amplitude of habitual joint movements decreases, and deformation of the articular components is observed.
Why does arthrosis occur, and what is it? The disease develops due to metabolic disorders in the joint, which in turn leads to the fact that the cartilage begins to lose elasticity. This can be facilitated by the complete or partial loss of proteoglycans from the cartilage; this usually occurs due to rather deep cracks in the cartilage itself.
Loss of proteoglycans can also occur for another reason: due to a failure in their production by joint cells.
People at risk include:
The insidiousness of arthrosis also lies in the fact that pathological changes in the cartilage tissue of the affected joint do not show any symptoms for a long time - pain and difficulty in movement become noticeable only at the moment when the destruction reaches the periosteum located under the cartilage.
There are three degrees of joint arthrosis:
The course of the disease is characterized by stages of exacerbation and stages of remission. This significantly complicates self-diagnosis of arthrosis, relying only on one’s own sensations. Therefore, it is necessary to consult a doctor for clarification of the diagnosis.
Arthrosis has certain first signs, based on its classification, but there is also a generalized list:
In later stages, pain can also occur in a calm state due to blood stagnation and increased intraosseous pressure.
Arthrosis belongs to the category of chronic diseases. Sometimes the disease can go unnoticed for years, only occasionally showing pain when putting pressure on a joint or clumsily moving.
But it also happens that the disease rapidly develops to a severe stage in just a few months. In any case, it is important to remember that if arthrosis is not treated, its symptoms will increase over time, worsening the quality of life, and in severe cases, leading to disability and immobility.
So, with arthrosis, the main symptoms are as follows:
Sometimes the pain may intensify in the evening. Sometimes joint pain can be very active, its manifestation depends on the load. In youth, arthrosis can develop from heavy physical activity or after injury.
Diagnosis is based, first of all, on determining such a predisposing factor as the appearance of pain and discomfort in joint movements. If the above-described signs of the disease occur, it is possible to conduct x-ray, radionuclide and morphological studies.
All studies are carried out only in a clinical setting and conclusions on them should only be given by qualified specialists. On our website, you can always ask questions about the symptoms, treatment and prevention of arthrosis in the comments below.
Preventive measures to prevent arthrosis are available to everyone. They include moderate physical activity (it should not cause joint pain), a balanced diet and daily intake of all essential microelements and vitamins.
Excess weight often interferes with getting rid of arthrosis, so you should be very careful about your diet and, if necessary, follow a diet.
It is also necessary to remember that arthrosis belongs to the category of chronic diseases. In other words, the main criterion for the effectiveness of treatment is achieving long-term remission and improving the patient’s condition.
With diagnosed arthrosis, treatment at the moment is a serious and pressing problem. And although the number of drugs used for arthrosis is constantly increasing, they have only a symptomatic effect. And so far, none of the drugs has become a panacea in the treatment of joints.
The treatment plan and methods depend on the stage and symptoms of arthrosis; they often initially relieve pain, since in the second and third stages of the disease they can be very painful. Anti-inflammatory therapy is also possible for concomitant joint inflammation.
The basic regimen of drug treatment for arthrosis involves the use of:
It is only possible to restore a joint that is largely damaged by arthrosis through joint replacement surgery; it is not yet possible to do this without surgery.
At advanced stages of arthrosis of the knee joints, treatment with medications may no longer be effective, and then a decision should be made on surgical methods of recovery.
There are several types of surgery:
At home, as prescribed by a doctor, the patient can use distracting agents in the form of ointments, rubs, gels, and herbal infusions. Physiotherapy, acupuncture, hirudotherapy (leech treatment), as well as sanatorium-resort treatment in the stage of remission (attenuation of the disease) using natural mud and mineral baths give good results.
An indispensable condition in the treatment of arthrosis is the use of various types of exercises in order to prevent muscle atrophy and weakening of ligaments.
Exercises for the treatment of arthrosis are selected individually for each patient by the attending physician and a specialist in physical therapy. Exercises are started only after the exacerbation has resolved, but no later than 5-6 days after the pain has subsided.
The goal of exercises for the treatment of arthrosis is to restore joint mobility, aerobic training, and increase the strength and flexibility of muscles and joints.
For arthrosis, drug treatment cannot be avoided, but usually the doctor prescribes complex treatment, advising the use of folk remedies. But you need to know that the treatment of arthrosis, including alternative medicine, is based on a healthy lifestyle and proper nutrition, with folk recipes added to all this.
In general, treatment of arthrosis with folk remedies cannot completely replace standard types of therapy (medicines, physiotherapy, massage, exercise therapy), but can significantly alleviate the symptoms of the disease, enhance the effect of other methods of therapy and speed up recovery.
