Spas...
Medicinal
waters are used in two basic ways:
for
bathing and
as a drinking cure:-
Bathing
for medical purposes has a millennial
past in Europe. Bathing had different
and various functions among ancient
peoples. Hippocrates examined the
utilization of medicinal waters for
treatment. Several of his conclusions
are still valid today. A new prospering
era of balneology - the science of
medicinal waters - together with
hydrotherapy - water cure - started in
the 19th century. The aspects of
hydrotherapy have changed significantly
during the last few decades. Today’s
treatments are not restricted to using
medicinal waters only. A contemporary
“spa physician” is a rheumatologist,
internist or gynecologist with a wide
range of knowledge. A complex therapy
including the use of medicinal waters,
physical exercises, massages,
electro-therapy and diet plan shows
better and quicker results.
The Romans were the first to build baths
on the territory of today’s Hungary
2000 years ago. 11 baths have been
excavated in the northern part of
Budapest left behind by the Romans.
Johannine knights established the first
spa-hospitals on the site of today’s
Lukács and Császár baths (close to
the Margaret bridge on the Buda side of
the city). Hungarian spas became
respected world-wide during the reign of
King Sigismund, when Buda was the
capital of the German - Roman Empire. A
detailed description of a huge spa
palace and several smaller spas was
submitted by a French nobleman called
Bertrandon de la Broquiere, Master of
the Horse to the court of Philip II.,
Prince of Bourgogne. in 1432.
Under the reign of Matthias, the great
Renaissance King, the spas of Buda still
had a bustling life. The first
scientific description of the thermal
springs of Buda was prepared by Vadianus
in 1512, mentioning that the water is
too hot for the human hand.
Though the Turkish occupation in the
16th century caused great damage to the
country, its bathing culture was
untouched, even new baths were
established by the Turks. Several of
these Turkish baths still exist in their
original form.
