3 Natural Factors and Premium Professionalism for the Treatment of Conditions in the Areas of Orthopaedics, Rheumatology and Dermatology At Terme 3000, health springs from the depths of the Pannonian Sea. All of this began in the sixties of the previous century when people were searching for oil on the sprawling Prekmurje plains and black hydrocarbonate-sodium chloride water rose to the surface instead of black gold. The black water has 72 C at the source, which is a rare phenomenon even on a global scale. Numerous studies of the benefits of thermal water for human health have been carried out, and our guests often report of the soothing pain relief effect of black water, its effects on the treatment of chronic rheumatism, post-traumatic conditions of the locomotor system as well as psoriasis. Our water is especially effective in treating joint problems as it relieves pain and improves mobility. Joint swelling is reduced, and the water is especially effective when combined with physiotherapy. The healing effects of black thermal mineral water are joined by those of peloid.

6 Hydrotherapy Healing with water is the most natural form of therapy. It improves blood circulation, relaxes muscles, relieves pain and detoxifies the body. Water facilitates movement as it removes the weight which in turn makes performing a movement easier than it would be on dry land. It can also provide resistance to motion which we exploit to strengthen muscles. Hydrotherapy is performed in the therapy pool and whole-body baths.

Hydrotherapy The galvanic bath is performed in baths filled with black thermal mineral water. Whole body galvanic therapy is performed in the Stanger bath, the therapy for hands and feet is performed in a four-cell (four-chamber) galvanic bath, while the therapy for arms or legs is performed in a two-cell galvanic bath. With the introduction of galvanic current, you can feel tingling or slight prickling. The main effect is the improvement of blood circulation and pain relief. It is used most frequently in vascular disorders of the hands and feet and for rheumatic disorders. DURATION PRICE Stanger whole-body galvanic bath 20 min 20,00 For the improvement of blood circulation Four-cell galvanic bath 20 min 15,00 For the improvement of blood circulation in the arms and legs Two-cell galvanic bath 10 min 12,00 For the improvement of blood circulation in the arms or legs

13 Kinesiotherapy It is a physiotherapy method that aims to rehabilitate by performing suitable, correct and targeted movements during the rehabilitation by the physiotherapist (as a way of assisting the patient) and by the patient. DURATION PRICE Consultation with a physiotherapist 10 min 12,00 Group therapeutic gymnastics 20 min 6,00 Individual active therapy exercises 30 min 18,00 Individual assisted active exercises 30 min 20,00 Passive therapeutic exercise of the joint 20 min 18,00 Functional training school of walking 10 min 10,00 Individual breathing exercises 30 min 18,00 Therapeutic exercises on the Artromot 10 min 11,00 Spinal traction 10 min 11,00 Joint mobility measurements - single axis 10 min 7,00 Joint mobility measurements - multiaxial 20 min 17,00 Individual muscle strengthening exercises 30 min 18,00 for osteporosis Joint mobilisation 20 min 20,00 (to increase joint mobility) Individual healthy spine exercises 30 min 20,00 It is important for the health of your spine that you do exercises that strengthen and stretch out the muscles, thus maintaining joint mobility. With this in mind, we have prepared an exercise that is intended for those with back pain and those who would like to avoid such pain. It is also intended for children so as to strengthen a healthy spine and correct incorrect posture.

14 DURATION PRICE Individual pelvic floor muscle 30 min 20,00 strengthening exercises One third of women experience incontinence (urinary and/or faecal) during the reproductive period. They can experience it immediately after giving birth or slightly later, or in menopause. One in every two women experiences incontinence after the age of 60. The numbers are high and the problems are even bigger, but they can to a large extent be resolved. While doing exercises for the strengthening of pelvic floor muscles, you learn to correctly contract the pelvic floor muscles, especially when sneezing or coughing. We advise you on how to perform the exercises at home and what to avoid. If you are among the women prone to such problems, we urge you to seek help, for it will definitely make your life less complicated and more fulfilling. Soft tissue relaxation massage (Treatment of myofascial trigger points) 30,00 MT are hot spots of hyperirritation of skeletal muscles and/or the muscle fascia. The point is painful to the touch and the pain spreads away from the point of pressure (to the head, arm, leg, back). MT therapy is globally recognised manual technique that quickly eliminates pain in the muscle system. Thermotherapy The therapy features heat packs, paraffin, peloid, cryopacks and cooling with an apparatus. Heat can either be supplied to the body or conducted away from it. The heating affects the skin, subcutaneous tissue, muscles, and the circulatory and lymphatic systems. Heating a part of the body contributes to pain relief and increases the scope of motion or reduces stiffness. Heating causes the blood vessels to expand, increasing the flow of oxygen and nutrients into the tissues as well as cleanses the body of harmful substances. Peloid has similar effects as it contains mineral substances that make the skin even smoother, helping to detoxify the body. Paraffin releases significant amounts of heat while it cools down (during the therapy, the subject dips their arms in paraffin and, as the paraffin cools down, the arm receives much more heat than in any other form of hand heating). It is employed mainly in the treatment of chronic rheumatic disorders. By cooling the affected area, we reduce pain, the swelling and haematomas. Hilotherapy is the latest service featuring cooling treatment after surgery, fresh injuries, chronic diseases and disorders. It acts quickly and without the unpleasant feeling of being cold, and also does not cause harmful changes in tissues.

15 Peloid PRICE 1 wrap 15,00 2 wraps 20,00 3 wraps 24,00 4 wraps 27,00 Heat pack 1 wrap 10,00 2 wraps 12,00 Paraffin PRICE Paraffin hand bath 12,00 Cryopack 1 wrap 10 2 wraps 12 Hilotherapy 15,00 Inhalation Therapies Inhalations introduce minute dispersed particles into the airways thus moistening and cleaning the airways, and facilitating expectoration (coughing up). Inhalation therapies use thermal mineral water with herbs added as desired. Inhalations 1 per day 10,00 Inhalations 2 per day 15,00 Mechanotherapy It represents the use of mechanical energy for therapeutic purposes. You will be healed by the dexterous and skilful hands of our professionally trained therapists and with the use of different devices. The pressure in the form of waves, stroking and kneading of the muscles results in pain relief, improvement of the circulation and the metabolism in tissues and also relaxes the body and soul. DURATION PRICE Massage whole body 45 min 39,00 Massage half 20 min 25,00 Massage partial 10 min 15,00 Pressotherapy device-based lymphatic drainage 1 limb 10,00 Pressotherapy device-based lymphatic drainage 2 limbs 17,00

16 Kinesio Taping Kinesio taping is one of the leading treatment and prevention methods that facilitates the body s natural healing process. By applying elastic, adhesive tapes, we trigger the self-healing process in the body. The effectiveness is demonstrated in the activation of the neurological and circulation systems. The tapes are applied on target points using various techniques, the purpose of which is: to reduce pain (tight or injured muscles), relax and stimulate the muscles (for muscle pain chronic pain; e.g. in the neck lower back, injuries), worn joints (arhtroses), in case of artificial joint implants (endoprostheses), in case of dislocations, fractures, jumper s or runner s knee, bunions (hallux valgus), twisted ankle, scar treatment (they become softer and less irritating in motion), chronic inflammation (e.g.: golfer s elbow, tennis elbow), correction of incorrect posture, scoliosis, flat feet, kneecaps, etc., lymphatic technique for the reduction of swelling, haematomas, improvement of blood and lymphatic circulation, increasing the (interstitial) space between the skin and the muscle. The method works 24 hours/day, for 3 5 days or for as long as the tape is applied. The presence of the tape does not obstruct daily movement and activities, and has no negative side effects. The tape is water resistant. If you are not sure whether kinesio taping is right for you, you can consult a physiotherapist. DURATION PRICE Small kinesio taping (up to two tapes) 20 min 15,00 Large kinesio taping (three or more tapes) 20 min 20,00

17 Lymph Taping Lymph taping is derived from kinesio taping and uses elastic tape that is applied to a problematic area using a special technique. The effects of lymph taping are based on the natural self-healing abilities of the body. Lymph taping improves blood and lymph circulation in an even more targeted manner. It is especially suitable for the following conditions: after post-cancer lymph node removal; for people who sit or lie a lot because of the inability to move which makes their feet and hands swell up; after plastic surgery; after injury or surgery of the locomotor system. PRICE Small lymph taping (1 2 tapes) 18,00 Large lymph taping (three or more tapes) 21,00 DURATION Manual Therapy 40 min. 40,00 For the treatment of locomotor system diseases and injuries. The therapy will help you with the following: pain relief; increasing joint mobility; reducing joint capsule inflammation; faster muscle regeneration; increasing the elasticity of muscles and fascias; reducing muscle tension; eliminating neurological signs (tingling); improving the functioning of the damaged area. Our treatments employ techniques such as Cyriax, Maitland and Mulligan. PRICE

18 Electrotherapy It is an area of physiotherapy that employs numerous therapeutic properties of electric current to treat people. We perform pain relief stimulation to reduce and eliminate localised pain in chronic degenerative disorders and in post-trauma and post-operative conditions. We also perform stimulation to strengthen muscles and to boost the functioning of peripheral nerves. PRICE Diadynamic currents 11,00 Diadynamic currents/2 15,00 Interference currents 12,00 Interference currents/2 16,00 Tens 10,00 Tens/2 13,00 Laser 15,00 Laser/2 24,00 Magnetotherapy 13,00 Electric stimulation 13,00 Ultrasound 10,00 Ultrasound/2 16,00 Selective ultraviolet phototherapy (SUP) 10,00 Bioptron 10,00
