Every therapy at the balneari uses the same mineral-medicinal water that rises at 38.8 °C beneath the building. Never heated, never treated: just as it comes out of the earth.
All therapies by advance booking: we keep numbers carefully limited.
A true thermal cure requires three things at once: a spring of mineral-medicinal water declared of public utility, facilities designed to apply it, and a professional team under medical direction. At the Balneari of Caldes d'Estrac all three have lived side by side for generations. Every treatment is carried out under the supervision of Dr Cristina Álvaro: the cure is the result of the water's action and the technique with which it is applied — whether you come for a specific ailment or simply for the pleasure of unwinding.
Six ways of applying the same water: choose yours or combine them in a circuit.
The unique, traditional treatment of the house. The water arrives straight from the spring and is constantly renewed, keeping its original temperature and properties. This is not a heated pool: it is the spring itself.

The therapeutic indications of the mineral-medicinal water, condition by condition and always under medical supervision.
Effective for chronic inflammatory rheumatism, arthritis, the discomfort of osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia. It is also a cell stimulant, useful for the after-effects of trauma and delayed bone consolidation.
Brings relief in inflammatory skin conditions and psoriasis, and in gynaecological disorders of endocrine, vegetative or metabolic origin.
Helps improve bronchospasm, nasal congestion, rhinitis, laryngitis and bronchitis. Halotherapy reinforces this action.
A sedative, relaxing action: the warm water triggers a vasodilatory response that increases blood flow to muscles and ligaments and eases the recovery of headaches of cervical origin.
Drunk directly at 37 °C or cold, it is rapidly absorbed and produces intense diuresis, indicated for uric and oxalic stones, inflammation of the urinary tract and constipation.
Because it has been declared of public utility for its properties: it is mineralised 2,800 metres underground and emerges at 38.8 °C with a composition that has remained unchanged for over 200 years. We explain it in depth in why our water is mineral-medicinal.
Each therapy and circuit has a set duration so that numbers stay calm. You will find the duration and price of every service in services and prices.
