Enjoy the Healing Waters of the Tskaltubo Balneological Resort
Georgia offers a wide range of incredible destinations and resorts, attracting travelers from all over the world. Some of these places are interesting not only for their location or sightseeing opportunities, but due to their exceptional features.
Tskaltubo is one of the most outstanding and rarified Georgian balneological resorts. Dating back to the 12th century, it is renowned for its unique healing waters that have distinctive stable physio-chemical traits and belongs to the weak radon, chloric-hydrocarbon-Sulphur, and natrium-calcium-manganese group of waters. The high efficient healing-prophylactic impact of the waters derives from their complex composition and combination of major salty components. The natural temperature of the water (33-35 degrees C) allows it to be used without preheating, meaning age has no relevance.
Biologically active microelements have been discovered in the mineral waters of Tskaltubo, which include: iodine, bromine, manganese, lithium, boron, copper, zin, and strontium. These represent important constituents for maintaining a healthy life. The role of special gases – nitrogen, radon, helium and argon, found in the waters of Tskaltubo, should not be undermined either.
