Popular health resorts in Karelia
- Marcial Waters: the resort welcomes people who have problems with blood circulation, musculoskeletal system, nervous and genitourinary systems. It also offers to take advantage of rehabilitation programs that allow you to quickly recuperate (indications - stress and overwork). For this purpose, climatotherapy, valuable therapeutic mud, mineral water from various sources are actively used (water for treatment is selected based on the pathologies existing in patients). It is worth considering that the water in local springs is very cold, and you should not drink it without using a straw, so that iron, which is part of it, does not settle on your teeth. The guests of the resort are recommended to stay in the sanatorium of the same name or “Palaces” sanatorium. Each of them has massage departments, drinking pump rooms, balneological departments (carbon dioxide, whirlpool, herbal, pearl and other baths are especially popular), herbal bars, swimming pools, physiotherapy rooms, inhalers and other departments. The basis of the treatment is Gabozero mud (sapropel mud enriched with iron sulfides - it has a beneficial effect on muscle tone, stimulates regenerative processes, is used as a remedy for pain and inflammation) and mineral waters, as well as the healing stone shungite is actively used.
- Petrozavodsk: rest and treatment in sanatoriums and boarding houses, both in Petrozavodsk itself and not far from it, is recommended at any time of the year.
