Heat Therapy
- Parafango Body Wrap
- Parafango is a mixture of peat and paraffin heated at a temperature of 45 °C. Parafango wraps are used to warm the muscles and joints, most often the back, shoulders and knees. An enhanced blood circulation and release of soft tissue occurs in areas where the wrap is applied. In our hotel these wraps are used to warm the body before the application of classical massage(to achieve a better massaging effect).

- The most significant beds of sulphur-ferric peat which we use for wraps are found in the area of Františkovy Lázně. Peat produces a slightly acid reaction and it is applied in pulverized form mixed with water and heated at a temperature of 42-43 °C. The minerals present in the peat penetrate our skin. The resulting heat increases blood circulation in the area concerned and supports the local metabolic processes which accelerate the absorption of inflammatory infiltrations and release both striated and smooth muscles.
20 min., CZK 290 - Paraffin Body Wrap
- Paraffin wraps consist of paraffin wax mixed with paraffin oil and their temperature varies between 54 and 56 °C. The mixture seems to be hot but as the heat penetrates the tissues equally, the increased temperature is tolerated well by the patient. The client repeatedly dips his or her hands into the hot bath to obtain a coherent film of paraffin. The heating effect reduces the pain of small hand joints, releases muscular tension and improves tissue nutrition.
