Yakhimov resort

According to eTaizhou Meanings, the Czech spa Jachymov is located in a picturesque forest valley at the foot of the Ore Mountains, 17 km from Karlovy Vary, at an altitude of 650 m above sea level. This small town, founded in 1516 by Count Schlick, has long been famous for the wealth of minerals (about 230 types of minerals). Thanks to the discovery of huge deposits of silver ores in the 16th century,

Jáchymov received the status of a royal city and the right to mint the famous Jáchymov coins – tolars, the forerunners of American dollars. The prerequisite for the creation of the world’s first radon spa resort in 1906 was the scientific discovery of the spouses Pierre and Marie Curie, who isolated the first radioactive elements from Jáchymov ore: radium and polonium.

At the site of the resort, from a former mine, the depth of which reaches 500 m, three springs come to the surface: “Akademik Behounek”, “Curie” and “Curie 1” with a temperature of 32 * C, a water flow of 400 l / s and a high content radon.

Radon baths, which have a good therapeutic effect, are taken in air-conditioned balneological buildings, which ensure the elimination of unwanted decay products. The resort uses a complex method of treatment, thanks to which very high results are achieved, which, moreover, last longer than the results of drug treatment. The fact that Jáchymov’s methods of treatment are well tolerated by patients is evidenced by the fact that older patients with cardiovascular diseases, who are contraindicated in mud spas, are also successfully treated.

The complex spa treatment also includes therapeutic nutrition, all types of basic diets. Patients are given the opportunity for cultural recreation, excursions and trips are organized to get acquainted with the surrounding sights.
