tartalom: + 1 After 220 years of medical experience and research, the Traditional Hévíz Therapy became a trademark of Hévíz in 2015. The therapy consists of three basic and four complementary treatments using the healing properties of sulphurous magnesium carbonate water. Experts have recognized that a significant part of the hydro, movement, physio- and electrotherapies of the Traditional Hévíz Therapy is suitable for the treatment of certain problems of the Post-Covid syndrome. In addition, the mineral content of Lake Hévíz, the evaporating water and the climatic effect of the 60-hectare Protective Forest surrounding the lake are also very effective in achieving the healing effect. The Post-Covid Care programme will work on the model of the already proven Traditional Hévíz Therapy. Patients arriving in Hévíz with post-Covid-19 symptoms will receive professional and personalised treatments in the comfort of a hotel, under medical supervision. The programme and the quality of the treatments will be identical, regardless of which Hévíz location the patient chooses.   THE PROCESS OF POST COVID CARE EXAMINATIONS AND TREATMENTS IN HÉVÍZ The specialists in Hévíz try to alleviate or, if possible, eliminate the symptoms of Post-Covid syndrome, such as shortness of breath, chest pain, muscle weakness, concentration and psychological problems. The patient's condition is assessed before arrival using an online questionnaire, and a full medical examination is available before the treatment starts, either at the hotel or at a local private clinic. The specialists aim to put together an individualised treatment programme, as Post-Covid symptoms vary considerably from patient to patient. If the severity of the symptoms indicates it, they may even recommend a hospitalisation different from the programme. The Post Covid Care tests and treatments are designed and supervised by rheumatologists, internists, cardiologists, dieticians and mental health professionals with decades of experience. After the results of endurance, muscle strength of the main muscle groups, oxygen saturation, cardiological and laboratory tests, the recommended treatment programme for the patient is drawn up. Depending on the results, the intensity and frequency of the exercise will also be decided. The duration of the Post-Covid Care treatments varies depending on the severity of the symptoms but is at least one week. The treatments aim to achieve the best possible recovery and fuller rehabilitation as far as possible without the use of medication and with a targeted treatment plan (active movement therapy, passive treatment methods and other physiotherapy techniques). In Hévíz, the hotels offer a wide range of treatments, such as therapeutic massage, electrotherapy, physiotherapy, gymnastics, breathing exercises with chest mobilisation, diaphragm exercise, inhalation, spa treatments, static and dynamic balance, proprioception development, water gymnastics, salt cave, stretching, mental hygiene guidance, dietetic advice, aromatherapies, etc. The climatic environment surrounding Lake Hévíz is an excellent place for outdoor exercises, such as Nordic Walking, walking, yoga or cycling, all of which help recovery.   AIM AND LOCATIONS OF POST-COVID CARE TREATMENTS The Post-Covid Care programme is currently available at five locations in Hévíz: Lotus Therme Hotel & Spa, Hotel Europa Fit, NaturMed Hotel Carbona, Hotel Palace Hévíz and Hotel Spa Hévíz. Participants in the programme aim to use their expertise and as many tools as possible to help people recovering from Covid-19 disease to end the symptoms that persist and affect the quality of life. They believe that their expertise, Hévíz's unrivalled facilities and the comfort of a hotel can work together to help patients make a full recovery as quickly as possible. Detailed information about the Post Covid Care programme can be found on the website of the town of Hévíz: www.heviz.hu

As a first step the medical status check states the complaints of the guest and general health status of patient is checked. Based on the results of the above a physician designs the complex physiotherapy program. A duration of minimum 2 weeks is recommended when using complex Hévíz treatments. During the treatment, if necessary a continuous medical supervision is provided in order to monitor the changes to the patient’s status and the treatment is also finished with a status check carried out by a physician.   Bath types: Hydroxeur bath Carbonated bath Four-section galvanic bath Electric bath Alternating bath Bath reaction (bath nausea) Bath nausea may happen if patient is overloaded with treatments. Usually on the 5th to 7th day of the incorrect complex physiotherapy treatment the patient’s condition deteriorates. Therefore it is important to compile a therapy by a physician, furthermore continuous monitoring and control is recommended in order to avoid bath nausea. Too many and too frequently applied treatments are not always the best option, patients must leave enough time for the body to relax and recover in between treatments.

cím: Winter wellness tips for seniors in Hévíz

lead: + 3 When winter arrives in Hévíz, relaxation takes on a whole new meaning. Warm thermal waters, gentle wellness treatments, and a peaceful atmosphere create the perfect setting for rest and regeneration. For senior guests, Hévíz in winter offers a unique balance of comfort, health, and tranquility.

tartalom: + 1 There is something truly magical about winter arriving in Hévíz. The air turns crisp, steam rises from the lake, and the town slows down a little… and that is exactly what makes it so special. For senior visitors, Hévíz becomes one of the most relaxing destinations at this time of year: warm thermal waters, peaceful walks, and wellness in every form. Here are a few tips on how to make the most of a winter getaway in Hévíz! 1. Steaming thermal water – winter at its best If there is one place where winter and wellness are a perfect match, it is Lake Hévíz. The contrast between the warm water and the chilly air is relaxation in itself. Bathing sessions of 20–30 minutes are ideal in winter: they warm the body, ease muscle tension, and are gentle on the joints. Tip: In the morning, the lake is even calmer and more peaceful, creating a truly intimate atmosphere. 2. Winter spa treatments – when your body warms up too Winter is especially beneficial for warm therapeutic treatments. At this time of year, massages, mud therapies, and weight bath treatments somehow feel even more effective. Among senior guests, favorites include pleasantly warm medicinal mud that helps the body relax, indoor physiotherapy sessions led by experienced professionals, and underwater massage for those seeking a little extra pampering. A multi-day spa treatment can work wonders, especially for joints tired from the winter cold. 3. Indoor wellness – when you feel like staying inside all day Hévíz’s wellness hotels are a true refuge in winter as well: adventure pools, whirlpools, steam cabins, infrared saunas – everything you need for a comfortable, relaxing day indoors. Especially recommended for senior guests: Infrared sauna, as it provides gentle, joint-friendly warmth Steam cabin, ideal if the dry winter air irritates the respiratory system Quiet relaxation pools – in many hotels, mornings feel almost like having the place to yourself 4. Pampering in a winter atmosphere: Quiet wellness – aromatherapy and relaxation In winter, Hévíz seems to have a different scent: more spicy, calmer, more cozy. This atmosphere pairs perfectly with seasonal wellness treatments: lavender or citrus aromatherapy circulation-boosting foot massage hydrating facial treatments to protect the skin from the cold Each treatment feels a bit like a mini wellness celebration. 5. Sauna, done wisely – gentle yet refreshing In winter, the sauna can feel like paradise, but it’s important to enjoy it the right way. A senior-friendly approach: start with an infrared sauna if you choose a Finnish sauna, stay for 6–8 minutes skip the ice plunge – a lukewarm shower is enough rest for a while before returning The secret is a slow, calm rhythm. 6. Staying active in winter – gently and safely Instead of long walks, winter is the perfect time for softer, joint-friendly forms of movement: water gymnastics in an indoor pool gentle or modified yoga spine-strengthening exercises a short, easy walk around the lake on flat terrain 7. Short winter walks – when the town shows a completely different side In winter, the steaming waters of the Hévíz Stream turn the town into an almost fairytale-like setting. As the warm water meets the cold air, a delicate mist settles above the stream, making every walk a special experience. The walkways around the lake are easy to stroll along even in winter, and thanks to the unique microclimate, it is often warmer here than in other parts of the town. Not only the steaming stream is a breathtaking sight – Hévíz’s built heritage is equally charming in the winter season. Recommended pace: shorter walks with frequent breaks. The steaming water, quiet streets, and slow rhythm create a truly idyllic winter atmosphere. 8. Winter cultural moments – warm indoors, magical scenery outside Hévíz offers plenty of cultural experiences even in winter, all comfortably enjoyable despite the cold. If you feel like taking a break from wellness, the season invites you to cozy indoor programs such as exhibitions, local concerts, charming cafés, and of course Hévíz’s cultural events. Current programs This combination of wellness + culture works especially well for senior guests, offering relaxation and inspiration in perfect balance. 9. Light winter dishes – warm yourself from the inside, too Hévíz restaurants offer plenty of winter dishes that are warm yet easy to digest. Hot soups, light fish dishes, vegetable-based meals, and steaming poultry specialties are especially comforting during the colder months. Local restaurants usually pay special attention to wellness guests, offering lighter menu options as well. Many places in Hévíz also provide sugar-free, lactose-free, and light alternatives. Tip: It’s worth choosing lighter meals made from local ingredients. And after a good lunch, it’s time for a relaxing afternoon rest! Hévíz is at its most intimate in winter – the perfect place if you’re looking for physical and mental renewal. Snow-covered Hévíz is quiet, cozy, and deeply restorative at the same time. The warm thermal water, healing treatments, indoor wellness facilities, and atmospheric winter walks create a combination from which senior guests can benefit especially well. And one thing is certain: those who experience the “winter Hévíz feeling” once often become returning visitors.

As a rheumatologist, I have to take into account the results of many fields of expertise and background areas from orthopaedics to internal medicine. Behind a symptom can be a number of causes that need to be thoroughly mapped, so personalised treatments work extremely well. Most of our guests returning after a year say they were totally symptom-free in the period between the two treatment courses. It is also not uncommon that prosthesis surgeries already appointed can be avoided by using the Traditional Hévíz Therapy.”     TRADITIONAL HÉVÍZ THERAPY What problems can help Hévíz, and the Traditional Hévíz Therapy?

lead: Acupuncture is part of traditional Chinese medicine, which has a several thousand years old history

tartalom: + 1 Acupuncture is part of traditional Chinese medicine, which has a several thousand years old history. Acupuncture is successfully applied as a supplementary treatment for weight loss programs and dieting. By the stimulation of the acupuncture points located on the ears hunger and appetite can be decreased and digestion can be improved.  With the help of acupuncture several diseases can be cured, which cannot be treated by using Western medicine. It was not considered as a reliable treatment method for a long time, but by now it is widespread also in Western countries.  During acupuncture treatment patient is treated with a needle. Stimulation of the acupuncture points located on the body has an influence on the operation of our organs and organ systems. Needles play an important role in the opening of the blockages occurring in the meridians (channels: energy transportation system, which covers the entire body) as described in the acupressure part. The path of Qi (vital power) is opened with needles, by ensuring its circulation and the balancing of controversial energies (Jin and Jang).  In ancient times, when acupuncture was developed needles were made from bones, stones and bamboo. European physicians use flexible steel needles, instead of the traditional golden or silver needles. The length of acupuncture needles varies between 10 to 200 mm. But also permanent needles are used, which are taped after insertion and allowed to remain in the body for several days. There are approximately 400 acupuncture points on our body. During acupuncture treatment thin needles are inserted in various layers of the skin through the acupuncture points. For different diseases the combination of different points are used. Treatment duration varies – it also depends of the illness type. During one treatment multiple needles are inserted in the acupuncture points, and these needles are left in the skin depending on the pain level (starting from 15 minutes to 20 to 25 minutes). If necessary the needles are twisted and moved. Regularity is also very important during acupuncture therapy. In the case of a therapy with 10 to 12 treatments a weekly 1 to 2 treatments are recommended. Acupuncture is suitable for the mitigation of circulation disorders, elimination and mitigation of chronic pains, for the treatment of nervous-, digestive system diseases, respiratory system, dermatological, gynaecological and paediatrics disorders. The treatment does not have any side effects.

tartalom: + 1 The aim of the anti cellulite therapy is to get rid of or to reduce orange skin. There are various methods for eliminating cellulite.  Most people, but mainly women fight a grim battle with cellulite. Cellulite or orange skin develops at the bottom of the skin and in the true derm. It can also develop at young age, not only in the buttock and thigh areas but also on the belly and hands due to extreme depositing of the fatty tissue. Due to the toxic substances deposited in the fatty tissue the adipose cells increase in size and as a result blood supply and lymphoid circulation deteriorates. But the reasons for orange skin may be the followings: genes, not sufficient amount of fluid consumption, metabolism and hormone disorder, external impacts, not enough exercise and improper nutrition.     Cellulite massage and physical exercise During the lymphoid and blood circulation stimulating manual massage the toxic substance extraction in the cellulite areas is increased and the stagnant tissue fluids are emptied. Physical exercise helps to break down fat storages and strengthens the muscles in the affected areas.   Body wrapping The affected areas are covered with a lotion containing fat burner active agents. The body is than wrapped in a special foil. The treated person spends approximately 35 to 40 minutes in the wrap. As a result of the treatment the skin becomes taut and orange skin symptoms are mitigated. Usually 15 treatments are recommended during one body wrapping therapy.   Body shaping lotions/gels Nowadays shops are offering various body shaping beauty care products with promises of taut and smooth skin after treatment. During prevention and treatment it is very helpful to detoxicate the body by drinking of plenty of fluids, to avoid fatty food, sweets and excessive alcohol consumption

cím: Hévíz: Why Western Hungary is always worth your while. Even, or especially, before Christmas.

lead: Travelouge by Creativelena (Elena Paschinger)

tartalom: + 1 While I’m still catching my breath, my soul has already arrived. Janett and I run across the wooden bridge from the parking lot, trying to catch the last bit of an immensely beautiful sunset. The flaring red, and rather huge disk of the sun, is just dipping beyond the horizon to the West. A feeling of stillness floods through us, much like the little waves gently lapping against the lake shore in front of us. I take a look at Janett. My dear friend is just the same: After both of us have taken the last photographs, there is nothing left but to enjoy the peace of the moment. … Talking about Hévíz is like talking about the mighty stage of nature that surrounds it. A place where the water buffalo roams. Where the famous, nearby Balaton lake has closed for winter, pulling another lake centre stage: The steaming hot lake of Hévíz. Yes, steam rises as we approach the spa town of Hévíz. “So where exactly are you headed to in Hungary?”, my friend Gaby asks me ahead of my trip. “Oh, Hévíz”, she sighs, visibly pleased: “What a beautiful spot. Ursula and I have been there many times … You will like it for sure!” Travelling to Hévíz from Vienna, about a three hour trip southeast of the Austrian capital all the way into Western Hungary, already exudes a feeling of relaxation. There are no fast lanes or highways in this part of the country, so all you have to do is sit back, relax and enjoy the landscape around you. “You are lucky”, our German driver Volker smiles: “I go to Hévíz at least once a year. So glad we all decided to go on the same dates!” Janett and I have found Volker through a rideshare platform called “BlaBlaCars”, popular in Germany as a perfect alternative to trains, buses or taking your own car. Nice. Hévíz, then. As we arrive by the lake, the setting sun paints the rising pearls of steam with the last bits of colours for the day. “But what the … is this!?”, I gasp, suddenly torn from my slumber in the backseat of Volker’s car. In front of me, dozens of people are swimming in a natural lake obviously pleasant to bath in, despite the outside temperature being close to zero degrees. Mother Nature herself provides the energy for heating the healing sulphur waters. Quite the story: Lake Hévíz, a pleasant 26°C warm, is filled with healing source waters that lie buried about 900 metres below the Earth’s surface  … … framed by flaring fall colours such as these trees, an image that has me travel right back to the beautiful “Indian Summer” in Canada ..! Hévíz is a spa town rich in tradition … … their healing mineral and sulphur waters used throughout various spa & health institutions, and wellness hotels such as the prestigious NaturMed Hotel Carbona here … … a hotel that also offers exciting treatments such as the “Cryo-Sauna”: Janett volunteers to being exposed to -170°C for a very short time, said to stimulate your circulation and give you a boost of energy! Janett … We are waiting for your verdict on your travel blog! That day, I decide to keep my clothes on and only pose for a funny photograph in front of Lake Hévíz! Hévíz, what a discovery. In my memory, I can still feel the healing waters giving my entire skin a healthy, nutritious hug … … every evening, Janett and I are off for an hour or two of spa-stillness at the Kolping family hotel in Hévíz, perfect for both the kids and families as well as the odd “tired-crashing travel blogger” looking to unwind. The entire accommodation area is made up of single bungalows with reed roofs, adding to a familiar feeling of comfort from across the border, in the Austrian Burgenland province. And everyone out here speaks German! For a multi linguist like myself, it is almost a shame I speak no Hungarian whatsoever in return, but hey: Hospitality, appreciation of nature, and the good food & drinks we find here with our new Hungarian friends also speak a language of their own. Check this out. Talking about similarities between Western Hungary and Eastern Austria, one cannot fail to notice the food: Paprika goulash time it is – an all-time favourite on both sides of the border … … where the surrounding park beckons for a stroll (or a sit) … … modern holiday bungalows await … … as well as a chance to dive into the area’s hot mineral water pools each night. Around Hévíz, you will find prairie buffalos next to imperial castles and bustling farmers’ markets. Quite the Hungarian heritage & charm! I love visiting (farmers’) markets. All around the world, they always teach you about an important aspect of the local cultural history. What do people eat? What do they sell? Which “language do they speak”? How is the atmosphere? What is being offered? Who strikes up a bargain? And how? Janett and I decide to take on a feast of rather delicious “Kürtöskálacs”; a kind of sugar-bread-roll that goes perfectly with two glasses of hot, mulled wine. Beautiful second breakfast at Hévíz market. Just a little later, our local insider Krisztina drives us over into neighbouring Keszthely, famous for its imperial palace as well as being right by the shore line of Lake Balaton. Both places are worth returning to in the spring or summer, as we imagine all the green spaces full of flowers, happy vacationists in T-Shirts and us in summer dresses ..! At the same time, it is rather nice walking around without the crowds now .. The following is a list of travel tips on where to go once you are here: Hévíz market: Definitely worth your while … … where we recommend you to try delicious Hungarian sweet bread, and hot wine if you wish. Just about a twenty minutes drive and you will find yourself in front of Lake Balaton, Western Hungary’s famous steppe lake … … the advantage being only few visitors during low season … … same here at Keszthely Palace … … which we are able to visit almost exclusively on our own. Do visit the palace library: A magical spot filled with old books some of which are many centuries old ..! And if you, like us that day, wish to freshen up a little … … consider heading to Télikert Restaurant: Great food, friendly staff & a generous, urban flair here at Lake Balaton. If pure nature is what you prefer … … nature, horses, and romance … … then go visit the local buffalo farm, where you can learn a thing or two about the noble prairie dwellers and appreciate the local landscape around you! Thank you so much, my dear Janett, for helping to organise our #BloggerWellness days in Hévíz ! Hévíz & around : We’ll be back one day for sure!
