Why go to a Czech spa
Tradition
The history of Czech spa culture began many centuries ago. Over the centuries, spas have been places of treatment, rest and relaxation for many important figures in Europe's social, cultural and political life, including Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Franz Kafka, Frédéric Chopin and former presidents Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk and Václav Havel. Even Charles IV himself regularly enjoyed the beneficial effects of spa stays. At the end of the 19th century, Czech spas became so renowned that they were referred to as the salons of Europe. Today, the Czech Republic is one of the world's spa superpowers and you can find high-quality spa facilities in virtually every region of our country.
High quality and professionalism
Czech spas are renowned for their high-quality medical care and progressive treatment and rehabilitation methods. The excellent results achieved by Czech spas are largely due to their highly qualified staff (doctors, physiotherapists and nurses), who are also one of their greatest assets.
Why go to a Czech spa
Enormous potential
The Czech Republic has hundreds of natural healing springs and rich deposits of peloids (mud and peat), sources of natural spring gases and places with a favourable climate. Thanks to their connection with medical science, almost forty spa resorts have been established in our country and a wide range of diseases are treated at them.

Chemical-free treatment
Experts have recently been warning against the excessive use of medicines with numerous negative side effects. Spas use proven natural methods and strive to utilise the centuries-old healing effects of natural therapeutic resources, through which we can treat our bodies in a much gentler way than with medication or radical, irreversible medical procedures.
Long-term effect
Spa treatment has a proven beneficial effect on many diseases. The positive effects are not only felt during a therapeutic stay, but also persist after its completion. This is one of the reasons people return to spas regularly.
Availability of spa treatment
As an essential part of necessary healthcare, therapeutic spa stays are covered either fully or partially by health insurance. However, thanks to the extensive options and wide range of services on offer, Czech spas are also affordable for self-payers and anyone who wants to go there for a relaxing stay or holiday. What's more, there is no need to travel hundreds of kilometres, as you can find high-quality spa facilities in virtually every region of the country.
Cultural and sporting activities
In addition to therapeutic and wellness treatments, our spas offer many other opportunities for sports, social and cultural activities. The beautiful surroundings of most spa towns are ideal for walks and hikes, and clients have access to swimming pools, fitness centres, tennis courts, bike rentals and a range of other sports activities. Culture lovers will also find something to their liking, with a wide range of concerts, theatre performances and other cultural events on offer. Many spa towns also boast a rich history and interesting architecture.
Variety of stays
In addition to traditional therapeutic stays, individual spa companies offer a range of preventive, relaxation and wellness stays, anti-stress programmes for managers, beauty programmes for women and stays focused on weight loss. You can also choose the length of your stay according to the time you have available – most stays are one to two weeks, weekends or long weekends.
