Medicinal caves
The choice of natural healing remedies extends far beyond just water. Hévíz and Hajdúszoboszló are also centres for medical mud treatments, which alleviate locomotor complaints. The humid air in the caves at Abaliget, Budapest, Tapolca and Jósvafő soothes respiratory problems. At Tapolca you can row a boat on the cave’s crystal-clear waters, while Jósvafő is part of the Aggtelek National Park and is a World Heritage Site. The mofette at Mátraderecske is a real curiosity. Here, naturally occurring gas containing carbon dioxide has been shown to have a positive effect when allowed to permeate the skin. Those who can benefit from a ‘dry bath’ in the gas are people suffering from heart and circulatory problems, including high blood pressure, and from chronic skin complaints.
