Spa town Jachymov
The first radon-noble gas water spa in the world was founded here in the
year 1906. The town is situated on the southern slopes of the Krusne Hory mountains at an
altitude of 650m, in an area with numerous unique underground mineral deposits. In the
early 16th Century, the town become famous for its silver ore mines, it become a royal
town and was granted the right to mint so-called Joachimsthalers (silver coins). When the
silver deposit were exhausted , uranium ore was exploited. The high content of natural
radon in the Jachymov mine springs became the basis of the treatment of locomotion organs.
The radiotherapy is used for its distinctive anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, it
is worldwide unique. The public is well aware of its effectiveness, which is also proven
by the number of regular foreign visitors. The therapy procedures and other services in
the reconstructed neo-classicist Radium Palace Hotel are of the highest standard. The
quiet town environment and nearby Krusne Hory attract people for walks and trips to the
local sights.
Treatment
In the Svornost Mine, on the 12th level, at a depth of 500 m there are springs:
Academician Behounek, Curie, C-1 and a new one called Agricola. The quality of springs is
determined by the average values of volume activity 10,5 kBq/l, temperature 32°C and
issue rate 400 l/min. The water received is used to prepare radon baths of the activity of
4,5 - 5,5 kBq/l that are used as the basic component of treatment.
The baths are provided 6 times in a week in the spa treatment facilities, those being
fully air-conditioned in order to avoid any side effects of radon decay products. Dosed
radon bath treatments are provided at an isothermic temperature of 35 - 37°C of 20 minute
duration.
The radon bath treatment is based on an unspecific stimulative effect induced by
micro-doses of alpha-radiation. The dose absorbed during a week treatment is estimated to
reach 22 mRem, which corresponds to a load an organism is exposed to when beeing X-Rayed
50 %, although here the load is advantageously distributed in 18 small doses. In addition
to the radon baths, special remedial gymnastic lessons are provided, either individually
or in groups, in a gym or a swimming pool, massage of all types, reflex methods,
acupuncture, acupressure, hydrotherapy, electrotherapy, laser-therapy, gerontotherapy.
If the treatment package is still not sufficiently effective, a traditional therapeutical
method is employed, Brachyradium-therapy (so called Jachymov boxes), which has been
exercised exclusively in this form since 1910.
