The temperature of warm spring water is from 22 °C to 36 °C, and its key ingredient is calcium sulfate. The springs, which are used primarily for bathing, are mainly located at the foot of the Calvarienberg mountain (German: Calvarienberg, about 326 m), made of dolomitized limestone.
Before the First World War, Baden was the main resort in Austria; about 20,000 tourists came here every year to enjoy the waters.

The city has the Arnulf Rainer Museum in the former Frauenbad baths. This building was built in 1821 on the site of the Frauenkirche church that burned down in 1812, designed by Charles de Moreau, one of the leading architects of French classicism. In 1973, the baths ceased to be used and are now being renovated. There are two swimming pools and locker rooms, which are used as exhibition space.
There are several other buildings of former baths in Baden: Josefsbad, which now houses a cafe, Franzensbad with a Turkish hammam, but the water used there is not thermal, and others. The photographs show some of the old bathhouse buildings and their modern appearance.
The city of Baden itself is charming, with cafes, pastry shops where you can try bagels with nuts and poppy seeds, with a Kurpark, a casino and numerous memorial plaques and drinking springs and fountains. And there are vineyards on the hills around.

BIOMENT method

Response to stress, nicotine and excess weight. This is a psychological method that will allow you to learn to relax after a few classes, as if you had been doing yoga for years.

How does this method work? Skin conductivity is measured through small sensors on the index and middle fingers.

Conductivity indicates the level of tension/relaxation. The patient then listens to the hissing or buzzing sound through headphones.

These sounds help the patient relax and conduction decreases. If the conductivity drops below a certain level, then the music starts.

If through certain time the voltage rises, the patient again hears a hissing or buzzing sound. After some time, the patient will learn to turn on the music himself at the right moment.

This way everyone finds their own way to relaxation.
Regenerative training according to the bioment system for greater balance.

The biomenta-tabastop method leads to smoking cessation.

Weight regulation using the bioment method will teach you the right attitude towards food.

Classes are held individually and under the guidance of a psychologist.

QUANTOTHERAPY at Kurhaus Baden

Pulsating electromagnetic fields consist of tiny particles (quanta). Quantum therapy does not fight symptoms, i.e. manifestation of the disease, but with its causes.

It helps the body's cells receive nutrients and energy, and also activates their own defenses.

The Kurhaus uses such devices as
- pulsatron (pulsating magnetic fields controlled by a computer)
- pulsating laser
- biopton (linearly polarized light)
always in combination with oxygen-ion therapy

Quantum therapy is especially effective for
- tissue regeneration
- increasing immune defense
- improve blood supply and wound healing
- improving the healing of bones and cartilage (osteopathy, arthrosis)
- inflammation
- overcoming pain and much more.

Stress, high loads and the aging process lead to metabolic disorders in cells. Quantum therapy is excellent for increasing the regenerative and energetic potential of cells .

The center, along with traditional treatment methods, also offers other effective programs - DAVID-Wirbelsaulenkonzept and Spineliner. These programs are aimed at preventing and eliminating diseases of the musculoskeletal system.

The DAVID-Wirbelsaulenkonzept program involves the use of special devices that include both diagnostic and therapeutic training of the spine and muscles.

After a functional analysis of the spine (flexion, extension, rotation, lateral bending), one can learn and judge muscle strength and balance, and movement disorders.

Based on complete data, an individual profile of the spine is created, which subsequently serves as the basis for developing exercises on simulators that help align defects and restore the balance of the musculoskeletal system.

The duration of the diagnostic session is from 50 to 60 minutes. Orient. cost = 135 Euro. Further procedures – from 30 Euro/session (minimum 12 sessions).

Indications:

    “fresh” fracture (up to 4 months)

    abdominal surgery (up to 4 months)

    gynecological operations (up to 4 months)

    spinal malformations

    Severe inflammatory diseases

    "severe" osteoporosis

The Spineliner device helps the therapist in diagnosing the spine and treating it.

The method is based on determining the resistance of the musculoskeletal system, which is measured using the Spineliner device, based on short mechanical impulses. Test results are displayed in real time on the device. Based on the data obtained, an accurate diagnosis can be made and treatment can be prescribed.

A reduction in pain is achieved after the first visit to the doctor. The duration of the diagnostic session is from 15 to 20 minutes. Orient. cost = 52 Euro.
