Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis is a disease associated with aging (particularly in women, in post-menopausal). Often begins unnoticed, because it does not give any symptoms.

Unfortunately, in most cases the diagnosis is only after a fracture has occurred (often of a vertebra or femur). You may experience a severe impairment of bone strength even for a minimal trauma, with effects on the motor autonomy and quality of life.

The damage of this disease is preventable with early diagnosis (densitometry, ultra-sonography) is primarily trying to intervene on modifiable risk factors (sedentary lifestyle, inappropriate diet, smoking or alcohol abuse).

The spa thermal treatments that use mature mud “fango” of Abano (European patent*) represent an effective treatment for the prevention and cure of osteoporosis, due to the natural stimulation effect of fango on the bone metabolism and more generally for the opportunity to intervene during your stay in our Thermal Spa with the multidisciplinary personalized treatment protocols.

* Recent studies conducted by the Research Centre Pietro d'Abano in collaboration with the Universities of Padua and Pavia have demonstrate that the effectiveness of mature mud “fango” is linked to the activation of some intracellular biochemical mechanisms and also to the presence of a particular substance (sulfoglicolipide) produced by the metabolism of specific micro organisms (Phormidium ETS 05) substance with a strong anti-inflammatory and condrite-protective activity, thanks to it was obtained a European patent which classifies the mud “fango”of Abano as natural medicine.
