[Does balneology still have gynecologic indications?].

Abstract

There are still some precise and traditional indications for the use of spa-treatment in gynecology, even though they have been reduced or limited by the extraordinary progress made in exploratory techniques and different medico-surgical treatments. It also appears that the most recent and varied of these indications, especially concerning the multiple problems linked to menopause, can be usefully treated by spa-therapy. It is the role of practitioners, well informed of the multiple treatments available in the centers of hydrotherapy, to make the right choice, at the right moment, and concerning the right spa-center.
