The Spas of Budapest
The capital ofHungary,Budapest, is also known as the world capital of medicinal waters, since it has the world’s highest number of wells of thermal and medicinal waters in the world.
A unique network of thermal waters, from which emerge 118 natural springs and artificial wells, with temperatures between 20 and 80 degrees Celsius, have a daily capacity of over 70 million liters. In addition to the thermal baths you can also find medicinal water to drink, which is rich in various minerals, in the surrounding wells.
Before choosing a spa, check to see if the pools are mixed or if they reserve certain days for women or men only.
The most beautiful and best known of the city is undoubtedly the Gellért Spa. It is located inside the hotel bearing the same name. In the Middle Ages a hospital was located at the foot of Gellért Hill. It was later transformed into a thermal bath by the Turks. The resort we know today was built between 1912 and 1918 in the secessionist style. It still has the original furniture. This complex has 8 thermal pools, saunas, private pools, and an artificial wave pool and offers massages and medical services. To reach the resort, which incidentally is mixed, you can ride the bus number 7 and 173 and get off at “Szent Gellért tér” or use the tram 47 and 49. It’s located west of theDanubein the south of Buda.
One ofEurope’s largesthot springsis found here, the Széchenyi Spa, a Gothic building which opened in 1913. This is also a mixed spa. The resort features 3 large outdoor pools and 12 wading pools inside. Inside youll also find saunas and massage parlors. It’s open daily from6 amto10 pm. Youll find it next to the Heroes Square inPest. It can be reached by the subway’s yellow line M1, at the stop fürdő Széchenyi. It is an incredible spa, as much for its building as for its opening hours and cleanliness.
Among the most beautiful Turkish baths in the world are the Rudas Baths, which were built during the Ottoman occupation in the mid-sixteenth century. Its main hall is most impressive. It has a central octagonal pool and four more at its sides, each with a different temperature. Eight pillars support a traditional Turkish dome which is thirty feet in diameter. During the week it’s open only for men, but on Tuesday it is reserved for women and on the weekends it is mixed. Youll find it across theElisabethBridgein Buda. You can reach it by taking tram lines 18, 19 and 41, getting out in Döbrentei tér.

And two more spas from the Turkish period are the Király Spa, built in the mid-sixteenth century, and the Spa Rác.

Our Feet Can Reveal Hidden Truths About Us
Do you remember the first day of your life ? What a silly question… But it can be very useful to know what kind of energy surrounded you when you were inside your mother’s belly. Those 9 months are the basis of a fantastic new therapy, called ‘Metamorphe Massage’. Are you sure you know your body inside out ? From the nails of your toes to your longest hair ? Don’t be too sure about that, because during a session of prenatal massage, you learn a lot about yourself and your energy flow is restored. It consists of a soft and intuitive touch of your head, hands and feet. It reveals who we are, not only our memories but also our possibilities.
People are not exactly fond of feet, and even less the feet of someone else. But did you know that, just like hand reading you can also read feet ? An extremely curved foot indicates a restless soul, an adventurer. And if the sole of your foot is very flat, you’re a down-to-earth person. These are not just simplistic conclusions, we must also take into account the position of the toes, the nails, calluses and corns, the skin and blood circulation etc.
‘It is really spectacular, after the massage my energy levels were higher than ever before and I obtain peace and harmany with my body. I advise everyone to try it, the price is almost ridiculously low. Many thanks to the professional who helped us’ commented a fan on a Spanish forum. Are you curious yet? Try it yourself ! With this therapy you can find out how those 9 months in the uterus have influenced you, and made you into the person you are today. This can even happen while you sleep, without making physical contact with the body.
The metamorphic technique has its origin in the United States in the 60s, and came to Europe in the 70s and is still evolving today. Formerly it was called the “Prenatal Structure“, but since it has undergone significant changes over the years, the inventor himself, Robert St. John, insisted on the use of the new term Metamorphic Massage’. Depending on your condition and your needs, you will find peace, serenity, innocence and love, and because the energy paths are cleared you are more resistant to diseases and you generally feel better.
