Druskininkų gydykla

Druskininkų gydykla is the historic balneotherapy and mineral-bath house at the heart of Druskininkai, Lithuania's oldest spa resort founded on its mineral springs. It combines modern medical-spa technology with the resort's centuries-old healing traditions, offering ambulatory rehabilitation and public bathing treatments based on natural mineral water and therapeutic mud.

Mineral water and mud

• The mineral water belongs to the chloride-sodium-calcium group and is drawn directly from on-site boreholes in the Spa Park, in a range of mineralisation levels (low, medium and high) up to brines.
• Therapeutic peat mud (peloid) is extracted from a quarry near Mašnyčiai; rich in amino acids, phenols, vitamins and enzymes, it improves circulation, reduces inflammation and pain, has antibacterial effects and supports the immune and nervous systems.

Baths, treatments and pools

• Modern therapeutic mud baths and mineral-water baths.
• A mineral-water pool with underwater currents.
• Steam sauna (vapour bath), massage, physiotherapy, kinesiotherapy and cryotherapy cabinets.
• Relaxation rooms, winter gardens and mineral-water pump-rooms/fountains where visitors taste waters of different mineralisation.

Setting

Located in the historic Spa Park quarter of Druskininkai, the gydykla is operated within the town's Aqua health-resort group and functions as its dedicated balneotherapy and wellness centre.
