The treatment included a comprehensive therapy: redon-sulfide baths, partial mud baths, kinesitherapy, terrain therapy, dry massage, laser therapy, low-frequency magnetic field, ultrasonotherapy, cryotherapy, electrotherapy, light therapy.
The study group consisted of patients with joint or back pain due to osteoarthritis or degenerative disc disease.participating in therapy. On the day of admission to the SPA the patients were subjected to subjective and objective examination. Laboratory tests (lipids profile, CRP, smear blood morphology, TAS- total antioxidative potential, the concentration of endorphins and serotonin, bilirubin, uric acid, albumin) were performed before treatment on day 5 and after 18 days. In addition, before and after treatment, standard scales were used to assess pain intensity VAS scale and anxiety and depression levels - HADS scale.
