There is broad scientific evidence of a direct relation between the amount of physical exercise, health conditions, and the quality of life of people. An active lifestyle is thus crucial for prevention, as well as for care, to slow down and prevent the onset of undesired physical disorders, such as hypertension, overweight, insulin resistance, and high cholesterol and triglyceride values (whose coexistence is known as “Metabolic Syndrome”). The structure of the Pool and of the Gym available at the Garda Thermal Park allows to combine the beneficial properties of thermal water with highly qualified prevention and functional rehabilitation programmes.
TARGET
Medical Fitness in Thermal Water is a physical exercise programme suited for everyone. It is especially designed for individuals with metabolic and physiological disorders (hypertension, overweight, high triglyceride and cholesterol values) or chronic diseases (diabetes, osteoporosis, arthrosis, obesity), yet in stable health conditions and in need to increase their exercise. The onset of such diseases is slow and silent. Therefore, the early adoption of measures ensures a more effective rehabilitation and recovery of optimal health conditions.
Rehabilitation and functional re-education cover the needs of individuals requiring motor recovery.
Cooling down sessions in thermal and alkaline water are offered at the Sports Centre for the muscular recovery of athletes and football players.
SPECIALIZED STAFF
The Medical Fitness in Thermal water programme, implemented in cooperation with the Bernstein Centre’s Team, is operated by Orthopaedics, Traumatology, Physiotherapy, and Motor Sciences practitioners specializing in prevention and adapted motor activities.
