Colon Hydrotherapy with Thermal Water

Colon hydrotherapy with thermal water is a natural treatment that uses the therapeutic properties of thermal water to cleanse and revitalize the body. This procedure, through the mechanical action of water in the intestine and the intrinsic benefits of thermal water itself, promotes internal cleansing, supporting digestive system balance and contributing synergistically to overall health.

 

It has direct effects on the digestive system, particularly in cases of:

  • Cramps;
  • Colitis;
  • Irritable Bowel;
  • Diarrhea;
  • Abdominal Distension;
  • Non-specific abdominal pain;
  • Flatulence;
  • Food Intolerances;

Thanks to its anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory and cell-renewing properties, the absorption of thermal water in the intestinal tract also brings systemic benefits, improving certain dermatological, musculoskeletal and psychological conditions.

 

By combining the power of thermal waters with a safe and controlled approach, colon hydrotherapy proves to be an effective ally for intestinal health and overall well-being.

History of Termas da Piedade

The begging of the use of water da Piedade with therapeutic purposes is unknown. According to some studies, the natural spring of water has been explored during the Romanizing period.

It is considered the first thermal building, created by the Cister religious order in the times of Cardinal-King D. Enrique I, when curative baths were taken there.

During the 20th century, the entity passed through the hands of several owners until it becomes the actual society Termas da Piedade Lda., which has renovated the hotel sector since 1981. Water da Piedade was used to end up with digestive system pain, skin problems, and muscular inflammations. In 1997 thermal activity in this water was interrupted due to some modifications in the water characteristics. Nevertheless, Your Hotel & Spa was built taking in count this water will be used in the future.
