Stress, chronic anxiety, exhaustion… these are the ills of our time that require appropriate care. A spa treatment in Saujon (in France), specializing in psychosomatic disorders for over 160 years, is a proven natural path to healing.
A shorter, medically supervised treatment with beneficial effects
Anxiety disorders are increasingly common and require tailored treatments. Psychotherapy and medication don't always provide deep relaxation, and drug treatments can be harmful in the long term.
The Saujon thermal spa offers an effective alternative for reducing anxiety in the short and medium term, emphasizes Dr. Olivier Dubois, a psychiatrist at the Saujon thermal baths.
Since three-week treatments are difficult to reconcile with professional life, the resort now offers a ten-day medically supervised psychosomatic treatment, the minimum duration recognized for a lasting therapeutic effect.
10 Days of Intensive Treatments to Let Go
During the treatment, longer daily treatments are offered, including jet showers, whirlpool baths, and massages. The thermal water, rich in magnesium and lithium, soothes and relaxes. Its contact with the skin stimulates the brain and sends positive signals that promote letting go and diverting automatic anxious thoughts, explains Dr. Dubois. The treatment also includes two psychological consultations and medical follow-up upon arrival and before departure. All of this helps reduce anxiety, understand its causes, and manage it better.
And do the math…
This 10-day treatment, which is not covered by health insurance, is not reimbursed, unlike the 3-week treatment. However, for the latter, the patient is responsible for the 20-day accommodation costs.
For the Psychological Treatment package, the €720 for treatments includes accommodation for just 10 days. Ultimately, its cost is similar to that of the 3-week treatment package.
