Thermal water

The thermal water at Terme Snovik is officially recognised as a natural healing resource. Thanks to its mineral composition and beneficial effects, it is used for prevention and to relieve certain chronic spine and musculoskeletal conditions. It contains mainly calcium, magnesium and hydrogen carbonates. Its properties can help relax muscle tension, improve well-being and support the body's recovery.

Our thermal water is rich in calcium and magnesium and also contains sodium, potassium, hydrogen carbonates and other minerals. According to the published analysis, it contains approximately 53 mg/l of calcium, 25 mg/l of magnesium and 260 mg/l of hydrogen carbonate. Its natural mineral composition is one of the main distinguishing features of Snovik water, which we use for bathing and which is also suitable for drinking at the designated drinking points.

Snovik thermal water springs in the Tuhinj Valley, about 1.5 kilometres from Terme Snovik. It is heated naturally below the earth's surface and reaches a temperature of about 30.6 °C at the spring. The water is naturally enriched with minerals, mainly calcium and magnesium. It was this thermal spring that laid the foundation for the creation and development of our spa.

Snovik thermal water is used to help relieve rheumatic and degenerative musculoskeletal conditions. The warmth can help relax the muscles, reduce the feeling of stiffness and make movement easier. Its beneficial effects on musculoskeletal problems have also been examined in scientific studies. For chronic rheumatic diseases, we recommend adapting your use of thermal water to your health condition and your doctor's advice.

Warm thermal water can help relax tense muscles and reduce the feeling of stiffness in the back. Thanks to the buoyancy of the water, the spine and joints are under less strain during movement. Snovik thermal water is also recognised for use in relieving chronic degenerative conditions of the spine and musculoskeletal system. In the case of acute pain or injury, consult a doctor before use.

Thanks to its natural mineral composition, our thermal water can have a beneficial effect on how your skin feels. It contains calcium, magnesium and other dissolved minerals, which is why we present it as skin-friendly water. If you have sensitive skin, we recommend paying attention to your individual reaction. Thermal water is not a substitute for dermatological treatment, especially in the case of active inflammation or other skin conditions.

Yes, one of the special features of our Snovik thermal water is that it is drinkable. Water from the designated drinking source contains naturally dissolved minerals, including calcium, magnesium and sodium hydrogen carbonate. Thanks to its mineral composition, it can be part of your daily fluid intake. For drinking, use only water from the designated drinking points, never water from the swimming pools.

Snovik thermal water contains approximately 260 mg/l of hydrogen carbonate, which can help neutralise stomach acid. Because of this component, the water is traditionally associated with beneficial effects on digestion and the relief of occasional heartburn. The effects of drinking it may vary from person to person, so if you have frequent stomach problems or reflux, we recommend consulting a doctor. Thermal water does not replace prescribed treatment.

Using thermal water can be a complementary part of rehabilitation after certain injuries and orthopaedic operations. The warmth helps relax the muscles, while the buoyancy of the water allows movement with less strain on the joints. Snovik thermal water is also used for certain conditions following spine, hip and knee surgery. Whether it is suitable, and when to start using it, must be decided by a doctor or physiotherapist.

Thermal water differs from ordinary water mainly in its underground origin and naturally elevated temperature, while its mineral composition depends on the geological characteristics of the spring. Snovik thermal water has a temperature of about 30.6 °C at the spring and contains calcium, magnesium and hydrogen carbonates. Thanks to these special properties, it is recognised as a natural healing resource and is suitable for various forms of use.
