Thermalism, an ancient therapy involving thermal station stays, offers benefits for chronic skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. It is increasingly recognized as a valuable adjunct treatment to reduce disease severity and medication reliance.

Area of Science:

  • Medical disciplines
  • Dermatology
  • Complementary medicine

Background:

  • Thermalism is an ancient medical discipline with extensive documented benefits.
  • Hydrotherapy, a key component, involves direct skin contact with thermal waters for therapeutic effects.
  • Traditionally viewed as an alternative, its role is evolving.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the benefits and applications of thermalism in dermatology.
  • To position thermalism as an adjunct therapy for chronic dermatoses.
  • To explore emerging indications, including cancer treatment side effects.

Main Methods:

  • A three-week program of daily care at a thermal station.
  • Application of hydrotherapy directly to skin lesions.

  • Integration into therapeutic education programs.
  • Main Results:

    • Effective for conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, chronic pruritus, and wound healing.
    • Shows promise in managing side effects and follow-up care for cancer patients.
    • Demonstrates potential for mid- and long-term reduction in disease severity and drug dependence.

    Conclusions:

    • Thermalism, particularly hydrotherapy, is well-suited for dermatological conditions.
    • It should be considered an adjunct treatment to complement conventional therapies.
    • Emerging applications in oncology support its expanding role in patient care.
