Features of the Tskaltubo mineral water

The Tskaltubo mineral water has healing features that are more effective than traditional medicines in many cases and for different diseases. The treatment has the best effects on your health here in the mountains, where you can enjoy with the fresh air, warm sun rays and natural springs. There is a pleasant, relaxing environment in the Tskaltubo Spa Resort. People visit this place to get treatments for the cardiovascular system disease, nervous system disorders, skin and endocrine diseases, etc. The Tskaltubo Spa Resort is located in the western part of Georgia, 7 km away from Kutaisi.

This place is unique because the bath taking process happens in the constantly flowing water, which means that the water is renewed continuously. That is why this mineral water does not lose its healing features and temperature (33-35 degrees) In addition, several caves that were explored on the territory of the Tskaltubo Resort have a very special micro-climate. This climate is really helpful when treating the hypertensive diseases, metabolism, asthma, etc.

History of the Tskaltubo Spa Resort and its surroundings

Nowadays, a balneological complex that is located in Tskaltubo offers to its visitors' many services that are performed by qualified and highly experienced medical staff. You can enjoy the thermal baths and different beneficial treatements here.

Tskaltubo itself became very popular from the 7th - 9th century with its unique healing mineral waters. The construction of the resort started in 1925 with the help of German specialists. Between the 12th -13th century, the Tskaltubo Spa Resort became a favorite place for the Georgians and their guests to get some treatment and relax. Furthermore, you can visit nice places around Tskaltubo such as the Prometheus and Sataplia caves, where you can see a footprint of a real dinosaur. Also, you can visit some ancient architectural monuments such as the Gelati and Bagrati churches that are located in Kutaisi.

The Tskaltubo Spa Resort was reconstructed several times, and finally, it became a beautiful 4-star hotel that was officially opened in 2011. Since 1940, this resort, with its healing properties, was very popular in the Soviet Union. It is definitely worth your attention. I recommend you to visit this place and get out of the busy everyday life, get a full relaxation and take care of your health. So, what are you waiting for? Explore a source of immortality by yourself and be healthier and happier.
