Gastein Healing Gallery in Bad Gastein
Health holidays and radon therapy in the Gastein Valley
The Gastein Healing Gallery in Böckstein near Bad Gastein is one of Austria’s best-known health facilities and is an important reason for many guests to take a health or spa holiday in the Gastein Valley. Deep inside the Radhausberg, where gold was once sought, a unique healing climate has developed.
For more than 70 years, the combination of natural radon, warmth and high humidity has been used therapeutically. A stay in the Gastein Healing Gallery can be ideally combined with a relaxing break in the mountain world of SalzburgerLand.
A unique healing climate inside the Radhausberg
Inside the Gastein Healing Gallery, temperatures range between approximately 37 and 41.5°C and humidity reaches up to 100 percent. Together with the natural radon content, this creates the characteristic healing climate of what is known as radon therapy in Gastein.
Radon is absorbed through the skin and respiratory tract during the stay. According to the Gastein Health Region, this combination can support anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving processes and have a positive effect on mobility.
Therapy for chronic conditions
Healing gallery therapy is used particularly for chronic disorders of the musculoskeletal system, for example rheumatic complaints, osteoarthritis or Bechterew’s disease. Gastein radon therapy is also used for certain respiratory and skin conditions.
A medical examination is required before the first entry, and medical staff are present during the stay in the therapy area. The Gastein Healing Gallery thus combines the natural features of the region with medical care – an essential part of the health and spa offering in the Gastein Valley.
