Science confirms the benefits of Gastein therapy
Numerous scientific studies now confirm the benefits of radon therapy and the “Gastein Cure”
Therapy in Gastein looks back on a long tradition. In fact, in the year 1230 A.D. a famous poet of that time, Neidhart von Reuental, felt so good in the water of Gastein that he was inspired to immortalize his experience in verse. In “Die Graserin in der Gastein”, he also describes the hot springs.
The Gastein Research Institute was founded in 1936. Since then, it has researched Gastein therapy treatments and provided the basis for ongoing development. Since 2006, it has been an independent institute of Paracelsus Medical University Salzburg, and part of the Institute for Physiology and Pathophysiology. But it isn’t only the Gastein Research Institute which investigates radon therapy: Several other international universities are interested in the noble gas.
