The Mineral Water of Dobrinishte

Тhe town of Dobrinishte is well known from ancient times, when the Romans inhabited these lands (4-5 centuries) with its healing thermal waters.

Today, the town of Dobrinishte is an established balneological resort with its 17 mineral springs in combination with the pristine nature of the Pirin Mountains. There is not a single industrial enterprise in Dobrinishte and the whole town is in the arms of the mountain.

 

Ruskovets complex is located on an area of 20 decares, at the foot of the Pirin mountain, next to a forest with coniferous trees.

The air in the hotel complex is not just crystal clear, but has a unique aroma of pine. The resinous microparticles contained in the air have an extremely favorable effect on respiratory problems.

The combination of beautiful nature, clean air and mineral water give guests health, energy and a feeling of calmness and freshness. The natural features of Ruskovets Resort make it suitable for both balneo and climate treatment.

The mineral water in Dobrinishte is hyperthermal, low mineralized, hydrocarbonate-sulfate-sodium and silicon water, with a high content of fluoride, with an alkaline reaction and a temperature of 38.4 to 43.1 degrees Celsius.

The water has no specific smell and color, which makes it suitable and for medicinal drinking, but not for daily use due to the high fluoride content.

MEDICAL RECOMMENDATIONS AND THE DOBRINISHTE MINERAL WATER IMACT

It has been proven that the bicarbonate-sulphate water causes the so-called diluting secretion in the gastrointestinal tract, which causes one of the most popular effects in balneology – they cause a peristaltic effect of overstretching the intestines, which leads to a cleansing effect. These waters stimulate the kinetics of the bile ducts, have an anti-inflammatory effect and influence the secretory function of the liver and bile, causing a choleretic and less halogen effect.

Sulfate waters affect the metabolism, in obesity through the cleansing effect, in diabetes by supporting the complete burning of carbohydrates and glycogen formation, improving purine metabolism. The presence of silicon has an astringent and antiseptic effect and is used in the treatment of skin diseases.
