IGALO SPA
Igalo is a suburb of Herceg Novi , Montenegro, located at the entrance of the unique Bay of Kotor, deepest fjord-like gulf of the Mediterranean, beneath the slopes of Mount Orjen, tallest mountain around the Adriatic Sea. This geographic position creates a climate with mild, not very hot summers and rather warm winters, where it may snow only above the altitude of 400m. Igalo is regionally famous for its modernly developed Mediterranean Health Center. Due to many particular features, Igalo Spa is one of the unique hospitals and spas in the Balkans and became one of the leading international centers for rehabilitation of children, adults and seniors, as well for the treatment of sports injuries, beauty and wellness programs…
The main healing element used here is the peloid (mud), extracted from the sea in the Bay of Igalo, and is characterized by high mineral contents and biologically active substances. Mud is created by deposition of mineral alluvium of the river Sutorina, its second significant healing element, due to the the chemical structure of several springs of mineral water close to the mouth of this river. Its content is dominated by minerals and bioactive substances, as well as chlorides, hydrocarbonates and sulphates. As third healing element, sea water, with participation of specific marine flora and fauna, significantly contributed by shallow depth of the sea, abundance of sun radiation, soft soil, favorable geo-hydrological and climatic factors. The therapeutical effect of the Igalo peloid has been proved, both experimentally and clinically, in large number of patients. Thanks to this, Igalo
developed into one of the largest and best peloid-based health resorts in the world.
Although not in Serbia, Igalo Spa is on our list of offered Spas for its successful treatment of a wide range of diverse prevention and health restoration programs, as well as wellness and recreational programs, which basically rely on the principles of modern medicine. Accommodation is provided within the facility or in one of the luxurious hotels of the area of Herceg Novi, one of the most visited resorts of Montenegro.
