"Water cures everything; water works wonders; prevention is better than cure" – this is the unique philosophy of health that German priest Sebastian Kneipp came up with and perfected in the 19th century, and which is promoted at the Birštonas resort. Wellness according to Sebastian Kneipp strengthens one’s entire constitution, hardens the body and the soul, and bolsters the immune system. Sebastian Kneipp’s holistic concept of improving health is based on five elements: water therapy, exercise therapy, plant therapy, balance therapy and nutrition. In line with Kneipp’s recommendations, we have a Kneipp Garden for cold water applications to harden the body and strengthen the immune system. Šaltinis: © visitbirstonas.lt
