Preliminary study: the potential role of a one-week comprehensive spa treatment on mental health prevention of adult patients in Konstantinovy Lázně Spa, Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The objective of this study was to identify the effect of a one-week comprehensive spa treatment on the mood states of adult patients in Konstantinovy Lázně Spa, Czechia. Data were collected using the Profile of Mood States (POMS). The participants filled out the questionnaire at the beginning and at the end of their spa treatment. Statistical analysis confirmed that a one-week spa treatment significantly improved mood states, reducing negative emotions such as anger and fatigue while enhancing vigour. The effect of gender on POMS entry values was not confirmed, but a significant difference in entry values was found depending on whether the participant was employed or not. The findings of this study suggest that comprehensive spa treatment can provide benefits to mental health. After a one-week stay in a spa facility, the mood of patients improves considerably. This finding is consistent with previous research in this field and supports the potential of spa treatment as an effective intervention for preventing mental health. Future research should continue to explore the potential benefits of spa treatment on mood states and further investigate the mechanisms that influence the effects.
