Iwonicz-Zdrój he alth resort - healing properties

Iwonicz Zdrój he alth resort is the oldest Polish he alth resort, next to the Lądek one. Its climate is classified as pre-alpine and described as moderately stimulating, enriched with airborne essential oils, ozone, iodine and bromine. However, the main advantages of the spa are the springs of carbonic acid, chloride-bicarbonate-sodium waters with the content of fluorine, bromine, iodine and boron. Their healing properties were already indicated by the court physician of Stefan Batory, Dr. Wojciech Oczko. Until the outbreak of World War II, they were called "the prince of iodine waters". Currently, the waters are exploited only from drilled intakes, because the natural outflow of mineral waters ceased in the 1960s. There are also rich deposits of peloid.
