Article abstract
The mechanisms of action of balneotherapy in the treatment of autoimmune disease are not sufficiently clear. Although this therapy does not replace but rather complements conventional drug therapy, it is certainly beneficial in suitable cases. Additional controlled studies are needed to delineate the mechanisms of actions and the effectiveness of balneotherapy in autoimmune disease.
