About

Mofetta in Băile Harghita: A Natural Healing Source in Băile Harghita

The Mofetta in Băile Harghita is one of the most remarkable natural treasures of the area, considered a rarity worldwide among natural healing gas emissions. Located along the Călimani, Gurghiu, and Harghita mountain ranges, these mofettas have formed as a result of post-volcanic activity and, due to their special composition, offer solutions for treating various ailments.

Unique Composition and Mechanism of Action of the Mofetta Gases

The gases from the mofetta in Băile Harghita contain 99% carbon dioxide, 0.9% hydrogen sulfide, and 0.1% radioactive elements. These components have unique therapeutic effects:

  • Carbon Dioxide: Absorbed through the skin, it improves blood circulation and oxygenation, reducing the workload on the heart and enhancing blood supply to the internal organs.
  • Radioactive Elements: Negative ions present in the atmosphere have a calming effect, reduce heart rate, promote capillary dilation, and improve metabolism.
  • Hydrogen Sulfide: Plays an important role in cartilage metabolism, benefiting certain rheumatic conditions, including both degenerative diseases and inflammatory joint disorders.
Indications and Contraindications for Mofetta Treatments

The Mofetta treatments in Băile Harghita are particularly effective for the following conditions:

  • Rheumatoid arthritis
  • High blood pressure

However, in certain cases, the use of mofetta is not recommended, such as during pregnancy, in cases of malignant tumors, acute inflammations, febrile states, infectious diseases, epilepsy, psychiatric disorders, chronic respiratory failure, or certain lung diseases. A medical consultation is always recommended before starting the treatment.

Procedure and Rules for Treatment

The optimal duration for gas baths in the mofetta is initially 15 minutes, gradually increasing to 30 minutes, twice a day, for 10-28 days. The treatment should always be carried out under medical supervision, after checking the gas level. During the gas bath, movement and talking should be avoided, as they may cause the heavier gas to rise.
