BUJANOVAC SPA - UNIQUE IN THE BALKANS

15. March 2021.

Bujanovac - The corona virus pandemic has provided many Serbian citizens with the opportunity to get to know the blessings of their country. However, for most of them, Bujanovac Spa, the only healing destination in the Balkans where visitors are treated with gas-carbon dioxide injections, has remained a well-kept secret.

All those who have problems with circulation, complications caused by diabetes, rheumatism, sterility etc can seek salvation at a spa located two kilometers from Bujanovac and 20 km from Vranje. 

Medical technician Branislav Filipovic says that it is natural CO2 that comes out with water, that the certificate was obtained from Slovakia and that something similar exists only in the Czech Republic.

“It is injected subcutaneously and you can see it spreading under the skin. It is absorbed in 15 to 20 minutes. It is extraordinarily pure, from 96 to 99 percent, it hurts a little, actually it causes an unpleasant feeling, but it's not so bad", Mr. Filipovic said.

How beneficial the application of natural gas is best seen from the example of a patient suffering from Birger's disease.

“It is a blockage of the blood vessels of the legs, the so-called smoker’s foot. It is an inflammatory process caused by nicotine. The man was in terrible pain and could not walk more than ten meters. After the application of CO2 gas, after only two to three days, he walked briskly with the head nurse for some 200 meters, then rested a bit and returned to the starting point. As a general practitioner, I could not believe that natural gas could work like that", said the Director of Bujanovac Spa, Dr. Goran Nedeljkovic.

He explains that it all boils down to the dilation of blood vessels, which contributes to the higher speed of blood flow and  eliminates all metabolic, toxic products that cause pain, such as lactic acid and other products, thereby reducing pain.

In Bujanovac Spa, there are also gas baths for the treatment of skin diseases, swimming pools with hot mineral water of 43 degrees C and healing mud.

All you need is three weeks of rest and you will be “as good as new”.
