Under the slogan that everything is worthwhile, we bring the long-awaited second part of the spa series. Or if you want a more expressive message - "Spa Police in Action". The wealth of thermal and mineral waters is one of the toughest in our region to boast. Both local and foreign guests prefer spa treatments in the mediterranted spa in Bojnice and Trenčianske Teplice, but Nimnica is also bright on the spa map of the Trenčian region. As part of our project called "mystery shopper" we visited it. Of course, in this case, incognito, none of our staff knew about us.

The curative mineral water in Nimnice was discovered only recently, about half a century ago, during the construction of the Nosice Dam. The first guests came here in 1959. The youngest Slovak spa in Nimnice is also mentioned as a mineral pearl of Slovakia. Unique composition of natural mineral water is made for the treatment of airways, digestive devices, circulatory system, motor and nervous system, gynecological and oncological diseases. Thousands of visitors, patients, come here a year for this rich spectrum of curative effects. People who want to be even healthier. In addition to health, I will also find relaxation and escape from the harsh world.

Mission - Find the Pool

We set up on a local medical wellness. We did not book special treatments, if you are interested, it is necessary to order in advance. We arrive by car from Púchov, from here it is really close, a variation of three minutes. There is no problem with parking! For "Beware, constipation" or "Parking full!" Diagnosis, this is the first medical information. Free seats are right next to the bus stop and another shock - parking is not available.

Even though Nimnice Spa has been working on numerous occasions, we have been premiered in the role of the spa or wellness guest. According to the relaxing espézetiek in the parking lot there are clientele mainly from the surroundings - Ilava, Bytča, Považská Bystrica. He probably knows best what he has ... There has been a decision at home that we will use medical wellness in Nimnica. The table junction at the entrance of the baths navigates us to the healing house, but we need our own language to find the wellness address.

And so we are coming to the Salvator's "reception office". Um, we hit next door. Another goal is Balnea Grand, building opposite. Our husbands gave up before us. They turned on the heel and left home. You may have forgotten to pack up patience. They were equipping us in the Balnea Grand expressly, about a minute - and information. More happiness was for us. They had already made a new change and the receptionist had directed them immediately, willingly and precisely. We have joined them. In the tangles of various other information boards, it took us a while to find the right path. One "gift" was waiting for us in the dressing room. "We made" the cabinet directly behind the door. The storage of personal belongings was accompanied by adrenaline and culminated in the blow of the door to the head.

Wellness with added value

After the first peripetials, we walk into a beautiful area with a majestic chandelier. In the relaxation pool with "bubble benches" and massage waterfall we spend the first quarter and with us another ten people. The first impression is really nice. Added value is a whiteboard with useful information about procedures: how they help you, how much time you spend and what to do for the desired effect. In the saunas there is an on-site counter where you can get a sail. At first glance, it is clear that Nimnice spa has invested in wellness equipment, and when a visitor has a taste of any of the saunas, he finds it turned on. Herbal, salt, Finnish and infra. "We've been all right, right to the left.

Kneipp's baths form four swimming pools and alternate here with cold water. Interesting foot massage with instructions - warm water to use, how much you are asked, in the cold to withstand as much as you can. We recommend six reps, we have four. While we spend time in the infrasaune, another couple arrives in the cold-warm bath. The lady wonders how nicely the interior has changed, everything has been redesigned and still offers a drinking regime. By the way, there are two faucets at the sink. From one flowing plain, from the other mineral water. Mother explains the principle of the Kneipp bath. The man, however, will refrain from going into the cold water veru. I think he came here in this cold weather to heat up, not to freeze ...

It is recommended that after infrasaune it is advisable to refresh again. The way the ice maker takes us. Wow, from the Finnish sauna to the ice? We have not seen this yet ...

Real herbs and warm lagers

We admit, we did not know what is hidden behind the concept of the tepidarium. They mention them in the list of procedures and in the price list, but what exactly is going on, they mentioned the engraved infotobul. They are shaped ceramic heated deck chairs. You wrap yourself in the sail and enjoy the unbelievably pleasant feeling that we are going to embarrass you. And there are so few people here ... They think it's a waste of time, they'll know - I can lie down at home, too. Be careful, this is a completely different level!

If you've ever enjoyed a herbal sauna where some oil has been dripped, a ninja herb is another league. Honest harmanche, unbelievable aroma. A simple experience. Like a salt sauna. Around you is just a steam but a feeling that you are doing something for your skin ... Sure not to try it.

At the time of our overflow, in the middle of the week and in the middle of the week, the offer of medical wellness was used by some thirty visitors. It was an accrual number, we did not interfere with each other and gradually moved. The whirlpool was non-stop occupied, which was the biggest concern. Two hours had passed like water, and it was good for us. When leaving, we recommend a restaurant. This is in the area of ​​the healing house. With a tastefully crafted table, a menu that does not hurt, and in a pleasant atmosphere you will enjoy the reverberations of warmth and relaxation from wellness.

We will be in the spa

We people are always hurrying. Even in the spa during wellness we feel we have to try everything first and right. Then it looks like the jambs jump from one procedure to the other. Like when they open a new supermarket. Hours-two are really few in need of such a wellness. Perhaps it is enough for people who are here at home and know exactly what they want. For the premiere in the Nimnica Baths we therefore recommend a minimum of two hours of entry. Because it is an environment where you want to set a relaxed heart rate. We do not have races in the spa.

Cozy, unobtrusive, modern

Nimnical spa areas are modest. The complex is set on a slope, the environment has been transformed into a pleasant park, there are barrier-free walkways everywhere. The higher you ascend, the better you get to the Nosickú dam. Such a scenery will not give you a look from your car. The area at first glance is modern and fresh. The spa has taken advantage of its location and visitors can enjoy walking tours in the mountains surrounding the treatment area. When we leave the spa in the evening, there is silence everywhere. The music and singing of the musicians, which occupied the hosted guests, spilled for a second, but we drove them back to the door. And they closed them from the outside. We see the night speed crossing in the distance. Even he could slow down, because he "whispers" around the baths.
