Its high mineralisation and unique combination of carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulphide enable treatment of various diseases at once. First of all it treats diseases of a loco-motor system, neurologic diseases and diseases of cardio-vascular system as well as diseases of career stress. Healing effects of the mineral water are also used as prevention against the mentioned diseases.

Why does the water of Dudince manage to treat such a wide spectre of diseases? Carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulphide contained in the water support each other when penetrating into the skin. Carbon dioxide significantly improves skin congestion what in turn influences hemodynamics and decreases the peripheral vascular resistance. Thus it decreases both systolic and diastolic blood pressure. It also decreases heart rate frequency, improves heart efficiency and rheological characteristics of blood and blood plasma (i.e. increased flexibility of erythrocytes and decreased trombocyte accumulation).

Resorbed sulphur from hydrogen sulphide contained in the mineral water is caught in the connective tissue the more the more the tissue is damaged. Besides this, water containing sulphur improves extension of capillaries and arteries. They increase the level of vasoactive substances, influence the peripheral sympathetic nervous receptors. They relieve the painfulness sensations and influence haemodynamics similarly as carbon dioxide.

Therefore the mutual synergic influence of carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulphide is used to treat patients with polymorbidity (combination of diseases of cardio-vascular system and diseases of loco-motor system and nervous system).
