Kúpele Bystrá spa is located in the village of Liptovský Ján in the Národný park Nízke Tatry. The healing institute set in the heart of Liptov nature is a popular destination for spa guests and patients with metabolic disorders, digestive issues, and rheumatological diseases.

Kúpele Bystrá is situated at an altitude of 672 m above sea level in the Jánska dolina valley. The environment of this valley is rich in mineral and thermal springs. Jánska water, as the locals call it, has strong anti-inflammatory effects. The water that springs from beneath the travertine formations is hydrogen sulfide-rich and strongly carbonated. Its beneficial effects were confirmed in the past. Women from Ján used to wash their feet in the water while soaking hemp. They did not suffer from rheumatism and were even said to dance longer.
Indications treated at Kúpele Bystrá primarily include rheumatological diseases, stomach and intestinal troubles, liver and gallbladder problems, gynecological and oncological diseases, and allergies. If you suffer from any of these ailments, try treatment at the Kúpeľno-rehabilitačný ústav Bystrá.
The institute falls under the Ministry of Interior of the Slovak Republic, which is why it is often used for recreation by its employees. However, they also accept patients covered by health insurance based on a doctor's recommendation, as well as self-paying guests for short-term stays. The medical procedures provided are administered only on the basis of an initial medical examination.
Among the procedures offered are various types of massages: classic massage, reflexology massage, cupping, and mechanical massage. Saunas, various types of baths, Scottish showers, hydromassage, and bubble baths are available. Other effective therapies include inhalations and oxygen therapy, oxygen treatment that is very beneficial for eliminating harmful substances from the body. Increased oxygenation of the body speeds up the recovery process and prevents cellular aging.
