<p>With the increasing number of surgeries performed globally, due in part to population aging and the rise of degenerative diseases, post-surgery rehabilitation is often necessary. Rehabilitation programs traditionally include structured physical therapy, pain management, and psychological support. Recent evidence suggests that incorporating complementary approaches, such as spa-based interventions, can further optimize recovery. Spa therapies have demonstrated potential in reducing inflammation, alleviating pain, reducing postoperative edema and promoting motor recovery. Moreover, beyond the physical benefits, the environment of spa facilities can positively influence psychological well-being, reducing anxiety and enhancing adherence to rehabilitation protocols. This paper explores the physiological and clinical benefits of thermal mineral-rich water therapies in post-surgical rehabilitation, proposing their integration as a valuable adjunct to conventional rehabilitation strategies.</p>
