Edipsos Thermal Baths

Thermal baths are suitable for curing various diseases, but also for rejuvenation and well-being of the body. In northern Evia, Loutra Edipsou, Yialtra and Ilia are famous for their healing springs. Edipsos's healing springs are considered one of the most therapeutic ingredients and the most effective in the world. Today, there are more than 80 thermal springs. According to scientists, the thermal waters of northern Evia are suitable for arthropaths, rheumatoid arthritis, vertebral arthritis, back pain, sciatica, post-traumatic malformations and ankles, migraine headaches, tendonitis, chronic gynecological diseases, angiopathies, diseases of the endocrine cycle and many more. The hot springs in Edipsos and the surrounding area are numerous and are everywhere: along the beach, next to a field of olive trees, under the plane trees, on the road between two houses, on the pier at Yialtra, on the sand at Ilia. The waters come from a depth of up to 2.5 km and at temperatures ranging from 34 to 82 degrees Celsius (few springs are so deep and so high). They are also rich in minerals: potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron and sodium, among others. The Thermal Baths are provided by the Hellenic Tourism Organization's Hydrotherapy Center, as well as by private, fully organized and equipped therapeutic clinics. The municipal beach meets the needs of those who wish to combine spa therapy with beneficial seawater. The village of Edipsos is located 4 km north of Loutra inland. All traffic is concentrated on the coastal road.
