The spa industry in the Czech Republic has a tradition dating back hundreds of years. According to an old custom, throwing a coin into the therapeutic springs gave thanks for the recuperation they provided. Many Roman and Celtic coins found in the thermal spas in Teplice are a testament to the fact that the history of the Czech spa industry started 2,000 years ago. The greatest boom occurred in the 18th century, when the spa industry became an integral part of healthcare thanks to the development of science and medicine. At the end of the 19th century, Czech spas gained so much fame that they were spoken of as the salons of Europe. They now hold an important place on the global market, which they achieved by combining natural therapeutic resources with modern curative and rehabilitation methods and superb medical care.
