  2. Mud Pack Therapy and Thermal Bath • Chronic low back pain • Osteoarthritis • Fibromyalgia • Rheumatoid arthritis • Spondylarthritis ankylopoetica • Arthropathia psoriatica

  3. Mud Pack Therapy and Thermal Bath Effect of mud-pack and thermal bath treatment Physical-thermal effects Chemical effects Biological / molecular changes

  4. Mud Pack Therapy and Thermal Bath in Rheumatoid Arthritis 1 . . . . . • Cosh (1982) : spa treatment is recommended only in remission . . . . . . . . . • Elkayam(1991) • Sukenik (1992) • Shlomi(2003) Thermal bath, mud pack treatment or combination . . . . . .

  5. Mud Pack Therapy and Thermal Bath in Rheumatoid Arthritis 2 . Reducing objective and subjective parameters of activity and severity Morning stiffness, hand grip strength, activities of daily living, patient self-assessment of disease severity, reduction in number of active joints, Ritchie index.

  6. Mud Pack Therapy and Thermal Bath in Rheumatoid Arthritis 3 . • Bellometti (2000): se NO , se MPO , se GSH-peroxidase level - -37 Rheumatoid arthritis patients- mud bath treatment (20’,45°C, daily)  bath (20’, 38°C, daily) Background: NO (nitric-oxid): - produced by chondrocytes, fibroblasts, endothel cells affected by pro-inflammatory cytokines (eg.:TNF-; IL-1); - inhibits collagen and proteoglycan synthesis; - activates MMP-s; - induces apoptosis. -se nitrate (>18,6 mol/l), nitrite (>1,7 mol/l) concentrations are higher in RA than in healthy controls (p<0.01). -in active RA the serum level of nitrate and nitrite are higher than in remission (p<0.01). Degradation of articular cartilage (Y Ersoy Ann Rheum Dis 2002)

  7. Mud Pack Therapy and Thermal Bath in Rheumatoid Arthritis 4 . • Cozzi (2004): Lewis rat adjuvant-arthritis (subplantar FCA inj.) macrophage activation , pro-inflammatory cytokines  expansion of autoreactive T-and B-cells + mud (15 min; 40-42°C)- thermal bath (10 min, 37-38°C)

Thermal effect Minerals (trace elements) Muscle-tone Joint mobility Pain intensity Neuroendocrine- system -endorphine, ACTH, cortisol Antiinflammatory effect Reduction of objective and subjective indices Change of some cytokines/ biochemical marker‘s levels (Jezova 1985) (Bender T 1997-2005) Skin microcirculation  pl.:NO , MPO , IGF-1  (Bellometti 1998) TNF-α, IL-1β (Bellometti 1997) PGE2 (Bellometti 1998) Leukotriene B4  Hydromechanical effect Tissue compresses Zn ?

  12. Mud Pack Therapy and Thermal Bath inOsteoarthritis 3 . • Bellometti(1997): -22 osteoarthritis patients a total of 12 mud pack treatments (20’,40°C, daily)+bath (10-12’,37-38°C, total of 12 days, daily)  22 control group of patient - bath (10-12’,37-38°C, daily, total of 12) -se IGF-1 and se TNF- level 30 min. before the first and 2 hours after the last (12 th ) treatment;

  14. Mud Pack Therapy and Thermal Bath inOsteoarthrosis 5 . • Bellometti(2005):MMP-3 , MMP 8,9  • 50 patients with osteoarthritis • I. group: mud bath therapy(20’,40° C,5 times) • II.group:mud bath therapy(20’,40°C,10 times) •  30 patients with osteoarthritis- control group -Values of MMP-1,-2,-3,-8,-9, TIMP-1,-2 se MMP-3 value  in the II.group  Control group (p<0,05)
