Quality of life was markedly decreased as compared to the population at large (1996, CFES). The two pretreatment evaluations produced similar quality-of-life scores. Spa therapy was associated with significant improvements in overall quality of life (P=0.004), self-esteem (P=0.009),and pain (P=0.01).

These findings support those of other studies conducted in France and in other European countries.
They indicate that patients report meaningful improvements in their quality of life after spa therapy.

ConclusionsConclusions
Both of 2 week-spa therapy were effective in reducing pain and improving function and spinal mobility and flexibility in patients with lumbar OA.
ConclusionsConclusions
The significant improvement, seen in Schober Index at 3 month in balneotherapy + exercise group was probably related to the added exercise therapy.
ConclusionsConclusions
Spa therapy combining balneotherapy and exercise therapy had advantage over sole balneotherapy in improving mobility and flexibility in patients with lumbar spine OA.
ConclusionsConclusions
However, it is needed further well designed randomized controlled trials with a higher number of patients with a sufficient power to show the superiority of combined spa therapy over mono balneotherapy for lumbar OA.
We need further Workshops;to to improvimprovee mobility and mobility and flexibilityflexibilityand to show the to show the superiority of superiority of combined combined belly belly dancedance therapy therapy
