Abstract
Aim. To assess the prospects for the use of mineral waters and therapeutic muds (peloids) of the Sakhalin region for treatment and prophylactic purposes on the basis of their balneological properties.Materials and methods. The results of balneological analyses of mineral waters and therapeutic muds of the island areas of the Sakhalin region and regulatory documents were used.Results. The mineral waters and therapeutic muds of the Sakhalin region as its major therapeutic resources are characterized. The main groups of mineral waters for internal and external use include siliceous thermal, iodobromic, arsenic, and boric waters. It is noted that unique deposits of Sakhalin-type mineral waters, such as acidic waters with a high content of metals, petroleum products, and organic substances, require additional research. The Sakhalin region is rich in all available types of therapeutic muds– silt sulfide, mound, peat, and sapropel.Conclusion. The Sakhalin region possesses a wide variety of balneological resources for health resort treatment and rehabilitation. Among them are the deposits of mineral waters and therapeutic muds that are promising for research and use in medical and wellness organizations.
