Brachyradium therapy

What is brachyradium therapy and where can you undergo it?

Brachyradium therapy is a unique therapeutic method that utilizes the healing effects of the radioactive isotope radium (Ra-226). This treatment is administered through special so-called "Jáchymov boxes," which contain a controlled amount of radium and are placed directly on the patient’s skin near affected areas. Thanks to the targeted action of radioactive radiation, it provides pain relief and reduces inflammation, especially in cases of chronic musculoskeletal disorders.

You can exclusively undergo this procedure at the Jáchymov Spa in the Czech Republic. Specialized facilities like the Radium Palace hotel and the Akademik Běhounek hotel provide this therapy. They have extensive experience with this method and ensure treatment is performed according to strict safety standards.

Since this therapy involves exposure to radioactive radiation, it must always be carried out under professional supervision and after careful assessment of the patient’s health condition. Before starting the treatment, a medical consultation is always necessary to verify the suitability of the procedure and conduct all required examinations.

If you're interested in brachyradium therapy, we recommend consulting your health condition with a doctor who will provide further details on the options and the specifics of this unique therapeutic method.
