heal.abstract	At the edge of the river Sarantaporos, near the village Kavasila, thermal waters flow out of 4 main and several smaller springs. Chemically, the spring may be characterized as subthermal hydrogen sulfide-sodium chloride rich springs, with a valuable radon-content. The springs are generated by meteoric water which reaches great depths through permeable geological formations (mostly calcareous rocks). After being heated, it rises toward the surface, mainly along faults, carrying with it the mineral constituents. Springs with similar medicinal qualities occur at Thermophylae, Kaiafa and Kyllini in Greece and in Apenta-springs (Hungary) and Piatigorsk (USSR). It seems reasonable to build up a medium-sized spa-therapy unit and to promote the therapeutic utilization of the valuable Kavasila springs, in a way similar to the springs mentioned above.	en
