Abstract
There are many natural water springs in Tuva, that are used by native people for medicinal purposes. They are called arjaans. To people’s opinion, the treatment at the arjaans is very effective. It’s an old national tradition of tuvan peoples closely connected to the way of life. Every year more than 10.000 people are treated on the arjaans without medical control. The therapeutic methods used by the arjaans traditionally are drinking, having shower and bath.
