<strong>Medical</strong> <strong>Hydrology</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Balneology</strong>: <strong>Environmental</strong> <strong>Aspects</strong><br />

The texts are divided into those occurring in currently active spas, Alhama,<br />

Alicún de las Torres, Graena <strong>and</strong> Lanjaron, <strong>and</strong> those that took place in popularly<br />

recognized healing waters not considered officially today, though local people<br />

know them <strong>and</strong> use them because of their positive effects, hoping that soon they<br />

will recover official recognition <strong>and</strong> activity.<br />

The lodges, roads, <strong>and</strong> transportation of these times, indirect conditioners of the<br />

situation of the spas, as well as a text from a <strong>Medical</strong> <strong>Hydrology</strong> book, to get to<br />

know the professional point of view on the subject, occupy some of the pages. It is<br />

curious that most of the time, travelers <strong>and</strong> doctors agree in their appreciations.<br />

Keywords: Alhama de Granada, Alicún de las Torres, Graena, Lanjarón, Travelers<br />
