history

The first sanatorium was built in Likėnai in 1938. In 1948 a sanatorium for the treatment of back diseases and complaints opened.

After Lithuania declared independence, Likėnai was partially forgotten. The reason lies in the competition with modern and complex wellness centers in Druskininkai and Palanga .
