There are about nineteen hot springs in the thermal area of Cuntis, although only two are open to the public: Burga de la Calle Real and Burga Lume de Deus. The first one is located in the street of the spa and has a temperature of about 53°C, and the latter is in Plaza Galicia and has a temperature of about 59°C. They are noteworthy due to their therapeutic properties and for having been classified as ‘healing mineral waters rich in sulphur and sodium’, as they mitigate rheumatic, respiratory and even skin conditions.

Cuntis es conocido por sus aguas termales ya desde la antigüedad. La cultura romana, que supo apreciar las calidades de las burgas y de las aguas minerales, dejó muestras de su filosofía por estas tierras, y así lo testimonian los numerosos hallazgos arqueológicos de aquel tiempo, el que nos hace ver la Cuntis como un antiguo centro termal romano
