In the article, the natural conditions and natural therapy facilities of Żegiestow-Zdroj – a small health resort in the Carpathian mountain range, have been described. In the course of the analysis of the development of this resort, R.W. Butler’s model of tourism area life cycle (TALC), was applied. The analysis has revealed that that the life cycle of Żegiestow-Zdroj has no predictable, linear form, and its course is extremely difficult to foresee, as is proved by the intermittent and unstable development line. The development of the health resort is better illustrated by the chaos theory which adopts the shape of a non-linear course of events. Supplementing the analysis of the life cycle with chaos theory has allowed the author to describe the course of development of Żegiestow-Zdroj in a much more precise way. In the summing up, the chances for a renaissance of the heath resort and an initiation of a new cycle of its development have been presented. The above theories may be applied the process of interpreting and forecasting changes in other health resorts. // W artykule opisano warunki naturalne i zasoby przyrodolecznicze Żegiestowa – niewielkiego uzdrowiska karpackiego. W analizie rozwoju tego kurortu zastosowano model cyklu zycia obszaru turystycznego R.W. Butlera (ang. tourism area life cycle – TALC). Analiza wykazala, ze cykl zycia Żegiestowa-Zdroju nie ma przewidywalnej, liniowej postaci, a jego przebieg jest niezwykle trudny do odgadniecia, czego wyrazem jest nieciągly i niestabilny przebieg zmian. Uzupelnienie analizy cyklu zycia kurortu teorią chaosu pozwolilo na lepsze opisanie przebiegu rozwoju Żegiestowa-Zdroju. W podsumowaniu przedstawiono szanse na odrodzenia kurortu i rozpoczecie nowego cyklu jego rozwoju. Opisane teorie mogą byc wykorzystane w interpretacji i prognozowaniu zmian w innych uzdrowiskach.
