Description

Mud therapy

The beneficial properties of liman mud have been known since ancient times. Ancient civilisations such as Egypt, Rome, Greece and India used mud to relieve various kinds of health problems. Mud has a complex physical and chemical composition. Combined with its electro-thermal properties, it has a positive effect on health.

The liman mud in the town of Pomorie is extracted from Pomorie Lake, which was formed after a catastrophic earthquake in 740 BC. The mud in Pomorie Lake is thick and black in colour. It has formed over millennia, with a specific chemical composition and a high content of sulphur and iron. Pomorie mud is unique and differs significantly from other liman mud deposits around the world.

The origins of mud therapy in Pomorie

Pomorie liman mud was rediscovered by Dr Petar Stoyanov in 1905. Over several years he studied its beneficial properties. A mud therapy centre was subsequently built and the town of Pomorie established itself as a national seaside mud therapy resort.

What does it help with?

Today, treatments with Pomorie liman mud are practised in two main forms – mud therapy and lye therapy. Extracting the mud and the lye requires specialised equipment and processing technology. Applying them sometimes calls for special apparatus, depending on the procedure.

Mud therapy is used for

• problems of the musculoskeletal system – all arthritic conditions, lower back pain, osteochondrosis (bone spurs).
• problems of the peripheral and central nervous system – disc disorders, plexitis, periarthritis.
• skin problems – eczema, skin ulcers, scleroderma and psoriasis.
• problems of the female and male reproductive systems – gynaecological conditions and infertility
• problems of the respiratory system – bronchitis, sinusitis

Lye therapy is also used for problems of the musculoskeletal system, the upper respiratory tract, the female reproductive organs, the kidneys, the urinary tract and more. Mud and lye treatments have been shown to boost immunity, stimulate the reproductive system and support many other functions of the human body. The anti-inflammatory, vasodilating, antibiotic and muscle-relaxing action of Pomorie lye and liman mud has been proven.

Methods of mud therapy

Pomorie mud is applied in the form of mud applications and mud baths.

The mud application

Applications are made to the whole body or to a specific area. They are carried out on a special trough-shaped couch lined with plastic sheeting and a canvas sheet. Warmed mud is placed on it and the body is coated with a layer 1–2 cm thick, after which it is wrapped up warmly. Once the treatment is complete, the body is rinsed under a shower and should not be bathed again for at least two hours.

• Temperature: 38-42 C^o
• Duration: 20 min
• Course of treatment: 10-14 baths

Mud baths

This is a widely practised method. It is carried out in a bath filled with liman mud diluted with sea water and Black Sea lye. The skin absorbs more of the soluble chemical substances from the dissolved mud than it does with the mud application method.

• Temperature: 38 C^o
• Duration: 20 min
• Course of treatment: 12-14 baths
