From the Swamp to the Spa: Mud Baths Bring Relief

Dec. 9, 2009 - PRLog -- Vancouver, BC, Canada – The current issue of the Annals of Rheumatic Diseases, a peer reviewed clinical journal, reviews the use of spa therapy, including 18 days of “mud sessions” for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. This painful, debilitating condition, according to the published research, sees relief with mud therapy.

Of course, this really isn’t new information – centuries of use of mud points to relief of various health conditions, such as fibromyalgia, circulatory issues, colitis, psoriasis, as well as joint and muscle pain.

Austrian Deep Moor, a world renowned therapeutic mud used for both health and beauty, is a highly concentrated, nutrient rich composition of botanical ingredients that can be used in various spa treatment protocols to bring symptomatic relief and restore balanced health to spa guests, both in spa, and at home. Michael Beresford, President of Moor Spa, Inc., an international provider of Moor Mud based products, states that, “the cosmetic benefits of the Moor stem from an abundance of bio-available, naturally occurring essential oils, fatty acids and lipids, not artificially introduced, as in many products.”

According to Mr. Beresford, the silky-textured Moor Herbal Bath is safe for use in any tub, including jetted hydrotherapy tubs. It is unpasteurized, with a balance of natural, active bacteria that eliminates the need for any preservatives. Filtered by nature, and unexposed to any oxidizing contaminants during ripening, this complex blend of nutrients is recognized by the body as an anti-inflammatory, hormone balancing, and detoxifying agent.

Moor Spa’s unique filtration system also brings the benefits of the Moor to every other product in the full range of skin and body products from Moor Spa. The nutrient-rich Moor Extract contains most of the moor’s water-soluble nutrients and is therefore extremely nourishing to the skin and body.

Spa therapy protocols using Moor Mud, similar to those used in clinical studies, are available on request to the spa professional, with a full complement of home-based wellness regimens for the spa guest.
