Description
The healing properties of the mud have been known since ancient times. Ancient civilizations such as Egypt, Rome, Greece and India used mud to treat various types of diseases. The mud has a complex physicochemical composition. Combined with its electro-thermal properties, it has a positive effect on health.
The mud in the town of Pomorie is extracted from Lake Pomorie. It was formed after a catastrophic earthquake in 740. BC The mud in Pomorie Lake is estuarine – thick and black. It has been formed for thousands of years, with a specific chemical composition, rich in high content of sulfur and iron. Pomorie mud is unique and differs significantly from other deposits of estuarine mud in the world.
Origin of mud therapy in Pomorie
The Pomorie mud was rediscovered by Dr. Petar Stoyanov in 1905. For several years he studied its healing properties. Subsequently, a mud bath was built and the town of Pomorie was established as a national sea mud resort.

The applications are made on the whole body or partially. They are held in a special trough-shaped couch, on which there is nylon and a tarpaulin sheet. Put heated mud and the body is smeared in a layer 1-2 cm thick, then wrapped warm. After the procedure, the body is washed in the shower and do not bathe again for at least two hours.
