Torf Peat Mud 8.5 oz

Preparations of peat have long been regarded as effective and valuable aid to sanitation (referring to health conditions, purity). Peat water possesses astringent and antiseptic properties, and the air in proximity to tracts of peat moss is invariably salubrious (health giving, beneficial ), owing probably to the absorption of hydrogen and the exhalation of oxygen by the mosses. Sphagnum, a distillate of Peat Tar, is authoritatively recognized as an extremely useful application in eczema, psoriasis, pruritus, hemorrhoids, chilblains, scabies, acne and other forms of skin diseases, while it is very beneficial for allaying irritation arising from insect bites. For the latter purpose it is a preventative no less than a cure.

• Moor mud is a therapy quality peat - an organic substance, product of natural decomposition of multitudes of plants under special conditions. Unlike other mud used in the spa industry, Torf Moor Mud contains virtually no clay (less then 3%) and consists of organic residue of herbs, flowers and grasses. Over period of thousands of years this residue was transformed into a fine paste that easily dissolves in the water, has unusual concentration of bio-minerals, trace elements, vitamins, amino acids, plant hormones and fatty acids in a molecular form that is easy for the human skin to absorb. Think of it as a plant extract not from just one plant, but hundreds that reflects environment of Earth 10.000 years ago, without present day pollution. Its uncanny ability to heal, nourish and detoxify has been observed by people for millennia and used scientifically in European Spas for well over a century. It is used not only to beautify, but also to cure multitude of ailments from mobility problems, arthritis, and hormonal imbalance to post surgery recovery and muscle recovery in sport medicine. Its actions are thermo-physical, biochemical, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, and natural antibiotics. Because peat has chelation properties (it binds heavy metal isotopes) it is a very strong natural detoxifier.

• Our bodies are being constantly attacked by toxins present in our environment. Due to overwhelming exposure, prolong stress or a weakened health state, toxins do not metabolize properly, but are being stored in body and body fat layers. When detoxification is limited, the body burden of chemicals accumulates further and disrupts biological processes. Regular removal of toxins from our body is essential as a high toxin load can cause many illnesses, chronic pains, low energy levels, skin problems, memory disruption, even cancer. However it is important not to rush the detox process, but to detoxify properly. Mobilized toxins can get into a blood stream and move to other parts of the body where they can be even more dangerous. Hot bath or sauna is one of the way how to detox more gradually. Adding Torf Moor Mud (BALNEO-Peat) to the bath water intensifies this process. It promotes sweating that mobilizes the toxins. It contains a high amount of humic & fulvic acids which are chelates. Chelates bind with heavy metals and other toxins and help to keep them away from the body tissues. Torf Moor Mud is not a typical clay based mud. It consists of 97% of decomposed botanicals, full of chelating humic and fulvic acids, bio-minerals, trace elements, vitamins, amino acids, plant hormones and fatty acids. Unlike other muds and clays used in detox therapies (such as Bentonite clays), Moor mud contains virtually no aluminum oxide, a metal that is considered to be as harmful by many detox therapists.

• Term BALNEO-Peat refers to therapy grade of our Moor Mud which was tested to exacting standards by the Czech Ministry of Health and was certified for the use for treatment in the spa therapy (balneo-therapy). Thanks to its unique packaging, Torf Moor Mud is supplied in a non-altered natural state, enriched with highly beneficial mineral spring waters and salts of the Karlove Vary Spa region. Torf Moor Mud has never been processed chemically or thermally to preserve all of its benefits as recommended by European therapy practice.
