Torf Organic Moor Mud Body Wrap or Bath (2 lbs)
Since early 1800's Central Europe's best medicinal spas have used Moor Mud therapy on scientific basis for pain management, to detoxify, improve circulation and immunity, reduce inflammation, to fight eczema and to rejuvenate. How to wrap: Alway keep hydrated. Drink water or decafeinated or light herbal tea. Neither iced nor too hot. Mix about 250 ml of Torf moor mud with warm pure water (you could use green tea or coconut milk) and few drops of essential oil if desired. The mix should be smooth and creamy paste for an easy application. Brush the paste on the body in an even layer starting from the feet up. Wrap the body in a plastic sheet, linen and a heated blanket (several blankets or steam tent will also work) and rest for 30 minutes. If you are doing a compression wrap, use presoaked ACE bandages instead. Unwrap the sheets and remove mud gently under shower. If possible do not use a soap as botanical and mineral residue left on skin can futher enhance the treatment (when detoxing, wash well) A period of rest of approximately 1/2 to 1 hour is recommended to support the metabolism-accelerating effect. Make sure the body stay comfortably warm. Drink plenty of water or decaffeinated tea immediately after the wrap and for the next 24 hours. For a full body detox 5-10 treatments are recommended, twice a week. Use caution when doing body wrap. Any body wrap treatment may be unsuitable or even dangerous for people with certain medical conditions: heart disease, high blood pressure, low blood pressure, diabetes, pregnancy, high temperature sensitivity. Consult your doctor before using the treatment. Always keep hydrated. Never drink alcohol before the wrap. Never do body wrap when on medication.
