Mud therapy (peloidotherapy) in the health resorts of Belarus - now it is one of the most urgent requests when choosing a health resort. Do not think that dirt is always useless and smells bad. In fact, it will help heal the joints, the genitourinary system, and the skin. By its composition, therapeutic mud is a unique set of vitamins, minerals and organic substances, due to which it has a healing effect on the human body. For treatment, mud is usually used most often from places of hydrothermal activity, peat deposits and reservoirs, both salty and fresh.

Depending on from its composition medicinal muds are hills, sapropelic, silt and peat. In health resorts of Belarus when carrying out mud therapy procedures, sapropel muds of the Sudobl, Svyatoe and Dikoe lakes are used, which are in no way inferior in quality to their foreign counterparts.

Mud treatment works on three fronts:

• Thermal factor. If you put mud on the body, it will keep warm for a long time. This means that the vessels in the area of exposure to mud expand, blood circulation improves and the permeability of the vascular wall normalizes. Metabolic processes in tissues are accelerated, which means that toxins from the subcutaneous tissue are released faster.
• Mechanical effect. Under friction and pressure, fabrics are warmed up better, and heat spreads to a greater depth. Mud acts on mucous membranes, skin receptors, nerves and blood vessels. And this also makes the processes of microcirculation and metabolism in organs and tissues of higher quality.
• Chemical action. Volcanic or lake mud are elements that penetrate into our body through the skin and work in the necessary organs and systems. So, in some clays there are compounds similar to hormones. They treat gynecological diseases. Also in the mud there are many antioxidants that stabilize enzymatic processes. Bacteriophages, which are also found in mud, work as antibiotics, which is why mud is so good at treating dermatological problems.

Healing mud can be applied in the form of general and local mud applications.

During local mud applications , therapeutic mud is applied to a specific area of the body, depending on the localization of the inflammatory process and taking into account the degree of its activity.

During general mud therapy , therapeutic mud covers almost the entire body, with the exception of the head and the front surface of the chest. As a result of squeezing the venous vessels with mud, microcirculation and hemodynamics are improved, the work of the heart and lymph circulation are improved.
