The Earth element (Prithvi) is the foundation of our body. Mud Therapy utilizes the mineral-rich, magnetic, and cooling properties of the earth to draw out toxins and heal the body. It is simple, yet one of the most powerful treatments in Naturopathy.
Why Mud?

- Mineral Rich: Contains vital minerals that can be absorbed through the skin.
