Fango wrap
Is a peloid wrap of bentonite. Bentonite is a natural volcanic clay that supplies heat to the body and keeps it for a long time.
Since bentonite can be heated up to high temperatures and it can keep the heat, the wrap has a long-term effect and maintains a pleasant warmth throughout the therapy. The warm wrap has a therapeutic effect on rheumatic, degenerative and other disorders, where heat therapy is recommended.
Herbal wrap
With a selected combination of natural herbs, it can be placed on different areas of the body to release joint and muscular pain. Placing the wraps on the chest is used for the treatment of colds and chronic bronchitis.
Paraffin wrap
Keeps the heat very well and has a nourishing effect on the skin. It is used for hands and feet. It is recommended for dry, cracked skin on the hands and feet and joint and muscle pain, especially for treatment of rheumatic disorders.
