The healing mud is known under the name peloid. It is a natural product formed under natural conditions from earth particles, inorganic and organic compounds with the participation of chemical, biological and microbiological processes. Mud therapy is a method in which healing mud is applied in a certain way for a therapeutic purpose. The Varna healing mud is estuarine. It has a grayish-black color and a fine structure, creamy, with great stickiness and plasticity, with an odor of hydrogen sulfide and an alkaline reaction.
Peloids exert a specific effect, mainly through a neuro-reflex pathway. They cause excitation of extero and intero receptors, as a result of which complex neuro-reflex reactions occur, the participation of hormonal, endocrine, vascular mechanisms. The specific action is expressed in the activation of enzymes and biostimulators. Under the action of the mud procedures, significant changes occur in the metabolism - tissue respiration increases, protein, fat and carbohydrate metabolism is stimulated.
The physiological action of the healing mud is determined by complex complex irritants: physicochemical, biological, etc. Medicinal mud, applied in the form of an application or in a bath, has a mechanical effect on the body, respectively on the blood and lymphatic vessels of the skin, chest, abdomen and limbs. Histamine and histamine-like substances increase in the skin and skin permeability increases. During the treatment procedure percutaneous
the body passes phosphorus, calcium, the sulfate ion, carbon dioxide, sulfur and hydrogen sulfide. Sulfur accumulates in the articular cartilage. More biogenic stimulators, enzymes, antibiotics found in the mud pass through the skin. The presence of estrogens in the medicinal mud has been experimentally proven. The estrogenic effect leads to an increase in ovulation and spermatogenesis. The healing mud has a strong anti-inflammatory effect, increased blood supply to the tissues, a pronounced trophic effect. In the joints, the level of mucopolysaccharides, as well as sulfur, increases. Relieves pain.
The healing mud is practically used after appropriate processing - sifting and heating.
In SBR "Thermal", an application method of treatment with medicinal mud is applied, which is general /whole body/ and partial procedures. The temperature of the mud is between 39 and 41 degrees. The patient is smeared with mud 2-3 cm thick and wrapped alternately with nylon, sheet and shawl/blanket. The duration of the procedure is 20 minutes. The course of treatment is between 10 and 15 procedures. After a break of several months, the course can be repeated.
Patients with all diseases in the acute and subacute stage, malignant anemia and neoplasms, pregnancy, diseases of the cardiovascular system in decompensation, advanced stage of atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, tuberculosis of the lungs, thyroid diseases, nephritis, varicose veins of the lower limbs, epilepsy are not suitable for mud treatment.
