Austrian Hochmoor -Moor Mud exclusively imported by Vivian Medical Spa

                    

For centuries humans have known the healing ability of herbs, which are found in nature.  Before conventional medicine began its triumphant advance, humans protected themselves from suffering with herbs and other sources of natural healing.

There are Moorlands located all over the world but the most interesting kind of moorland is the Hochmoor von Garanas.  While many types of moorland characteristically form in valleys, the Garanaser moorland grows on a gentle hillcrest laying at 1300 meters above sea-level in Schwanberg Austria.  This moorland is fed exclusively by rain water (thus the name Hochmoor), and is for the reason independent of the possible contaminants that can be found in the groundwater of the environment.  Only a few types of vegetation can grow on the acidic high moorland conditions, therefore the vegetation of this location is unique.


The wonderful properties of Moor and how it can help you

The use of Moor dates back to the 16th century when famous physician and alchemist Paracelsus sent his patients to bath in Moor.  Based on his theory of the quintessential vitae on the five main biochemical properties of the Moor, the results had spectacular revitalizing properties. The Moor was formed at the end of the ice age almost 30,000 years ago.  The large amount of species of herbs, plants and flowers were submerged under the lake formed by the melting glacial waters.  Protected from oxygen, the plants gradually assimilated into a rich black magma with all their medicinal properties held intact. He believed that he had discovered the ultimate remedy or elixir of life.

The Garanaser moorland increased in 6000 years to a considerable strength of six meters.  The more deeply on penetrates into the moorland, the more dark the mass.  It is found to be free from bacteria, which do not find living conditions in the felted fine root work.  This nutrient rich moor forms the raw material for the Moorbad in the Schwanberg Monastery and Vivian Medical Spa. This moor contains the nutrients from over 1000 herbs, 100 organic compounds, and a host of vitamins, phytohormones, essential oils and trace elements. It has been scientifically analyzed and its therapeutic effects have been confirmed by the University of Graz.

The State Institute for Experimental Pharmacology and Balneology investigations in Vienna stated in the appraisal that the condition of the heilpeloids of Garanas lies over the usual average.  The sediment volume of moorland of Garanas is 31.4 ml.  the normal average amounts to 10-23 ml.  At the same time, the hochmoor showed an outstanding water capacity and very good thermal physical characteristics. A moor bath cure means thorough decontamination and removal of toxins from the body.  The natural healing materials of the moor penetrate the body through the pores of the skin and unfold their healing effect.  The entire organism will become detoxified and the natural defense forces within the body are mobilized thus improving your own immune system.  Metabolic poisons which the body has accumulated are quickly excreted. 

                                                                            

 

Scientific Researchers describe the following healing properties of moor (mud):

  • Bio-available - Organic substances such as minerals, enzymes and other plant based matter present within the moor are in a suspended (colloidal) form and are easily absorbed by the body.
  • High heat retention - Retains and transmits heat over an extended period of time.
  • Bactericidal Action - Natural antibiotics and other beneficial micro-flora help to create balance in the body.
  • Absorbent - Moor particles such as Humic Acid and other Humus substances enables the moor to draw and absorb toxic substances trapped in tissues.
  • Astringent - Contains potent astringent properties for treating various types of skin conditions.
  • Ion Exchanging - The Humic Acid also causes an exchange of harmful positive ions in the tissues to be replaced by revitalizing negative ions present within the moor.
  • Nerve Stimulant - The fibers of the nervous system, between the epidermal cells are stimulated by the moors action.
  • Hormonal - Some of the healing substances stimulate the endocrine system in a natural way that helps create balance within the hormonal system
  • Anti-inflammatory - Consistently found to exert an anti-inflammatory effect on irritated of inflamed tissues.

There are hundreds of clinical studies documenting the beneficial effects of moor mud therapy.  Besides the overall detoxifying effects as described above, the following is a partial list of things that can be treated with moor therapy.

Absorption of Nutrients  Due to its unique biological and chemical properties the healing factors of the Moor are highly bioavailable and readily assimilated by the body.  When dissolved in bath water, the Moor's healing agents include bitumen, hormones, micro-trace elements and humic acids are taken up by the skin and absorbed into the blood via the skin capillaries.  Taken internally, the Moor drink provides a wealth of easily absorbed nutrients and trace minerals.
