This local clay treatment stimulates the blood circulation, metabolism, digestion and the lymphatic system. It is applied by a therapist depending on the problem area; as a cool pack for inflammation or as a warm pack for tight muscles. If they are applied regularly (a minimum of five treatments in a row is recommended) the blood circulation will improve and therefore the oxygen supply, functionality of the tissue and joints will also improve.
