Tambukan mud — medicinal properties

Nature is generous with gifts, and one of them is the Tambukan mud. It would seem that how can some black sticky substance benefit the body? But it can, and this has been proven by more than a century of successful application. Peloids are extracted from the bottom of Lake Tambukan, which is located on the border of the Stavropol Territory and Kabardino-Balkaria, near the city of Essentuki. The deposit in the reservoir has about 1.5 million tons of healing mud.

Unique properties of Tambukan mud

Therapeutic mud from Lake Tambukan is formed as a result of decomposition and fermentation of microorganisms of flora and fauna.
