Original Rugian Healing-Chalk
– Health and Beauty From Jasmunds Natural Pharmacy
The first spa visitors at the end of the nineteenth century were already seeking recovery from noise and bad air of the growing cities. And an active holiday on Jasmund is until now good for your health and well-being. The healthy sea breeze combined with the air of coastal woods cleans the respiratory tracts and increases the oxygen supply. The wellness departments of many domiciles in the countryside can compete with those of the famous spa resorts.
The most important product for beauty and health is the Rugian healing chalk, quarried on the peninsula Jasmund. As “Original Rugian healing-chalk” it is won in the chalk-mill in Klementelvitz. Already in 1910 the healing potential of this natural material was applied. The charming chalk museum in Gummanz informs about the history and production of the chalk.
Today the healing chalk is again applied with great success by many physiotherapists and wellness-specialists. The healing power of the chalk is proven by expert reports. They testify that the Rugian chalk is a most valuable peloid and therefore well suited to be applied in the classical chalk therapy. It works positively on rheumatic trouble and diseases of the muscular-skeletal system, but also on gout, osteoporosis and muscular tenseness. Also urological diseases and those of the gastrointestinal tract can successfully be healed supported by its substances.
The soft structure of the chalk and its clear white colour also activate the senses. In a bath, with aromatic substances added it works wonders. For cosmetical use it is mixed with seawater, cream or buckthorn. Some
