Icelanders love their health business, which you can experience
first hand at the mud baths of Hveragerdi. This is
the best thing to do after a long trek - relax in a lot of
sloppy, slimy, smelly mud. This is probably unique in that
it is the only place where people come and reside in the clinic.The
clinic was founded in 1955 by doctor Jónas Kristjánsson
who introduced new and revolutionary ideas about nutrition,
health and health care. The clinic combines modern medical
science with Icelandic health care traditions. A mud bath
at the NFLI clinic will cost you 2,200 Icelandic Kronur, around
$22, but is definitely money well spent.
Glorious Mud
Mud is very good for your skin. One of the things it will
do most is increase the blood supply to the skin.Treatments
include an anti-aging mask, or muds used to treat acne and
problem skins. Muscles and arthritic pain can also be treated
with mud as well as sore ligaments and headaches. |
