Balneology is the science of medical application of water, especially of curative springs and of peloids, mainly in spas. Peat therapy in balneology and health care has a long tradition. However, modern peat therapy methods have been in use since the early 19th century in Central Europe, where the oldest spas, still active today, are located in the Czech Republic.
Peat mud and suspension baths as well as poultices are the most common types of peat application in balneotherapy.
The effect of peat therapy is based on the combined influence of physical uplift and high temperature of mud-baths, the antiseptic effects of peat and the biochemically active substances in it. Of particular importance in the treatment are the organic, humic substances in the peat, which can penetrate the skin, influencing enzymatic and hormone activity.
