Lo Pagan - Mar Menor - Costa Calida - Spain
Lo Pagan on the Mar Menor (lesser sea) is best known for its therapeutic mud baths, the mud has been renowned from early times for its healing powers.
Due to the long hours of sunlight and the very high salt level in the waters a unique mud has been created in a section of the lake known as La Puntica - the mud contains high levels of potassium, calcium, magnesium, flouride, sulphur and chlorine. The mud is recommended for many skin conditions including acne, abscesses, sores and ulcers, it also has a stimulating effect on wound healing.
The mud is also recommended for its anti-imflammatory effect on rheumatism, arthritis, gout and for rehabilitation after a bone fracture. The mud is applied over the infected areas and allowed to dry in the sun before being washed off in the salt waters.
The salt water itself is also known for its healing effects. Lo Pagan is in the Costa Calida region of the province of Murcia, south-eastern Spain.
