Nature made them, and for centuries people have been enjoying the health benefits of these elements: the sea, the moor, salt, sulphur, air and water. The sea is a first-class pharmacy in its own right. And three of its treasures that can work medical miracles - namely mud, salt and algae – are used in Thalasso therapy, which is available especially in coastal areas. However, the wide range of spa treatments on offer in Lower Saxony also takes in traditional Chinese medicine, approaches to natural healing from the Far East and beauty applications.
