This is the country of salt caves, natural mud baths, and hay flower liver detox compresses.
In Austria taking the waters – both drinking them and bathing in them – as well as all-over mud body wraps are seen by many as important elements of a health regime and the annual spa ‘cure’ has become an accepted part of everyday life.
