Bioturm Oil Whey Bath
In addition to clay, whey is one of the oldest known remedies for beauty care. Already in antiquity, noble women took whey baths. However, whey was not only added to the bath water, but also drunk. The healers of ancient times attributed extensive healing powers to it. In the Middle Ages, it was one of the most widely used household remedies. Because in contrast to elaborately manufactured medicines it was cheap and one could get hold of it everywhere where there were dairy cows. At the beginning of the 19th century there was a downright whey boom in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The Swiss mountain village of Gais and the Upper Bavarian Kreuth became widely known as whey health resorts.
Many resorts, which did not have any hot springs sniffed their chance and offered whey or milk treatments. Soon this form of cure became that popular that it was offered by almost every health resort. Everywhere whey spas with an integrated cowshed have been built in Swiss half-timber style. At the Willem Milk Curium in Dresden whey was even served on a platform in the middle of cows. With the drinking cures offered there, one tried to cure skin rashes, gastrointestinal complaints and even lung diseases. The success seemed to prove them to be right, for many spa guests attributed their recovery to whey. How this should help with respiratory complaints, however, could not be proven scientifically. At the end of the 19th century many critics pointed out that a whey cure was successful when it took place in a favorable climate. After the turn of the century the interest in whey cures decreased slowly. Today, it is immaterial in the field of medical spa treatments. For a few decades the whey was even forgotten and ended up mostly as animal food. Today, the by-product of cheese production is experiencing a renaissance.
Regardless of the promises made by the health resorts of the 19th century, the beneficial effect of whey on the skin is undoubted. Whey contains lactic acid, which is very important for our organism and is even produced by it. It plays a particularly important role for the skin, since it is a component of the protective acid mantle. Due to the lactic acid contained, whey helps the skin during regeneration. In addition, it provides moisture and fat, ensuring a pleasant skin feeling. Especially for people with particularly sensitive skin, whey is therefore an interesting alternative to conventional care products. How wonderfully relaxing this care can be is shown by the Oil Whey Baths of Bioturm.
