Physical properties of peloids prepared with medicinal mineral waters from Lanjarón Spa (Granada, Spain)

This study has practical potential since: 1) it uses relatively common and easily-accessible raw materials; for example, the MMW are in current use. 2) Peloids with physical properties suitable for spa use were obtained: fine texture, cooling times of up to 30 min above indifferent temperature, and evolved microfabric. And 3) it provides information on optimum MT according to each property studied, which is always of interest in the spa industry.
