Right from the first treatment Thermal Mud will create a smoother, softer and more radiant appearance.
Natural New Zealand Skincare

Rotorua is renowned for the curative and invigorating properties of the many hot pools and mineral spas. For many years Rotorua's Grey Mud has been used for its healing properties in the local Queen Elizabeth II hospital. The properties are retained in the Thermal Mud used in the preparation of all PARRS Thermal Mud products. Parrs Thermal Mud comes from Rotorua, which lies within the extensive belt of thermal activity traversing the centre of the North Island of New Zealand. Extending from White Island, a live volcano at sea in the Bay of Plenty, and then travels west across Rotorua and the surrounding area, finally diminishing in the active volcanoes of Ngaruahoe and Ruapehu in the Tonagriro National Park, in the centre of the North Island. Rotorua is located in an extremely active thermal region with active geysers, boiling mud pools, smoking fumaroles, hot water springs and former live volcanoes. The thermal Mud used in all the skincare products is firstly obtained from the hot mud pools. The Mud is sterilized then refined to remove any foreign matter such as volcanic ash residues, ensuring all the mineral and trace elements are left to benefit this highly theraputic mud. After this it is then ready for inclusion in our range of quality products.
