A treatment in Pomorie: prices of sanatoriums, health resorts and procedures

Many people have expressed great interest to have a treatment in Pomorie, which is famous for its curative mud. But the Internet doesn’t have a lot of information about Pomorie. Basically, you can find forums with reviews as old as five years, and the more surprising is that the authors have never been to Bulgaria. We could not find any full description of sanatoriums, health resorts, hotels and procedures, that are offered.

This article attempts to explain Pomorie and its mud, which is known for its curative mud.

What is the difference of curative mud of Pomorie?

In this article, we will not go into the unique composition of the therapeutic mud of Lake Pomorie – much better if specialists in the clinic will tell you about it. We can only say that many people compare them with the waters of The Dead Sea in terms of healing properties.

Therapeutic mud of Pomorie is considered one of the most effective. Europeans, Americans, (mostly of retirement age), and Russian tourists come here for treatment.

Besides the therapeutic mud, tourists also come for the mineral water because of its purported unique medicinal properties (it contains a lot of fluoride and magnesium, among other low content of mineral supplements).

Even a simple recreation at local black sand, which is rich in iron and is considered extremely useful for the musculoskeletal system, will be useful.

And the last option of local treatment is lye, which is used for the treatment of upper respiratory tract. This oleaginous yellow liquid contains a range of various organic and mineral substances and is considered to be extremely effective.

Pomorie Grand Hotel – Balneohotel Pomorie

The leading hotel of Pomorie offers a complex of medical procedures. The main advantage – you do not have to stand in queues every day in the hospital or to stay in the ward with other people, as all treatments will take place in comfortable conditions of the hotel.

The hotel itself is located in the old part of the city, just a few steps from Lake Pomorie. Nearby there is a nice sandy beach where you can swim or sunbathe.

Sunset Resort

It is one of the largest hotel complexes in Pomorie. Its advantages include the excellent level of service and comfort, but the main disadvantage is probably its location. The hotel is located in the new part of Pomorie, quite far from the old city center (30 minutes walk or 5 minutes by bus, fare – 2 levs).

Interhotel Pomorie

The last hotel in our selection, where there is a really worthy complex of therapeutic procedures. Unlike previous variants, it is suitable for thrifty tourists, who do not have the ability to pay for five-star service, but have the desire to improve their health.

Hotel “Trakiets”

Directly at the hotel there are no medical procedures. The main reason why we included it into our selection – is its convenient location (close to the beach and a 5-minute walk from the hospital) and an information about the mud therapy on the hotel’s website. At least, the hotel staff will provide you with the necessary information. This is not too bad, actually.

Hotel “Zeus”

The reason why we have added this hotel to our selection, is similar to the previous variant – it is located close to the hospital and in a beautiful place. Hotel staff knows about the features of mud therapy and can help you in case of any problems.
