Baden-Württemberg's spas and health resorts have always been synonymous with relaxation and regeneration using natural remedies, which are used in treatments, therapies, and wellness applications. These remedies are increasingly being used in high-quality natural cosmetics. A journey through the health resorts shows how water, earth, and air become part of cosmetics.
Water, earth, and air are among nature's oldest and most effective remedies. Even the Romans used warm thermal and spring water in their baths to strengthen body and mind. Earth was used in the form of mud, fango, and clay in mud baths and has been known for its beneficial effects for centuries. The climate and thus the air also play a decisive role. In health resorts with a therapeutic climate, the pure air is particularly beneficial and can contribute to the regeneration of body and soul during hikes – for example, in the Black Forest. All three elements unfold their effects individually and can naturally support relaxation, health, and well-being.
You can find out what they can do and where they are used in the magazine articles “Water as a remedy,” “The Power of the Earth” and “Beneficial air as a remedy.”



Natural remedies have shaped the health culture in Baden-Württemberg for centuries. Their effects are not limited to spa centers or therapy pools, but extend far beyond. More and more spas and health resorts are also using their valuable resources for high-quality natural cosmetics. Water, earth, and brine are finding their way into creams, lotions, and shower products that bring the beneficial effects of health resorts directly into the home. Four examples from the spas and health resorts in Baden-Württemberg show how tradition and modernity go hand in hand here.
Bad Mergentheim – The best of Paul:
The vegan and natural brine care range “DAS BESTE VON PAUL” is manufactured by Galvagni Schönheit in Bad Mergentheim. It contains effective and natural ingredients and is free from parabens, mineral oils, colorants, and animal testing. At the heart of the products is the carbon dioxide-rich brine water from the Paulsquelle spring, which was discovered in 1952 at a depth of 551 meters. With its high mineral content, it is used in Bad Mergentheim for therapies in brine pools and in the graduation pavilion. It is now also found in skincare products for home use.
Bad Dürrheim – SALZQUELL Natural Cosmetics:
In 1822, a salt dome was discovered in Bad Dürrheim at a depth of 105 meters. Since 1851, the mineral-rich brine contained therein has been used for health and well-being in baths and inhalations. Since 2015, the brine has also been used for natural cosmetics. SALZQUELL is a natural cosmetics brand that is regional, alkaline, and vegan. The products combine highly concentrated brine with the low-salt healing water from Bad Dürrheim's Bertolds Quelle spring and are supplemented with herbs and plant substances. The result is creams, shower gels, body lotions, and hand creams that can support skin regeneration, loosen and smooth dandruff, and promote natural cell renewal.
Bad Schönborn – Natural brine:
It forms the basis of a unique cosmetics range consisting of body lotion, shower gel, shower cream, face cream, hand cream, and foot cream. It combines valuable minerals from the Lambertus spring with the medicinal plant organic woad. This medicinal plant has been valued for its regenerative properties for over 2000 years. Together, the natural, high-quality active ingredients can promote skin formation, provide vitality, support regeneration, and offer lasting care.
Bad Wildbad – HydroEssence and ForestEssence:
These two essences are part of the cosmetics and body care lines from the Bad Wildbad skincare range. HydroEssence reflects the vitality and purity of the ocean and water. This line includes hair and body shampoo as well as hand and body lotion, which combine care with sustainability and are available in 100% recycled plastic packaging. The products contain vegan, pH-neutral formulas, sea minerals, and algae extracts that can provide small moments of wellness. ForestEssence transports you into nature and can provide a relaxing experience for body and mind. The body care products contain woody scents from recycled sandalwood, pine needles, and cedarwood, as well as exquisite oils. The ingredients they contain come from recycled materials that are used efficiently.
Whether water, earth, or air: Baden-Württemberg's natural remedies have been an integral part of the region's spa tradition for centuries. Today, their beneficial effects can be found in care products that combine health, naturalness, and effectiveness. The spa resorts demonstrate how proven remedies enrich modern natural cosmetics.
