Saint George Hotel, the keeper of traditions, invites you to immerse yourself in the magic of this town, where the past and the present dance in harmony, and hospitality is an art perfected over generations. Pomorie through the eyes of locals: Stories woven by the sea Ivan Georgiev: The Fisherman's Soul of Pomorie Imagine a morning when the first rays of sunlight touch the sea and the air is filled with the aroma of salt and freedom. Ivan Georgiev, a fourth-generation fisherman, tells with nostalgia: "As a child, I helped my grandfather prepare the nets at dawn, and then we would carry fresh fish to the market near the old church of the Holy Transfiguration. That was my childhood — the sea is in my blood." Today, Ivan is proud to see how the guests of the Saint George Hotel enjoy traditional dishes — from crispy sprat, grilled with Pomorie salt, to juicy turbot, imbued with the aroma of the sea. "Every bite in our restaurant is a piece of the soul of Pomorie," he adds with a smile. Maria Dimitrova: The Master of Healing Mud Maria Dimitrova has dedicated over three decades to the healing gifts of Pomorie Lake. At the SPA center of the Saint George Hotel, she transforms healing mud and lye into an art of restoration. "Mud is like a black diamond — a gift from nature that heals the body and soothes the soul," she shares. "I watch our guests arrive tired, but leave with a sparkle in their eyes. After each procedure, their stress melts like salt in the waves." Her hands, imbued with experience and care, create magic that transforms everyone who crosses the threshold of our SPA center. Guests tell us: Memories that last forever Elena Stoyanova: Discovering authentic Bulgaria "When I arrived in Pomorie, I didn't expect to find so much soul in a small town," says Elena Stoyanova, a hotel guest. "At Saint George Hotel I was greeted with warmth, as if I were an old friend — with a plate of fragrant orange baklava and sincere smiles." Her walk to the Pomorie salt pans at sunset takes her to a world of ancient traditions, where salt, mined since the time of the Thracians, tells stories of hard work and a connection with nature. "The evenings at the hotel restaurant were like a journey through time — fresh fish prepared according to old recipes and a taste you can't forget. This was my love affair with Bulgaria." The Petrovi Family: Coziness and Adventure for the Whole Family "We were looking for a place where our children could have fun and we could find peace," say the Petrovi family. "At Saint George Hotel we found all this and much more." Their children fall in love with the stories of Ancient Anhialo, told by the receptionist, while the parents indulge in SPA treatments with healing mud. "Our participation in the city's cultural events made us feel like part of the community. Pomorie is not just a destination — it feels like home."

This is the moment when you realize — you have arrived in your own personal paradise. Pomorie: The Mystical Heart of Bulgarian Wellness In the arms of the Black Sea, where Ancient wisdom intertwines with modern comfort, Pomorie stands out as a magical destination. Here, where the healing mud keeps the secrets of millennia, and the wine tells the stories of generations of masters, every moment becomes a ceremony of rebirth. The city does not just offer rest — it offers transformation. It is the place where stress dissolves like the morning mist, and the soul finds its true rhythm, synchronized with the Ancient pulsations of the sea. Nature as a healer Pomorie mud is not just a natural product — it is a living heritage, enriched with 40 minerals and countless stories of healing. Every drop of seawater, every crystal of salt carries the power to awaken what modern life has put to sleep in us. Day One: The Embrace of the Sea Afternoon: Welcoming the Soul The doors of Saint George Hotel open not just to a room, but to a new world. The herbal drink in your hands is the first gentle touch of this place — warm, aromatic, carrying within itself all the wisdom of the local herbs. The window of your room frames the infinity of the sea, turning every sunrise into a personal meditation. "At that moment your heart begins to beat in unison with the waves." Dusk: The Ritual of Revival Pomorie Mud — Ancient Magic As the warm mud envelops your body, every cell begins to remember its pristine purity. This is not just a procedure — it is a dialogue with the deepest layers of the skin, awakening dormant vital forces and expelling the toxins of modernity. Himalayan Salt Sauna — A Journey to Yourself In the pink glow of the salt crystals, the air becomes as pure as a mountain spring. Every inhale is a blessing, every exhale releases accumulated worries. Here, in this cocoon of ancient salt, your body learns to breathe freely again. Aromatherapy Massage — Poetry of Touch The therapist's skillful hands dance on your skin, carrying the essence of the Black Sea herbs. Lavender whispers of peace, rosemary awakens forgotten powers, and thyme tells tales of childhood summers. Every movement is a verse in the poem about returning to oneself. Evening: Culinary poetry under the stars Dinner is not just a meal — it is an art, where every dish tells a story: The seaweed carpaccio — tender as sea foam, combined with the creamy goat cheese and the crunch of pumpkin seeds, creates an overture of flavors; The turbot fillet — the noble fish, embraced by white wine and lemongrass, dances on the palate like a marine symphony; Pomorie honey mousse — the final chord, where the sweetness of honey intertwines with the richness of nutty tones.

As the sun rises from the depths of the sea, your body stretches towards the light like a flower towards dawn. Every pose is a prayer, every breath — gratitude for the new day.

Balneotherapy and mud therapy on the Bulgarian Black Sea Coast: Natural treatment from north to south Why the Black Sea Coast is preferred for mud therapy in Bulgaria The Bulgarian Black Sea Coast is blessed with unique natural features that make it a prime destination for health tourism. Along the coast are numerous deposits of healing mud and mineral and salt springs, formed over the millennia, which have made the region famous for balneotherapy and mud therapy since Antiquity. The characteristic super-salty lakes, estuaries and lagoons of the Black Sea create the perfect conditions for the formation of high-quality healing mud with exceptional therapeutic properties. Combined with the favorable sea climate, this turns the Black Sea resorts into natural centers for natural treatment and recovery. According to data from the Ministry of Tourism, over 120,000 tourists annually visit the Black Sea coast specifically for balneology and mud therapy, which represents a 25% increase in the last five years. This is not surprising, as the Black Sea mud baths offer effective natural treatments for a number of health problems. What are mud baths and their benefits Mud therapy (peloid therapy) is an ancient method of treatment that uses naturally formed healing mud. On the Bulgarian Black Sea coast, mainly estuary mud is found, which has the highest content of minerals and biologically active substances. Main benefits of Black Sea mud baths: Improving blood circulation — sea mud stimulates circulation particularly effectively; Relief of joint and muscle pain — strong anti-inflammatory effect; Skin cleansing — sea mud has a more pronounced detoxifying effect; Stress reduction — the combination of mud therapy and sea climate has a synergistic effect; Assisting in the treatment of dermatological problems — psoriasis, eczema; Improving metabolism — activating metabolic processes. The combination of healing mud, sea water and iodide-bromine air creates a unique healing environment that cannot be reproduced artificially. Bulgarian Black Sea mud has a particularly high content of trace elements and biologically active substances. Black Sea Mud Therapy Tour: From North to South St. St. Constantine and Helena — the first Black Sea resort with rich traditions in balneotherapy Our journey begins at the oldest Black Sea resort in Bulgaria — St. St. Constantine and Elena. Founded in 1908 and originally known as Druzhba, this resort is distinguished by a unique combination of sea climate, 7 mineral springs and modern mud therapy centers. Specifics of balneology and mud therapy in St. St. Constantine and Helena: Combination of mineral waters and mud therapy — a unique combined therapy; Mineral water with a temperature of 40-60°C — ideal for combining with mud treatments; Modern SPA centers and hotels — combining traditional methods with innovative technologies; Year-round operation — possibility of treatment outside the active tourist seasons. The resort offers an integrated approach to health, combining mud therapies with mineral baths, which greatly increases the healing effect. For maximum effect, a minimum 5-day stay is recommended, during which 10-15 procedures should be performed, combined with climate treatment and thalassotherapy. Varna region — a variety of opportunities Just a few kilometers south of St. St. Constantine and Helena is Varna — the sea capital of Bulgaria, which together with its surroundings offers excellent opportunities for mud therapy.: Varna Lake — a rich source of healing mud, used in numerous SPA centers in the city; SPA hotels in Varna — offering high-quality mud treatments in a comfortable environment; Shkorpilovtsi area — a combination of mud baths, a spacious beach and untouched nature. According to statistics from the Varna Tourist Chamber, mud therapy is one of the most sought-after procedures among foreign tourists visiting the region outside the active summer season. Balchik and Tuzlata — the northern treasure of mud therapy Continuing north from Varna, one reaches the unique natural phenomenon of Tuzlata — located 4 km. from the town of Balchik. The name comes from the Turkish word "tuzla", meaning "saltpan", which suggests the high salt content in the local waters and mud. Characteristics of mud therapy in Tuzlata: A combination of estuary mud and healing lye — a unique complex composition; Natural outdoor deposit — possibility for direct mud therapy; Picturesque location overlooking the sea — an additional relaxing effect; Lower prices compared to resort complexes — an affordable alternative. The mud in Tuzlata has a particularly high content of sulfides, which makes it extremely effective for joint diseases. It is recommended to visit during the warmer months (May-October), when conditions allow for full use of the outdoor facilities. Burgas region — mineral springs and mud therapy Descending along the coast to the south, we reach the Burgas region, rich in opportunities for balneology and mud therapy. The Burgas salt pans offer excellent conditions for mud therapy thanks to the healing mud from Atanasovsko Lake — a hypersaline body of water with a specific ecosystem. Peculiarities of mud therapy in the Burgas region: High content of salts and minerals in the mud — more pronounced healing effect; Possibility of combining with lye procedures — complex therapy; Ecologically clean area — part of a protected natural area; Proximity to Burgas and Pomorie, as well as to the resorts of Sunny Beach and Nessebar — convenience for tourists. Unique to the region is the "pink lake" phenomenon — Atanasovsko Lake acquires a pink color during certain periods due to specific microorganisms, which also contribute to the healing properties of the mud. Pomorie — the pearl of mud therapy in Bulgaria Our journey along the Black Sea coast culminates in Pomorie — the undisputed leader in mud therapy not only in Bulgaria, but also in Europe. Pomorie Lake is a source of high-quality estuary healing mud, the formation of which lasted over 7000 years.

How mud treatments work on the Black Sea coast Mud procedures on the Bulgarian Black Sea Coast follow a specific protocol, which includes the following stages: Preliminary consultation — a doctor assesses whether the procedure is appropriate; Preparing the mud — heat it to a certain temperature (about 38-42°C); Applying the mud — over the entire body or locally to problem areas; Period of exposure — usually between 15-30 minutes; Washing — with sea or mineral water; Rest period — 30-60 minutes to absorb the effect. Specific to the Black Sea centers is the possibility of combining mud therapy with sea and mineral baths, which enhances the therapeutic effect. A standard course of mud therapy usually includes 2-3 procedures per day, with a recommended minimum of a 5-day stay, but even single procedures have a noticeable effect, especially for relaxation and improving skin condition.

Contraindications for mud baths: Active tuberculosis; Oncological diseases; Heart failure; Pregnancy; Acute inflammatory processes; Severe forms of hypertension; Skin infections. It is always advisable to consult a doctor before starting mud therapy, especially if you have chronic illnesses. Black Sea balneotherapy during the seasons One of the advantages of Black Sea balneotherapy is the possibility of year-round visits, although the seasons offer different advantages: Spring (March-May): Fewer tourists and a more relaxed atmosphere; Highly preferential prices and discounts for accommodation and procedures; The fresh sea air enhances the healing effect; Ideal time for prevention and strengthening immunity.

"Each season has its own advantages for mud therapy.

Balneotherapy in Pomorie: A complete guide to natural therapies and health benefits Bulgaria has long been known for its spa resorts, but few places can compare to the unique combination of natural healing factors that Pomorie offers. Situated on a narrow peninsula between the Black Sea and Pomorie Lake, the seaside town has established itself as a leading spa destination not only in Bulgaria but throughout Europe. The unique natural resources of Pomorie — a treasury of health Pomorie estuary mud has been formed over millennia at the bottom of Pomorie Lake through complex biochemical processes. This black, thick substance is a real treasure trove of minerals and biologically active substances that have proven therapeutic properties. Clinical studies have shown that Pomorie mud contains over 26 trace elements , including magnesium, calcium, iodine, selenium and zinc, which have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. Its use shows significant results in: Degenerative joint diseases — mud therapy reduces pain and improves mobility in arthritis and arthrosis by up to 70% according to studies by the Medical University of Varna; Skin diseases — psoriasis, eczema, and dermatitis respond positively to mud treatment thanks to its antibacterial properties; Post-traumatic rehabilitation — accelerates the recovery of soft tissues and bones after fractures or surgeries. Rapata — concentrated naval power Rapata is super-salty water from Pomorie Lake, which is 3-4 times more concentrated than sea water. Rich in magnesium, sodium and potassium salts, it has a powerful effect on: Musculoskeletal system — relieves muscle spasms and stimulates blood circulation; Nervous system — has a calming effect and reduces stress; Respiratory system — alkali treatment (inhalations with burdock) significantly improves the condition in chronic bronchitis and sinusitis. Iodine-saturated air — the invisible healer The air in Pomorie contains an increased concentration of iodine, bromine and sea aerosols — a combination that has a beneficial effect on the respiratory system and thyroid gland. A simple walk along the coastal promenade is a natural aeroionotherapy, especially useful for: Asthma and chronic bronchitis; Allergic respiratory diseases; Hypothyroidism. Why is Pomorie preferred throughout the four seasons for balneotherapy? Pomorie stands out from other balneological resorts in Bulgaria with its unique combination of healing factors. Unlike the mineral springs in the interior of the country, here we have a synergistic effect of: Healing mud with an extremely high mineral content; Seawater with proven therapeutic properties; Rapa with high mineral content; Favorable climate with increased iodine content and negative ions. Medical specialists note that it is the combination of all these factors that makes balneotherapy in Pomorie so effective. Saint George Hotel — a modern Medical SPA complex for balneotherapy in Pomorie In the heart of Pomorie's balneological tradition at Saint George Hotel — which has preserved the values of family hospitality and has a Medical SPA concept that combines the centuries-old traditions of Bulgarian balneology with modern standards for health tourism. Specialized procedures at the Saint George Hotel The Medical SPA Center of the Saint George Hotel offers a full range of spa treatments, including: Mud wraps — procedures in which the body or individual parts are wrapped with Pomorie estuary mud, heated to the optimal temperature of 38-42°C for maximum therapeutic effect; Algae therapy — baths with sea salt, which stimulate blood circulation and relieve joint pain; Combined therapies — personalized programs combining different methods of balneotherapy to achieve the best results. All procedures are carried out under the supervision of qualified medical specialists who pre-assess the patient's condition and recommend the most appropriate therapeutic course. International recognition The Medical SPA concept of Saint George Hotel attracts guests from all over Europe, especially from Germany, the Scandinavian countries, Israel and Russia, who appreciate the combination of high-quality treatment and excellent accommodation conditions. Scientific evidence for the effects of Pomorie sea salt and mud A number of scientific studies confirm the healing properties of P omorie's natural resources . A study published in the Journal of Medical Balneology demonstrated that a 21-day course of treatment with Pomorie mud led to a significant reduction in pain and improved functionality in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Another study found that the combination of mud therapy and rapeseed baths increased the effectiveness of standard drug therapy in patients with psoriasis by up to 65%. Pomorie and other Bulgarian health resorts Pomorie or Hisarya While Hisarya is known for its mineral springs, rich in hydrocarbonates and sulfates, Pomorie offers the unique combination of sea water, estuary mud and sea kelp. This combination is particularly effective in treating skin diseases and musculoskeletal problems, while Hisarya waters are more suitable for kidney and urological problems. Pomorie or Devin Devin impresses with its clean mountain air and low-mineralized waters, but for arthritis and skin problems, Pomorie mud and rock salt show faster and more lasting results. In addition, the sea-lake combination of Pomorie creates a unique microclimate that is extremely beneficial for the respiratory system. Advantages of the sea-lake combination It is the symbiosis between the sea and the lake that makes Pomorie a unique balneological center. While the sea water and air have a beneficial effect on the respiratory and nervous systems, the lake provides the valuable healing mud and rock salt. This ecosystem functions as a natural factory for the production of healing substances, which has been working continuously for millennia. Year-round climate — an advantage over seasonal resorts Unlike purely seaside resorts, which are active mainly in the summer, Pomorie offers balneotherapy all year round. The mild Mediterranean climate, with over 300 sunny days per year, allows for procedures to be carried out even during the winter months. In fact, many specialists recommend balneotherapy precisely during the autumn-winter season, when the body is more susceptible to chronic diseases. How to choose a suitable balneotherapy package Age criteria For children (over 7 years old) — shorter procedures with a lower concentration of the mud and a lower temperature of the mud applications are recommended; For adults of active age — complex programs including intensive procedures with mud, sea water and sea salt; For seniors (over 65 years old) — gentle programs with shorter procedures and more rest time between them. Criteria according to diseases For joint and bone problems — mud therapy, alkali therapy, and underwater gymnastics; For skin diseases — mud wraps, rapeseed baths and sea baths; For respiratory problems — inhalations with burdock, sea aerosols and climatotherapy. Budgetary considerations Hotel Saint George offers various packages according to the budget of the guests - from three-day express programs to two-week intensive courses of treatment. The best price-quality ratio is achieved with a 5-6+ day stay, which allows for a full therapeutic course with lasting results. The benefits of the sea during balneotherapy in Pomorie The Black Sea plays an important role in the complex balneotherapy that makes Pomorie so special. Sea water contains almost all the chemical elements present in blood plasma, in similar proportions, which explains its therapeutic effect on the body. Thalassotherapy (seawater treatment) improves: Blood circulation; The immune system; Metabolism; The quality of the skin. The combination of sea baths and procedures with estuary mud gives a synergistic effect that significantly accelerates healing processes. Medical SPA hotels in Pomorie — why choose Saint George Hotel There are several hotels in Pomorie offering balneotherapy, but St. George Medical SPA Complex stands out for: Own medical facility with state-of-the-art equipment; A team of qualified doctors, medical specialists and physiotherapists; Individual approach to each guest; Cozy accommodation conditions combined with healing procedures.

An ancient town, located on a small peninsula between the sea and the salt lake, is distinguished by specific climatic conditions that have attracted people seeking relief from respiratory problems and overall improvement in their health for centuries . The unique microclimate of Pomorie - a combination of sea and estuary Pomorie enjoys a privileged geographical position, creating a unique microclimate. The peninsular location between the open sea and a salt lake (estuary) forms an environment rich in beneficial minerals and natural aerosols. This natural combination creates ideal conditions for the treatment and prevention of respiratory diseases. The air in Pomorie is characterized by exceptional purity, confirmed by objective measurements. According to data from liveairmap.com, the air quality in the area is classified as "good", with impressively low levels of fine dust particles - PM10: 18.49 µg/m³ and PM2.5: 9.52 µg/m³. These indicators make the area particularly favorable for people suffering from asthma, chronic bronchitis, allergies and other respiratory problems. The beneficial effects of marine aerosols on the respiratory system The sea air of Pomorie is saturated with microscopic salt particles and minerals that act as a natural inhaler. When inhaled, these aerosols: Moisturize the respiratory tract, thinning and facilitating the release of secretions; Reduces inflammation of the mucous membranes; Improve mucociliary clearance (the natural self-cleaning of the respiratory tract); They have an antiseptic effect thanks to salt and trace elements. Especially useful are walks along the coast in the early morning hours or at dusk, when the concentration of aerosols is highest and ultraviolet radiation is weaker. Medicinal lye — a natural antibiotic for the respiratory tract Pomorie lye (concentrated saline solution from the estuary) is actively used in inhalations provided in specialized SPA centers of local hotels, including St. George Hotel . These procedures are especially effective for: Chronic sinusitis and rhinitis; Bronchitis and bronchial asthma in remission; Allergic respiratory diseases; Recovery after respiratory tract infectionsа. The combination of lye with aromatherapy with essential oils from local plants enhances the healing effect and creates a complex impact on the respiratory system. Climatic advantages throughout the four seasons The temperate continental climate of Pomorie, shaped by the sea, offers favorable conditions all year round. With an average annual temperature of 12.5°C and over 2360 hours of sunshine per year, the city is distinguished by: Warm, long autumns — ideal for balneoclimatic treatment; Mild winters with relatively few windy days; Gradual warming in spring, without sudden temperature changes; Moderately warm summers, cooled by sea breezes. This makes Pomorie a suitable destination for health tourism in all seasons, with particularly favorable periods in May-June and September-October, when the combination of temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure creates optimal conditions for respiratory therapy. Comprehensive approach: maritime climate and specialized procedures For maximum effect on the respiratory system, experts recommend combining climatotherapy with: Mud therapy with the famous Pomorie estuary mud; Inhalations with lye and essential oils; Outdoor breathing exercises; Thalassotherapy (seawater treatment). Saint George Hotel offers specialized packages including these procedures under medical supervision, tailored to the individual needs of each guest. Scientifically proven benefits for immunity and overall health Staying in the maritime climate of Pomorie not only alleviates existing respiratory problems, but also acts prophylactically, strengthening the immune system. Research shows that regular exposure to this type of climate: Increases vitamin D levels thanks to the many sunny days; Improves oxygen exchange and cellular respiration; Stimulates the production of endorphins - hormones of happiness; Reduces stress levels and improves sleep quality. These effects are particularly valuable for addressing the consequences of chronic fatigue, stress, and urban pollution, which increasingly underlie reduced immunity and increased susceptibility to respiratory infections.

What is the estuary mud from Pomorie?? Pomorie estuary mud is a specific type of peloid (healing mud), formed in the unique ecosystem of Pomorie Lake — one of the most ancient Bulgarian estuaries. This black substance, with a characteristic odor, contains a rich collection of minerals, trace elements and biologically active substances, which make it extremely valuable for medical and cosmetic purposes. Combined with another natural wealth — lye (highly mineralized water from the lake) , Pomorie healing mud forms a powerful therapeutic complex, used for centuries for treatment and prevention. Healing properties of Pomorie healing mud Mud therapy with estuary mud has a thousand-year history and proven effectiveness in many health problems, especially: Musculoskeletal diseases — arthritis, arthrosis, disc herniations; Inflammatory processes in the joints and muscles; Post-traumatic conditions — fractures, bruises, muscle strains; Neurological diseases — neuralgia, radiculitis; Skin problems — psoriasis, eczema, acne; Gynecological diseases; Peripheral vascular diseases.

Procedures with estuary mud raise the body temperature, which makes the combination with the summer heat not particularly recommended. The optimal course of mud therapy in Pomorie hotels usually includes 2-3 procedures per day for 5 days to allow the body to assimilate the beneficial substances and respond adequately to the therapy.
