Yes. The popularity of mud treatments (scientifically known as pelotherapy) has encouraged scientists to research this form of therapy. Most of the research that has come out of such studies was conducted in the twentieth century. In Druskininkai this was carried out by the Lithuanian Centre of Balneological Research.

In 2014, forty doctors from Spain, Italy, and Argentina analysed all of the available pelotherapy research that had been described in worldwide medical literature and came to one conclusion: mud treatment has a significant effect upon human health and should be recommended by doctors as a cheaper and more natural substitute for some forms of drug treatment.*

It is said that mud treatments are effective when treating chronic inflammations, allergies, autoimmune diseases, and diseases that are associated with the joints, muscles, digestive system, and the peripheral nervous system, plus gynaecological and urological diseases. These treatments have virtually no side effects and are suitable for holidaymakers of any age from eighteen years upwards.**
