As a documentary... it is very good... it brings back memories...

Back when the Romans moved north over Europe... they built their encampments where there were springs (these later became the cities as Budapest et al). The ladies (of the night) followed the soldiers, and they used the (thermal) springs for their beauty and added mud (fango) for treatments of their facaades and all else (see www.gbhotels.it in Abano Terme Italy).

One might say that today in the west, Mud or Fango is worshipped by many Young Ladies... for quite differing reasons to the Hindu!
