Here, granite balls are moulded from misshapen stones with the help of water. The water that flows there is also a very special water - the so-called Irx water. The pure, uncontaminated water from the primary rock formed during the Tertiary period is bottled directly at the source. This natural spring is extremely rare in such high quality and is highly valued in expert circles. Irx water is a particularly mild, low-lime and low-sodium water of exceptional purity with a very high dissolving capacity. Everything "useless" is gently removed from the body. Irx water contains few inorganic minerals and therefore has a high electrical resistance. It also has the highest bioenergetic properties.
