Antler baths

On average, stags live eight to nine years and have their antlers sawn off seven times over the course of their lifetimes, beginning at age two. Stags with larger antlers (over 10 kilograms) are selected for breeding, which focuses on improving the quality of velvet antlers.

Not far from the boiling tanks used in processing the antlers, there are rooms where visitors can take an antler bath. Famous throughout the world, velvet antler baths have very strong healing properties, and visitors from Russia and abroad come here for them – each farm receives about 150 bath aficionados every six weeks.

“Doctors say that the carbon-13 isotope is released during the cooking of antlers,” said Alexei Nepriyatel, deputy director of the National Medical Research Institute for Velvet Antler Production, based in Barnaul, capital of the Altai region. “When a patient takes an antler bath, the isotope penetrates the skin and subcutaneous tissue, reaching the body’s cells and thus improving recovery.”

Maral blood is also used to prepare therapeutic products. It is believed that blood receives its healing properties after it goes through the growing antlers and becomes almost a cure-all medicine.

“In particular, a bath with maral blood removes lactic acid from the body,” said Alexander Shebalin, technical director of the Moscow Anti-Doping Medical Center and inventor of the maral blood vacuum processing method. “Patients feel a surge of energy and the body is in fact rejuvenated.”

Shebalin was the first person in Russia to take up this business over 20 years ago. Currently, he produces the source material for manufacturing medications – dried blood – in Altai, using special patented equipment that Shebalin and his colleagues have developed themselves.
