About
SCIO is a German brand specializing in moor-based heat therapy, offering moor pillows in several sizes and a bath additive, both sourced from peat at Bad Aibling — a town with a documented spa history stretching back to the 1840s, when Bavaria’s first peat-pulp health resort opened there. The company markets its moor as a medically certified natural remedy for muscle tension, joint pain, and rheumatic complaints, sold through pharmacies and specialist retailers. SCIO positions itself as a premium wellness brand, emphasizing German manufacturing and the region’s long tradition of peat therapy.
