mudbath
Therapeutic dirt immersion
A mudbath is a treatment in which someone immerses themselves in warm mud, typically at a spa, for therapeutic or cosmetic purposes.
The mud is believed to draw out impurities and soothe aching muscles.
Figuratively, mudbath describes any situation that becomes extremely messy or dirty: The rugby match turned into a mudbath after the rain started.
It can also characterize a nasty public dispute involving insults and accusations: The campaign descended into a mudbath.
