Thalassotherapy comes
from the Greek word 'Thalssa' for the sea. It is a natural therapy
using seawater in many different types of relaxing and reviving
therapies, such as hydro baths, jet spray and body wraps.
If you want to unwind and pamper yourself, this
is one of the best ways to do it. Thalassotherapy uses natural seawater,
with all its benefits and nutrients for the skin, to revive and
de-stress you. There are many hotels in Andalucia, which offer Thalassotherapy
treatments. There are interesting packages from two to three days
or even one or two weeks. Along the Costa del Sol and Costa de la
Luz, several the four and five star hotels have a luxurious spa
area. Many of these hotels are on golf courses, which often suits
couples where just one is a golfer and so the other can enjoy the
spa treatments.
Thalassotherapy is one of the oldest, most natural
and best ways to treat stress. It involves the use of seawater,
normally heated to a comfortable temperature of 37 degrees Celsius.
Most spas offer different types of 'cure', using various methods,
such as marine hydrotherapy is a form of Thalassotherapy where
water jets propel the seawater, which massages, stimulates circulation
and reduces pain and inflammation. Other treatments include a spa
bath with added nutrients where you relax normally for around
20
- 30 minutes. The mineral and nutrient rich properties are both
curative and restorative, for both internal and external benefit.
