Hydrospa Water Therapy

The word spa is taken from the famous natural mineral water
springs at Spa in Belgium and has become used as a common
noun to describe any place with a mineral or medicinal
spring. Hydro is a prefix meaning produced or derived
from water or the flow and movement in water and one
obvious example is "Hydroelectricity" electricity derived
from Water. So the point of all this is to try and define
the word Hydrospa and my own thinking is that is a spa
effect derived form the movement or flow of water. Water is
an amazing resource. With out we would not survive on the
planet. A liquid that we can drink and sustain life but is
a fluid capable of being solid when frozen and often used
in physiotherapy to help recovery from injuries and to
relieve muscle stiffness and aches by assisting in the
reduction of lactic acid. Warm soothing water helps to open
the blood vessels to naturally assist and improve blood
circulation round the body. The increased circulation
helps to bring nutrients and thereby helps the tissue and
muscle groups around arthritic joints relax, and promotes
the flow of endorphins in the body.

Treatment by massage to the hands and feet is known as
Reflexology and this is based on the fact that there are
reflexes in the feet and hands that correspond to various
parts of the body. The massaging effect of the warm water
helps to apply gentle pressure to the feet and hands
increasing circulation and providing respite to specific
joint and muscular functions.

Modern day hot Tubs using the Hydrospa system, have a
flow of water from a variety of massage Jets so that the
combined mixing of air and warm water produces a nice Jet
or stream of warm water that massages the body and limbs
that in many ways reproduces the ancient practice of water
massage therapy for the 21st Century. For many thousands of
years, people have naturally been drawn to the hot springs
and Spa's such as at Spa in Belguim where the water
naturally springs from the earth bubbling naturally aerated
and often full of heat. Relaxing heat, muscle stimulation,
and lighter-than-air buoyancy help to relieve physical
burdens and brighten the spirits. Researchers have observed
the healing effects of this type of therapy which I will
call Hydrospa therapy. This Hydrospa therapy provides
improved circulation, decreased joint pain, and
acceleration of the body's natural healing processes. No
scientific research is needed to appreciate these benefits:
the instinctive comfort of getting into soothing warm
massage jet driven water. Stress & strain of modern day
life to release itself into the warm waters and the spring
in your step after a hydrospa session in a modern Hot Tub
is noticeable. Lastly Aromatherapy is defined as the use of
evaporating plant oils, including essential oils, for
psychological and physical well-being. Specific scents can
have beneficial effects on your mind and body. In
conclusion there are many advantages to be gained by the
regular use of Hot Tub and the Hydrospa Treatment that it
provides
