The stress of today’s life makes it necessary to find moments of tranquillity and relaxation so as not to suffer the consequences of such a busy lifestyle.
One of the most recommended options to find those moments of relaxation and inner peace are at spa centres, since they offer numerous benefits for our health and well-being.
A spa treatment, be it a therapeutic bath or a massage, offers us a way to relax and eliminate stress and body aches that is essential for maintaining good health. Stress can bring with it many ailments and problems such as weight gain, heart disease, emotional tension, depression or insomnia, among others, and a weekly visit to the spa can be the best way to eliminate tension and improve our mood. Various treatments and therapies, thermal programmes and massages can help us to relax our body and, at the same time, eliminate mental discomfort.
The word hydrotherapy comes from a Greek word which means treatment through water. Hydrotherapy uses water at different temperatures, generally alternating hot and cold water, applying pressurized water jets in baths.
Hot water causes the dilation of superficial blood vessels, favouring circulation under the skin. Cold water causes the opposite effect, the contraction of superficial blood vessels, favouring internal circulation. The pressure exerted by the water jets, and its mechanical effect, will provide a relaxing massage, which also improves the venous return circulation (the flow of blood back to the heart).
We recommend therapeutic baths or spa circuits that combine baths in water at different temperatures – wet or dry – and which have pressurized water jets for massaging. Also, hydromassage bathtubs with pressurized water going from the soles of the feet to the neck.
