The benefits of hydrotherapy
The 37°C water combined with massage by jets :
•Helps to find emotional balance and serenity.
•Improves the blood circulation by the distension of vessels.
•Increases the contribution in oxygen and nutriments.
•Evacuates toxins of your body.
•Relaxes the muscular fibers and relaxes your muscles.
•Relieves high blood pressures, migraines and chronic pains due to the stress.
•Helps for the concentration.
•Helps to sleep.
•Reduces the diabetes of type 2, by reducing the level of sugar in the blood.
•Relieves the arthritis :
✴By decreasing the inflation of the articulations, warming them.
✴By releasing capsules (tissus around the articulations), improving their mobility.
✴By softening tissues of collagen which allow a better mobility.
✴By strengthening muscles and restoring the amplitude of movements.
✴By stimulating the production of endomorphin: an anti pain hormone.
Greater well-beeing :
The recommended duration for a massage session by jets is 30 minutes. Ideally in the evening before going to bed.
The variable power jets in our spas are strategically located:
✔ Cervical and shoulder massage: The comfortable head support combined with the high injectors helps relieve stress tension and relaxes the shoulders. The small cascade on the back of the neck completes the relaxation.
✔ Lumbar, back and buttocks: Massage of the contracture areas, adjustment of the power of the jets for a softer massage, or simple relaxation with the blower system (air bubbles). Feet: This area, from which many nerves start, is very sensitive.
✔ Foot massage relaxes the whole body by activating circulation at specific points of the foot. Strategically positioned jets are designed for stimulating streams to reach the entire foot surface.
History of the spa
Since immemorial times, people all over the world used the therapeutic qualities of the warm water. The Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Turks, Japanese and Scandinavians used warm bath in common.
The romans gave its name to the spa : Sanum per Aqua. Their ancient baths were vast arenas of water where hundreds of citizens met, becoming places of exchange and social life.
In Japan, the warm water baths were called "Ofuro", family traditional custom for centuries.
In the USA, the first wooden hot tubs appeared in the 60s. They were prototypes inspired by the Ofuros, made with oak barrels. Joe Jacuzzi and his 6 brothers, an Italian family living in California, invented the current spa by patenting the "Whirlpool" pump, which they later combined with jets.
