Hydrotherapy Techniques

Hydrotherapy is healing through the external application of water, but another important element is temperature. Hot water increases circulation, improves immune response, and encourages the removal of toxins from the body. It is also soothing to the nervous system. Cold is ideal for reducing inflammation and even lowering fevers. Using both hot and cold water therapy has an even more marked effect on the body, stimulating organs, increasing blood and lymphatic circulation, improving the flow of oxygen and nutrients through the body, and relieving the body of harmful toxins and microbes. All of this has the end result of speeding the healing process and supporting wellness.
