thalassotherapy Explained

There is not much research on the benefits of thalassotherapy, but a few studies indicate it may help with some conditions, such as fibromyalgia and musculoskeletal disorders. However, it is not a substitute for medical treatment.

This article discusses thalassotherapy, its health benefits, and how it works. It also looks at related therapies. Thalassotherapy involves the therapeutic use of seawater. It is a common alternative therapy in Europe, particularly in Germany and France. Some colleges of medicine in Europe include thalassotherapy in their curriculum. Thalassotherapy can involve a number of practices, such as: bathing or swimming in seawater applying marine products, such as seaweed, mud, or sand, to the body spending time near the sea taking supplements that contain substances from the sea

Disclaimer: By definition, Thalassotherapy is the use of sea water and all the elements of the marine environment (seaweed, mud, sand, air, marine climate, etc.) for therapeutic purposes. It is always practised in a seaside environment in a specialized centre with medical monitoring. Like blood plasma, seawater contains up to 92 minerals and trace elements that are beneficial to our health. Our body has the capacity to absorb all of these natural elements because its mineral structure is very similar to the structure of seawater: this is called the remineralization of the body.
