HYDROTHERAPY is the use of water for healing purposes, has been used traditionally by cultures such as ancient Greece and Rome, China, and Japan. Hydrotherapy uses the buoyancy, warmth, and effects of the water's turbulence to tone up the body, stimulate digestion, the circulation and the immune system, and to bring relief from pain. Hydrotherapy is a therapeutic application of water possessing healing properties in various forms, temperature to aid the
body's natural inborn healing forces.


IMPORTANCE OF HYDROTHERAPY FOR HEALTH & WELL-BEING
The Skin - Hydrotherapy applies various techniques of temperature variations of water on skin and application of water or herbal water on specific reflex areas of skin to give specific therapeutic effect on human being.

Water - About 60 per cent of the body weight is attributed to water. Water provides a medium in which chemical reactions occur. Water transports substances from one place to another within the body. Water helps to regulate the body temperature.

The therapeutic effects of Hydrotherapy depends on application of specific water variables with respect to type of water and temperature of water, based on the functions of skin and reflex areas of the skin :

 
1.
Skin prevents fluid loss from the blood. Vasoconstriction of dermal vessels diverts blood flow to other organs.
2.
Skin is the alternative excretory route for some salts and nitrogenous wastes. Skin limits fluid loss.
3. Skin prevents pathogen entry. Connective tissue cells in the skin activate the immune response.
4. Muscular system generates heat to warm the skin.
5. Skin synthesises Vitamin D needed for absorption and metabolism of calcium essential for muscle contraction.
6. Skin protects underlying tissues from mechanical, chemical and thermal injury.
7. Skin sense receptors detect information about the environment. The dermis of the skin contains numerous sense receptors for heat, cold, pain, touch and pressure. The sense receptors in the dermis relay information about the environment to the brain so that changes can be made to prevent or minimize injury.
8. Skin helps to regulate body temperature through constriction and dilation of blood vessels, sweat gland activity.

When there is excess heat in the body, and body temperature rises above normal, the small arteries in the dermis dilate to
increase blood flow through the skin. This brings the heat from the deeper tissues to the surface so that it can escape into the surrounding air. Sweat glands become active in response to increased temperature. Moisture, in the form of sweat, accumulates on the surface of the skin and then evaporates to provide cooling effect in the body.
If body temperature falls below normal
, the sweat glands are inactive and the blood vessels in the skin constrict to reduce blood flow. Constriction of blood vessels reduces the amount of heat transferred from the deeper tissues to the surface.
If the skin becomes too cold, below 15 Centigrade
cutaneous blood vessels dilate to bring warm blood to the region so that the tissues are not damaged by the cold.

The Colon - part of the large intestine - is the body's major eliminative organ. Large intestine is the palce where water and nutrients from the food we eat can be digested and absorbed by the body. From the colon, waste material moves on to the rectum and anus, where it is discharged. One major purpose of the the colon is to draw moisture out of the stool. Colon hydrates the body, contributing water and electrolytes (biochemical ions necessary for all nerve-cell transmission to blood plasma via the lymph system). The drier the faecal matter, the harder they are to move along the colon. The drier the faecal matter, they create toxins and gas which, absorbed by body leads to unhealthy body. In extreme cases, the toxins absrobed from the colon can lead to toxemia. The absroption of any amount of toxins can affect the immune system and contribute to ill health. If the colon is weak or dysfunctioning - and does not properly send the waste onto the rectum - the body builds up overload of waste material. Then the eliminatory organs - the liver, kidney, skin, and lungs - must work even harder to eliminate the waste from the body.

 
There are several general causes for waste (toxins) build up in the human body

1.
BAD DIETARY HABITS
  Eating low fibre in foods
  Eating high fat foods
  Eating too much or too quickly
  Poor food combination
2.
NOT ENOUGH WATER
Drinking coffee, tea, alcohol or colas that contain caffeine that dehydrates the stool.
3. EMOTIONAL STRESS
The "fight or flight" stress reaction to anger, frustration, fear, overwork, and unhappy life circumstances all involve the release of adrenaline. Adrenaline triggers defensive needs, like an alert mind and tense muscles, but slows or shuts down "non-essentail systems" like digestion and elimination.
4. PSYCHOLOGICAL PROHIBITIONS
Negative feelings.
5. BAD HABITS AS ADULTS
Ignoring the call of nature or being in jobs that don't allow you to go to the bathroom when you feel the need. This ruins the tone of th sigmoid colon and rectum muscles - the parts that push out the faecal matter.
6. ILLNESSES
Long bed rest, anaesthetics used for an operation, or pain-relieving medication can result in sluggish body functions.
7. PHYSCAL STRESS OR DEFECTS
Genetic or accidental impaiment of nerve functioning or spinal misalignment.

As unique as your finger print, So unique is our customization® of
"Relax-Detox-Rejuvenate-Heal" concepts of Ancient & Traditional Medicine Wisdom (Ayurveda Lifestyle Wisdom, Yoga, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Naturopathy, Aromatherapy) to restore internal environment conditions (chemical content, volume, temperature, and pressure of body's tissue fluid) balance and stability, within normal ranges, essential to achieve and maintain Holistic (Body-Senses-Mind-Soul) Well-Being (Health-Fitness-Beauty)

When the body is healthy, the internal environment (tissue fluid that surrounds and bathes every cell of the body) conditions (chemical content, volume, temperature, and pressure of body's tissue fluid) remains stable within normal ranges, essential to achieve and maintain Holistic (Body-Senses-Mind-Soul) Well-Being (Head-to-toe Health-Fitness-Beauty)

ILLNESS - LACK OF HOMEOSTASIS :
If the Internal Environment conditions (chemical content, volume, temperature and pressure of body's tissue fluid) deviate from normal, body's mechanisms respond that try to restore Internal environment (tisue fluid) conditions to normal.

If the body's mechanisms are unsuccessful, to restore the conditions (chemical content, volume, temperature and pressure) of body's tissue fluid (internal environment) to normal, the cell malfunctions and dies. This leads to illness or disease.

A lack of Internal Environment (tissue fluid) well-being leads to illness or disease.


Holistic Health and Well-Being:
In human beings all processes like growth, respiration, digestion, and excretion are inter related. No part of the body , from the smallest cell to a complete body system works in isolation. All organ systems of the body function together, in fine-tuned balance, for the Holistic health and well-being of the individual to maintain life.
