It increases the blood flow in the body and is also very beneficial in surgical recovery and throughout the pregnancy and postpartum process. It can also simply be a floating holistic experience that will bring you to a profound state of liberation and relaxation.

WATER MAGIC

Water is an ancient source of health and well-being. It is an essential element of life, with countless therapeutic potentials. The planet and human body are made up of about 70% water. Knowing and taking good care of this fluidity determines the vitality of our health and of the world around us. In any of its states, water not only hydrates and nourishes: it cleans, vibrates, reverberates, stores memory, transforms, and allows for the existence of life.

Types of our sessions

Regardless of whether you want to relax or treat a physical condition, a session in the water will help to relax the body and revitalize the organism. The experience will allow a new perception of the senses and the awakening of liquid memories. A forgotten link to the water element and how beneficial it can be for us. From undulating movements, massages, floating and submersion, the guided body relaxes and flows with a river of warm and comforting temperatures.

All mothers-to-be are grateful for an experience like this! Pregnancy is a phase in which the body gains a lot of tension and weight, with profound changes throughout the body – not all of them harmonious and peaceful. It is a time of hope and enlightenment, but also of some anxiety and fatigue. The benefits of water therapies for pregnant women have been recognized since ancient times. They bring a feeling of deep relaxation, in which body and mind disconnect from the outside and free themselves. The legs and arms lengthen, the head floats on a special pillow, the movements help to relax. Inside the belly, the baby will feel the flow of water and the mother’s well-being. It has been proven that massages during pregnancy are also beneficial in preventing postpartum depression or states of extreme fatigue. They will be a relief for cases of back pain, migraines and sleepless nights. The same applies to the postpartum phase

It is one of the most beautiful experiences in the water, watching a baby surrender to the warmth and comfort, the feeling of returning to the womb, lightness and total relaxation. Babies have a recent memory of non-gravity movements and this gives them immediate well-being. The sounds of the water are familiar, they are a home, a warmth, a memory. These sessions promote a more gradual and harmonious encounter with the outside world.

A newborn baby has a very recent memory of the comfort of warm water, the feeling of lightness and weightlessness, without external stimuli. The softness and warmth that these sessions provide will bring your baby great peace of mind, after the shock of coming out of the womb and facing a whole challenge of movement and gravity. There, with the therapist and one or both parents accompanying, it will be a time for them to start building their self-confidence, independence and healthy relationship with water. In addition to effortlessly strengthening the body, sessions for babies up to two years of age offer a great sense of freedom and connection between the intrauterine world and the outside world.

AQUATIC BODYWORK TECHNIQUES

First of therapies, mother of all others. Watsu derives from two words: water (water) and shiatsu (finger pressure). Muscle stretches, effortless push-ups, twists, a feeling of lightness and an enormous mental tranquility. The combination of these factors developed in an aquatic environment is due to the North American Harold Dull.
