The word spa is taken from the famous natural mineral aqua spring at Spa in Belgium and this word "Spa" has become used as a common noun to describe any place with a mineral spring. Hydro is a prefix meaning coming from or derived from water or the flow in water and one obvious example is "Hydroelectricity" electricity derived from Water. So the point of all this is to try and define the word Hydrospa and my own thinking is that is a spa effect derived form the movement or flow of water. Water is an amazing resource. With out we would not survive on the planet. A liquid that we can drink and sustain life but is a fluid capable of being solid when frozen and can be simply transported down a pipe or put in a Jug. Water is amazing stuff and is regularly used in physiotherapy to help recovery from injuries and to relieve muscle stiffness and aches by assisting in the reduction of lactic acid. Warm soothing water helps to open the blood vessels to naturally assist and improve blood circulation round the body. The increased circulation helps to bring nutrients and thereby helps the tissue and muscle groups around arthritic joints relax, and promotes the flow of endorphins in the body. Reflexology is known as the Treatment by massage to the hands and feet and this is based on the fact that there are reflexes in the feet and hands that correspond to various parts of the body. The massaging effect of the warm water helps to apply gentle pressure to the feet and hands increasing circulation and providing respite to specific joint and muscular functions. Hydrospa Hot tubs have a flow of water from a variety of massage Jets so that the combined mixing of air and warm water produces a nice Jet or stream of warm water that massages the body and limbs that in many ways reproduces the ancient practice of water massage therapy fand brings it firmly into the 21st Century. Since the beginning of time Man has naturally been drawn to the hot springs and Spa's such as at Spa in Belguim where the water naturally springs from the earth bubbling and often full of heat. Relaxing heat, muscle stimulation, and lighter-than-air buoyancy help to relieve physical burdens and brighten the spirits. Researchers have observed the healing effects of this type of therapy which I will call Hydrospa therapy. This Hydrospa therapy provides improved circulation, decreased joint pain, and acceleration of the body's natural healing processes. No scientific research is needed to appreciate these benefits: the relief and respite that comes from getting into pleasant soothing warm jet driven water. Stresses & Strains of modern life is released into the soothing warm waters and the added spring in ones step after a Hydrospa session is noticable. Lastly Aromatherapy is defined as the use of evaporating plant oils, including essential oils, for psychological and physical well-being. Aromatherapy scents are available in a wide variety and can have beneficial effects on the whole being. In conclusion there are many advantages to be gained by the regular use of Hot Tub and the Hydrospa Treatment that it provides
