Thalassotherapy Benefits
How it works: Thalassotherapy offers an effective and natural way to increase blood circulation and thereby reduce inflammation by moving toxins out quickly into the lymphatic system.

Essential minerals, found in seaweeds at 10-20X the concentrations of land-based vegetation, including iron, magnesium, sodium, potassium, iodine, phosphorus and calcium are readily absorbed directly through the skin into the bloodstream without digestion. Since the chemical make-up of seawater & seaweeds is so similar to that of our own blood plasma, these essential trace minerals help the body to assimilate the large concentrations of vitamins, amino acids, & polysaccharide sugars found in seaweed thereby to balancing our own interior ocean helping to maintain a healthy alkaline pH. Not only is there increased in blood circulation and reduced inflammation, but also has beneficial effects upon the pores of the skin such as firming, toning and moisturizing. Thalassotherapy also helps to detoxify by increasing lymphatic drainage and bind to heavy metal toxins like cadmium, mercury and lead and radioactive materials including Strontium-90.
