A lot of time has passed since the Roman Empire, but thermal waters and hydrotherapy have not lost their popularity at all, quite the opposite. Since legionnaires stationed near the town of Spa in today's Belgium for the first time tasted the benefits flowing (literally) from the springs of this spa town, water therapies have expanded to include quite a large portfolio. Since it would probably take a bloated book to describe all the methods, this article will focus on hydro massage and cold water therapy.

The word "SPA" has been used for several decades as a synonym for a health resort or hotel offering a wide range of services that improve our health and well-being through massages, hydrotherapy, aromatherapy and many more. In the past, the use of this name was associated with the place of occurrence of thermal waters or medicinal substances (such as sulfur mud, peloid), but nowadays, the location does not play such a role anymore and, in principle, we can organize a SPA even in our own home.

Massage is usually associated with a pleasant treatment, carried out by a masseur or physiotherapist in a warm office, and its purpose is to heal or simply relax. Hydromassage is distinguished by the fact that our masseur is hydrogen and oxygen in the proportion 2: 1, i.e. water, but first you need to give it strength. The water movement is forced by pumps located in the technical room or, in the case of the LEPSOD Compact series, in a small technical chamber hidden in the pool wall. Of course, for maximum comfort, the whole thing is perfectly muted, so nothing disturbs the moments of relaxation. In addition, this way you reduce the time and costs associated with building a separate room for technology. But let's get back to the hydromassage..

In the case of cold water therapy, here many certainly come to mind "sea, brrrr ...". Yes, not everyone associates ice-cold water with pleasure and probably many will choose warm water anyway, but if you want to improve the functioning of the nervous system, cardiovascular system, metabolism and a young appearance, maybe cryotherapy is for you.

The less visible advantages include, for example, a positive effect on the nervous system - pouring cold water first engages the sympathetic nervous system, but soon the parasympathetic nervous system is activated, and such alternating action of both of them fantastically balances the entire nervous system. Improving the circulation and efficiency of the veins is another great asset. Two weeks of cold baths are enough to improve the muscles around the veins and relieve the heart. The most interesting thing is the effect on the endocrine system - a cold morning bath increases the production of endorphins and testosterone, so you can give up coffee for breakfast for good.

A little fantasy is enough, and a private relaxation zone and sanatorium for our family is within easy reach. What's more, we don't necessarily need a lot of space to arrange such amenities. Constructors from the LEPSOD company come to the rescue here, who will design your dream pool or jacuzzi to meet your requirements and enable its final installation in its final location. So if you decide to choose health, also choose a healthy and safe material such as stainless steel.
