It may be time to treat your body to a de-stressing treatment using the Earth\u2019s most precious resource \u2013 water.<\/p>\n<p>Hydrotherapy has long been a method used to restore health and is a great option for relaxing on a weekend getaway, before your wedding day or perhaps whilst on honeymoon.<\/p>\n<p>The process of hydrotherapy comes in the form of a sauna, steam bath, sitz bath or jacuzzi and is said to have originated from a 19th-century Bavarian monk, Sebastian Kneipp, who believed disease could be cured by water to eliminate waste from one\u2019s body as the water is expelled in cold and hot compresses. The cold water causes blood vessels to constrict and the hot water causes blood vessels to dilate, thus removing waste from tissues in the body.<\/p>\n<p>Granny Mouse Spa, managed by Camelot Spa, in the KZN Midlands offers Hydrotherapy, amongst other treatments. They offer a Hydrotherapy treatment which includes the CSpa Shimmer Milk Bath.<\/p>\n<p>The CSpa Shimmer Milk Bath treatment is rich in vitamins and is offered for both individuals as a single treatment or alternatively for couples who want to relax and reap the healing benefits together. Each treatment is 30 minutes and uses powerful jets of water to target and relieve muscular tension, joint pain, and arthritic conditions as well as provide stress relief by energising and rejuvenating body tissue.<\/p>\n<p>Not only does Granny Mouse Spa offer special treatments like the Hydrotherapy, they also offer a welcome treatment for one\u2019s tired, achy feet.

It is believed that the healing properties of hydrotherapy is based on the thermal effects; making use of your body\u2019s reaction to the stimulation of hot and cold combined with the exertion of the water onto the body that in turn carry the message through to the nerves and thus throughout the body.
