WATSU® therapy
WATSU®
Watsu® is a gentle and liberating form of body therapy in a pleasant aquatic environment. It combines elements of shiatsu, massage, joint relaxation, muscle stretching and dance. The magic of this therapy lies in the mutual transfer of energy between the recipient (client) and the therapist. The energizing collaboration based on mutual trust, gentle and flowing movements has long-lasting beneficial effects on the physical as well as the psychological well-being of the person.
How the therapy takes place
The client is flooded with water during Watsu® therapy. With the support of the floats and the therapist's hands, the client lies calmly on the water surface. Moments of stillness alternate with rhythmic movements. The body is liberated in ways that cannot be done on dry land. The pleasant temperature of the water relaxes the muscles and strengthens the back. Thanks to the weightless state and the buoyancy of the water, the spine, joints and muscles can be freely manipulated in a unique way. Gentle, yet deep stretching causes the release of muscle and joint tension, deepens and improves breathing, gives the body deep relaxation and freedom from stress. Watsu® therapy is suitable for all ages - from the youngest children to seniors.
