THE HISTORY OF HYDROTHERAPY

The Founder

Born in 1821, the son of a poor weaver in the Bavarian region of Germany, Sebastien Kneipp's ambition was to join the priesthood. During his theological studies he was taken ill with pulmonary tuberculosis, at that time a fatal disease. By chance, a small book on hydrotherapy, authored in 1734 by Dr. Hahn, found his way into his hands, which motivated him to take short full-immersion dips in the icy waters of Danube river. The treatment enabled him to stimulate his physical stamina, or immune system, so much so that his tuberculosis went into remission and he was able to complete his studies.

Dr Sebastian Kneipp (Stephansried, Germany, May 17, 1821 - June 17, 1897 in Wörishofen, Germany) was one of the founders of the Naturopathic medicine movement. He is most commonly associated with the "Kneipp Cure" form of hydrotherapy, a system of healing involving the application of water through various methods, temperatures and pressures. In Norway he is mostly known for his bread recipe, Kneipp Bread.

Although most commonly associated with one area of Naturopathic medicine, Kneipp was the proponent of an entire system of healing, which rested on five main tenets:

  • Hydrotherapy
  • Herbalism - The use of botanical medicines
  • Exercise
  • Nutrition - A wholesome diet of whole grains, fruits & vegetables with limited meat
  • Spirituality - Kneipp believed that a healthy mind begot a healthy person

During his time in Bad Wörishofen, Kneipp was able to counsel many people. Tens of thousands came from all over the world to receive his healing advice. He was the author of the books "My Water Cure", "Thus Shalt Thou Live", and "My Will".

For centuries man has known of the healing power of hydrotherapy. Before the modern portable spa, people have enjoyed the relief of pain and tension offered by natural hot springs.

The Mechanics of Hydrotherapy

When submerged in water, your body is about 1/10 its normal weight. Buoyancy is the key element of relaxation and stress relief. It helps overcome the effects of gravity and relieves stress on the joint.

In Europe, specially built basins along roads, in the forest, on hiking trails and in spa sanatoriums are used to collect cold water from streams or rivers.


If you have hot swollen or sweaty feet after hikes, stepping high (stork walking) through the basin until the cold water almost hurts is a wonderful, refreshing experience. Naturally, this can be done in rivers, streams or lakes, or in the bathtub! Bladder and prostate problems are contra indications.

We have all seen hot tubs and whirlpools in recreational centers, on cruise ships, beside swimming pools or even in some homes. Sometimes you will see a warning: "Do not use pool longer than 10 minutes". Hardly anybody follows this advice - some people sit for an hour in the very hot water. This is strongly discouraged as it removes the natural oils from the skin, and the blood pressure might sink to a dangerously low level and fainting or even a stroke could result.

SG2000

Produced by high frequency accelerant built in the machine, the SG2000 emits a constant output of ozone at 0.05 ppm (German FDA standard), effectively sterilizing, sanitizing and deodorizing all substance that it comes in contact with. It also enhances the vitality of cells, remove cuticle, smoothens and whitens skin. Most importantly the disinfecting ability of ozone is more than 3,000 times more germicidal than chlorine.

The machine generates an air output of 46 liters per sec. charged with negative ions, (measured at 5000 negative ions per cubic centimeter), and freshens the air (air quality equivalent better than that of forest bath).

Using advanced technology, PU and fine bio-ceramic fiber are blended and integrated into one finished bath mat. It magnetizes water and at the same time softens water, is friendly to the skin & at the same time enhances blood circulation.

The explosions of more than a million strong bubbles colliding with each other every second emits natural occurring ultrasonic waves, and generate 10,000-15,000 microtremors energy per sec.

What is Hydrotherapy?

Hydrotherapy is the use of water to revitalize, maintain, and restore health. Hydrotherapy treatments include saunas, steam baths, foot baths, sitz baths, and the application of cold and hot water compresses.

Father Sebastian Kneipp, a 19th century Bavarian monk, is said to be the father of hydrotherapy. Kneipp believed that disease could be cured by using water to eliminate waste from the body. Hydrotherapy is popular in Europe and Asia, where people "take the waters" at hot springs and mineral springs. In North America, it is often recommended as self-care by naturopathic doctors.

There is a physiological basis to hydrotherapy. Cold is stimulating, and it causes superficial blood vessels to constrict, shunting the blood to internal organs. Hot water is relaxing, causes blood vessels to dilate, and removes wastes from body tissues. Alternating hot can cold water also improves elimination, decreases inflammation, and stimulates circulation.
