Watsu (Hydrotherapy)

45 mins: 2,800 THB
Watsu (Water Shiatsu) is a gentle form of aquatic body therapy performed in warm water (35 °C). It combines elements of massage, joint mobilization, shiatsu, and muscle stretching. The relative weightlessness created by the supporting water takes the pressure off the vertebrae, allowing the spine to move in different ways to when stretching on land. Gentle, gradual twists and pulls by the therapist relieve the rigidity in the spine to help alleviate pressure on the spinal nerves. The effects include a very gentle yet deep stretching, and a release of muscular and joint restrictions, along with a state of deep relaxation which encourages the release of stress and tensions. Watsu improves mobility and flexibility and has been shown to be beneficial in chronic pain syndromes.
