Anyone can experience a hydrotherapy treatment in Nature by swimming in the ocean, bathing in a hot springs or sitting under a tropical waterfall. These experiences are a combination of the natural environment including the sun, earth, clouds, air, plants,  trees and water in different natural forms.  These experiences can be profoundly healing, balancing, purifying and spiritual.  Natural healing hydrotherapy treatments in Nature create a profound connection with Nature.

The true origin of hydrotherapy is Nature itself.  It is the natural properties of water that make it healing.  It is the natural properties of water that allow it to be 60% of our bodies.  Various healing traditions have created different hydrotherapy treatments & philosophies, but Nature creates the essential nature of water. And we can discover the nature of water from our own experience in Nature at different natural locations. 

It is be possible for the healing, purifying, balancing, mystical qualities of water to be an essential part of every spa menu in the form of hydrotherapy.  The healing benefits of these hydrotherapy treatments can be enhanced by the use of natural products such as essential oils, healing muds & clays, herbs, minerals, and oils.  Also, these treatments are given by trained therapists with natural healing skills.  The combination of hydrotherapy, natural products, trained healers and proper equipment, gives a spa or wellness center the ability to create powerful, transforming healing treatments. Water is an essential part of life, an essential part of wellness, healing and spiritual consciousness and an essential part of the complete spa experience.

I have taken the following photos of water in different natural settings during visits to these location in my own journey to learn more about water, Nature and healing.  These experiences have been an inspiration for creating hydrotherapy education, treatments and equipment.
