Fangotherapy and
The practice of hydrotherapy
This video discusses the basics and practices of fangotherapy (mud therapy) and hydrotherapy (water therapy).
First, let's look at the differences between water and fango, and explain their respective thermal properties and effects on the body. Water quickly transfers heat, resulting in a rapid warming effect, while fango retains heat and penetrates the body slowly. This property is utilized for various purposes, including beauty treatments, rheumatism relief, sports conditioning, and relaxation.
We will also discuss the differences between hydrotherapy and fangotherapy, explaining the mechanisms of transdermal absorption for each and describing the most suitable treatment methods.
Furthermore, the book explains how to combine fangotherapy with massage, thermotherapy, and cryotherapy to make it more effective.
