THE BENEFITS

The alternation between cold and warm water stimulates blood circulation throughout the body, aiding in the removal of metabolic waste products from muscles and accelerating the healing process.

The application of cold water helps to decrease inflammation and swelling, which are common after intense physical activity. This is then followed with warm water to promote relaxation and reduces muscle stiffness.

Hot water – Enhances muscle elasticity and joint flexibility, making it easier to perform stretching and mobility exercises. Cold water – Helps to maintain muscle tone and prevent over-relaxation that could lead to joint instability.

Mental relaxation – The calming effect of water therapy, combined with the natural outdoor setting of Alfrespa, helps reduce mental stress and promotes a sense of well-being. Physical Relief – The reduction in muscle tension and soreness contributes to an overall feeling of relaxation.

Alfrespa’s Kneipp Therapy is perfect to use after training sessions to speed up recovery, reduce muscle soreness, and enhance relaxation.

Apply the alternating water treatments to manage minor injuries and prevent inflammation from becoming a chronic issue.

Incorporate warm water treatments to loosen muscles and improve flexibility before competitions, followed by cold water exposure to boost circulation and mental alertness.
