Experiencia

El aceite de magnesio es un subproducto derivado de la producción de sal en las salinas. Con una alta concentración de minerales, que contiene calcio, potasio, hierro, bromuro, sulfuros, etc. además de cloruro de sodio. Puede ser hasta diez veces más denso que el agua de mar. Ha sido registrado como un elemento curativo natural ya que el agua acumula presión sobre el cuerpo desde todas las direcciones y actúa de manera similar a la terapia de drenaje linfático. La flotabilidad también es fundamental en los baños, lo que facilita el movimiento de las extremidades afectadas y dañadas.

Los baños están destinados al tratamiento de dolores crónicos, enfermedades degenerativas y reumáticas del aparato locomotor, afecciones tras lesiones del aparato locomotor y con fines de relajación de enfermedades de la piel, como la psoriasis con complicaciones tardías.

Las terapias grupales se ofrecen en dos piscinas, donde el tiempo recomendado está limitado a un máximo de 30 minutos. Después de usar la piscina, se recomienda un descanso de al menos 30 minutos.
