Homeopathy
Based on the principle that “like cures like”, patients are treated with natural substances in minute quantities which cause symptoms similar to those of the disease. Thus, the body’s own vital force is stimulated to cure itself.

Hydrotherapy
A long time staple in European spas, this relaxing and detoxifying therapy includes underwater jet massage, showers, jet sprays and mineral baths.

Iridology
By using special optical equipment, this science allows a doctor or practitioner to determine, from the markings or signs in the iris of the eye, the condition of various organs in the body.

Lymphatic Drainage
A very gentle, specialized rhythmic technique that stimulates the lymphatic system, thereby helping the body to detoxify and eliminate waste.

Mud/peat baths
A highly mineralized mud, often mixed with oil or water, is applied to the body as a heat pack to sooth muscles and stimulate circulation. Moor and peat baths provide similar benefits, and are particularly rich in organic matter, proteins, vitamins and trace elements.

Reflexology
A specialized Chinese-based massage of the feet and hands which includes pressure points to areas said to correspond with organs and tissues throughout the body. Treats a wide range of stress-related illnesses, and ailments.

Reiki
An ancient Tibetan healing system that uses light hand placements on the body to channel healing- energies to the recipient. Treats emotional distress, chronic and acute physical problems, as well as improves spiritual focus and clarity.

Salt Glow
A mixture of salt, oils and water is used to vigorously scrub the body to remove dead skin, clean pores and stimulate circulation.
