Discover the health benefits of seawater

Can you remember what it feels like when your skin comes into contact with seawater? It’s something between relaxing, healthy and revitalizing, isn’t it? Our body gets sincere with ourselves in those moments of sand, sea water, beach, and tells us how much well-being all that environment brings.

This perception of full well-being is confirmed by medical studies that already announced to us the great amount of benefits that seawater has for our health.

There is a first element of attraction with that which resembles us, and that is that the water of the sea contains a mineral composition very similar to the human corporal blood plasma. By linking our body with an essence similar to itself, it enters a state of relaxation and constant cell renewal. In fact, the minerals in seawater are an excellent hypertonic restorative drink, especially for those who sport.

If we refer to its contribution to human health, we must enumerate its multiple functions for the recovery of respiratory diseases, in which its composition helps to drain mucus, and skin diseases, to which iodine contributes as an essential component for cell renewal. In addition, seawater has natural exfoliating properties with which it removes impurities and dead skin, which makes our skin softer, while receiving stimulating massages thanks to the swaying of the waves.

A walk on the sand of the beach, on the wet part, which practically touches the water, brings us much more well-being than any yoga class. The balance between the sea breeze (charged with negative ions that also stimulate cell renewal), the mineral properties of seawater, and the massage of wet sand to the soles of the feet, produces an authentic cleansing of toxins. In the day to day, without realizing it, we accumulate them and it is very important to find those moments of liberation in which it seems that we can breathe better next to the sea water.
In addition, and last but not least, these relaxing walks on the beach activate to a great extent our muscles of the lower extremities providing a great circulatory well-being to our body.

Being in contact with seawater offers so many benefits that we should not think twice before deciding to visit beach destinations. Your body and also your mind will appreciate it, because you will always come back renewed and activated from a holiday near the sea, to be able to face the greatest challenges that await you.
