Healthy Living2018 Wellness Resolutions #7 – Hydrotherapy

January 2, 2018Craig Oliver

“When looking at wellness, as a whole, spas are the perfect place to really relieve stress,” says Lisa Miles, Spa Director of Glacial Waters Spa located at Grand View Lodge Spa & Golf Resort in central Minnesota.

“Although the Vichy Shower can be used as a compliment service to other treatments, many guests prefer one of the stand-alone services we have specially created,” says Miles. A Vichy treatment uses multiple shower heads and adjusts the pressure at desired positions on the guest while they lay face down on a specially designed wet table allowing water to drain away from the body. “The treatment is designed to help lymphatic circulation which helps the immune system. It also helps simulate responses from the nervous system which improves blood flow and reduces a number of stress hormones produced,” says Miles. “It is a very popular service for our guests.”
