The use of water for therapeutic means dates back to antique tribes that lived in caverns. They observed how animals, when sick or injured, go to hot or mineral water springs to heal. On the XX century, the social circumstances and the scientific discoveries led to a better understanding of the benefits of hydrotherapy. Today, the accelerated rhythm of modern civilizations, and the stress this brings about, awakened a special interest for thermal therapies
Ecuador, home to several active volcanoes, has extraordinary thermal waters that naturally sprout from hot springs, with high temperatures and rich in minerals. As an energetic center in the middle of the world, Ecuador has also become a special site for the development of modern and sophisticated SPAS
