During this tonifying (strengthening) therapy, you’ll lie comfortably wrapped in blankets with warm packs applied over your torso (upper body).The warmth stimulates blood flow and prepares your skin for the application of cool packs.Your body will respond by increasing blood flow to the internal organs of the chest and abdomen.Research indicates that the increase in circulation of the lymphatic and vascular systems is responsible for the cumulative benefits of a series of hydrotherapy sessions.
