The benefits of exercise while laying in a tub.
There is a new, no side-effect treatment of choice for deep relaxation,
easy exercise, and slimming.
It involves perspiration in a deep, water-filled hydrotherapy tub, followed by rehydration with electron-rich, alkaline water that fights the negative effects of our modern diet.
According to Michael Grady, developer of the Body Flush at his Davenport-based Atlantispa health spa, the service has especially caught on with people with aches and pains, MMA fighters, and women who want to lose weight.
"The Body Flush is based on the understanding that over-acidity in the body causes health problems, so the concept is based on detoxifying from this over-acidity, and then to alkalinize. You see, some researchers have found that people who have diabetes, obesity, and even arthritis, have acidic bodies. The Body Flush helps reduce acidity in the body.
The Body Flush takes place in a private hydrotherapy room fitted with a deep tub and a machine that generates ozone and ultrasonic bubbles, and combines them with far-infrared light – which helps heal the body. All of these technologies are contained in one unit: our proprietary hydrotherapy machine, the Atlantispa SG-2000.
The multiple benefits of the 15 minute spa include body detox, 300 calories burned, skin beautification and the toxin-clearing benefits of a one-hour professional massage. Amazingly, to your body, it’s like you’ve just taken a two-mile jog – in a tub! There's a lot of sweating going on in there, and it's all very hygienic – we meet the standards set by the Iowa Department of Health.” Grady stated.
The body flush is completed after the hydrotherapy session by rehydrating with about a liter of specially-made and purified, electron-rich, ionized alkaline water.
"The liter of 9.5 pH alkaline water replaces about the same amount of sweat from the hydrotherapy session. This type of fluid flush is just as important as changing the oil in one's car or replacing a portion of water in a fish tank – this helps to rejuvenate the body and keep it well-maintained so your body remains healthy and lasts longer.
For people, we see not only health, strength and recovery benefits with this flush but also aesthetic beautification, longevity and a lifestyle change towards better body maintenance", Grady said.
Grady's goal is to eventually franchise the Body Flush service in a new health spa concept which would include a number of other natural treatments.
"With greater awareness of preventative maintenance using effective, affordable, no-side-effect natural treatments, and better hygiene – both inside and out - our signature Body Flush treatment is right where tanning was 45 years ago, when there were no tanning salons. Now there are over 30,000 tanning salons in the US alone", he said.
The Atlantispa Body Flush costs $22.50 and includes 100% Essential Bath Oil aromatherapy. The spa is located at 235 W 35th St, Davenport, IA, above Nick Tarpein Martial Arts. For appointments or more information, call 563-445-7331.
