"The Healing Power of the Ocean: Insights from Doctors"

Doctors explain that the feeling of physical and mental well-being near the ocean is supported by thalassotherapy, the use of salt water for healing. Salt water contains minerals and trace elements that promote relaxation, reduce inflammation, and support skin health. Being near the ocean, also known as the "blue space effect," has been linked to reduced stress levels and improved mental well-being. Engaging in activities like swimming or walking on the beach further enhances the benefits by improving cardiovascular health and releasing endorphins. Similar benefits can be obtained from freshwater lakes, rivers, or pools. Both saltwater and freshwater environments offer unique benefits for physical and mental well-being, contributing to a healthier and happier lifestyle.
