Abstract
Thalassotherapy is a treatment that uses the natural gifts of the sea (climate, air, sea sand, algae, some species of sea fish, mother of pearl) and physical factors (hydrotherapy, heliotherapy, aerosol therapy, music therapy, kinesitherapy and others). It is mainly intended for people who are stressed, overtired and have sleep problems. Thalassotherapy is also used in the treatment of rheumatism, back pain, lung diseases, heart diseases and skin dermatoses, such as psoriasis or atopic dermatitis. These treatments are widely used in wellness centers as care and therapeutic treatments for problematic skin. In cosmetology, preparations of marine origin are also used in the form of masks, peeling creams intended for dry, oily, gray, mature or poorly nourished skin.
