Aquawellness is a relaxation technique carried out in the water, where we use breathing to release tension, relax the body and mind and focus on ourselves, in the here and now, i.e. meditation. It can be done in a swimming pool, or in the sea, in a spa, individually or in a group. It is ideal for people who suffer from any kind of aversion to the water, as it helps them to understand the survival mechanisms that are activated when they enter an environment that is not their usual one, namely water. Carried out in a controlled manner depending on each participant, it requires the use of a mask and tube.
In a second phase, it can be done with diving equipment, it is the course called Scuba Wellness.
The student body is the one who sets the pace of advancement. You can do it on an occasional basis or as a therapy to assimilate the different skills according to your personal needs.
