Sareena - Founder of Blossom Day Spa & Academy
"Throughout my whole career, I was met with many trials in my personal life which I can only say now, has made me much stronger as an individual, as a woman and as a mother. Launching the Day Spa was one of my goals, a dream which I thought I would never be able to achieve. From being homeless, a single parent of my two amazing children and being an abuse survivor, my confidence and self-esteem was depleted, I found myself doubting whether I was good enough to make this happen. But it was all by the grace of GOD that I kept myself going, studying, taking small steps towards my goal. I am so proud to have come out the end of the tunnel, to a light as bright as Blossom Day Spa. It was my love for GOD, my love for my children and my love for the wellness industry that allowed me to bring together Spa and Ocean wellness to you all and I am so honoured to teach and share my knowledge and experience with everyone."
Thalassotherapy did you know...
In the 18th century, British Physician Doctor Richard Russel, introduced Thalassotherapy in Brighton, he advised his patients to bathe in and drink seawater as part of their prescription for healing. Dr Russel went on to write a dissertation to where he expressed his theories regarding the use of Sea water to heal Glandular Disease, the dissertation was named, ‘Dissertation on the Use of Sea Water in the Affections of the Glands’. This book was the first of its kind as this made a link between seawater being used to improve health and wellness.
A French Biologist & Physiologist called René Quinton had a passion in the study of ‘the origins of life’ his theories were based upon seawater being the matrix of life. He undertook research and experiments and discovered that seawater has a similar chemical composition as blood plasma. Overall Quinton came to the conclusion that seawater a vital source to all living beings with the possibility of healing and curing alignments/ ill health / disease. In 1904, Quinton wrote his findings and theories in a book called ‘L’eau de mer, milieu organique.’
As you can see throughout the years there have been many studies conducted which highlight the Oceans mineral and trace-mineral content, further research and studies show how this can benefit overall wellness.
Please note Thalassotherapy should not be use as a substitute for medicine, always seek and follow medical advice from your GP.
