Japanese Water Therapy: Embrace it & Live a Better Life

Water therapies have been around since ancient times. They are popular in Japanese medicine as well as Ayurveda. Ever wondered why water therapies are so popular? Well the answer to that question lies within us. We are 60-70% water. So when there is an imbalance in the amount of water we have in our bodies, there are bound to be health issues.

I have personally experienced the great benefits of water therapy treatment. Let us understand water therapy in some more detail. If you don't believe what I am saying, just try the water therapy treatment and then, see if it helps you.

What is water therapy?
In Japanese water therapy, before you brush your teeth every morning, drink about 5-6 glasses (~ 1.5 litres)of water. Apart from this, you should not be consuming anything, for at least 45 minutes before and after drinking this water. So drink 1.5 litres of water, brush your teeth and then wait for 45 minutes before eating/drinking anything.

The first time I heard that I need to drink THAT much water, before brushing my teeth for this 'water therapy' to take effect, I went, "Ewwww"!

If you are having similar feelings, or, if you are on the older side and can't drink so much water in one go, increase your water consumption gradually. In a few days, you will be able to follow the rules of water therapy treatment. Another thing you could try while following the water therapy treatment, is that you could initially drink 2-3 glasses of water. Then drink the remaining glasses of water, after a break.

There are some other water therapies like- warm water therapy and hydrotherapy. But let's talk about those water therapies some other time.

Which diseases can be combated using water therapy treatment?
Japanese water therapy helps fight several diseases that include-
* Body pain
* Acne
* Obesity
* Kidney diseases
* Vomiting
* Diarrhoea
* Piles
* Diabetes
* Constipation
* Menstrual Disorders

Personal benefits of Japanese water therapy (that I have noticed)
1- My skin feels much healthier, and has a natural glow.
2- My eyes feel much better.
3- I used to have head aches earlier, but that seems to have reduced after I went on Japanese water therapy.

So my suggestion to you is, knowing what you know, try Japanese water therapy. See if it helps you. If not, water therapies will certainly not do you any harm
