Long before people went to the beach to get a tan and\nsunbathe, doctors already believed in the healing properties of the ocean to\nincrease blood circulation, and in the 18th century prescribed trips to the\nseashore or visits the so-called at that time bath hospitals, special clinics\nthat offered treatments using sea water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improves\nMental Health<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Going to the beach has always\nbeen very present in medicine and many health professionals recommend it to\nachieve health and well-being. Recent scientific studies indicate that it\nimproves mental and physical health by reducing stress. It seems that more blue spaces people see in\ntheir daily lives, the less distress and anxiety they experience. Both the sun\nand the waves combined work to completely relax the body, it gets rid of its\npains and soothes daily stress. Not only is serotonin released almost\nimmediately when you hit the beach, but the sound and sight of the ocean is\nsoothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Helps to\nsleep better<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another scientifically proven\nbenefit is that after a few hours on the beach you sleep better. For insomniacs\nlooking for a natural remedy, the beach is perfect as it helps alleviate three\nkey factors that inhibit sleep: high levels of stress and anxiety, lack of\nphysical fatigue, and hormonal imbalances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Improves Breathing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you get to the beach you breathe\neasier, an automatic response to the quality of the air, scientists explain.\nPeople with asthma or breathing difficulties find it much easier to breathe\nwhen they are on the beach than anywhere else. This is because the chest\nmuscles that surround the lungs not only relax when a person steps onto the\nbeach, but the air itself is loaded with negative ions that increase oxygen\nuptake, and can also help balance serotonin levels, impacting positively on stress levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Permanent\nSource of Vitamin D<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Absorbing the daily amount of\nvitamin D that the body needs is often difficult through food intake. Spending\njust ten minutes outside on the beach can allow a person to absorb their daily\ndose of vitamin D directly through the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fight\nInfections<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you have an open wound\nand it is exposed to salt water it causes pain, a sign that the water cleanses\nand disinfects it, as it has unique antibacterial and antifungal properties\nthat are excellent for external infections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The iodine in seawater is a fantastic immune system\nbooster that is highly antiseptic and is used in hospitals and surgeries on a\nregular basis as well as helping to improve the function of the thyroid gland and\nalso of the immune system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Promotes\nBeauty<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for the health and beauty\nof the skin, the sun and sea water have a very positive effect. The latter can\nhelp some conditions such as dermatitis, an allergic rash, while the sun, in\nmoderate amounts, improves some dermatological problems such as chronic\npsoriasis. Experts defend the exfoliating work of the sand, as well as the\ndetoxifying and antibacterial nature of the water. Once the sun opens your\npores, the salt water can enter and draw out toxins, removing blemishes, uneven\nskin, or excess oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reduces Inflammation\nand Pain<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another advantage of the sea\nis the reduction of inflammation and pain through water aerobics, which is the\neasiest activity for the elderly and people with joint pain, arthritis or who\nhave recently undergone surgery. This is because water offers great resistance\nwithout any impact and actually reduces the weight of a person submerged in\nwater by about ninety percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The beach offers endless opportunities for exercise.\nWalking, swimming, surfing, playing with paddles or rackets or even building\nsand castles with the children, there is never a shortage of activities to\nenjoy.
