About the Book

The breeze, the waves, the sand, the salty waters…Marine Therapy always has been around us. The Romans adored Neptune as the god of the seas, and Rene Quinton, a French researcher, described the healing properties of seawater. Ocean water benefits are used today as a new modality of treatments in spas, salons, and medical clinics using integrative medicine around the world. Dr. Soto reveals to us, in very simple words, the secrets of the healing seas and ways to better understand the uses of ocean water as a cosmetic and therapeutic solution. Because we are the ocean, the book starts with a historical review of our human connections with the sea. The pages are beautifully illustrated with images of monuments, historical art pieces, manuscripts, beaches, and portions of the world’s best literature revering the the ocean as “the amniotic fluid of mankind.” Dr. Soto not only narrates with vivid passion his discoveries about all the potential and present uses of seawater, but he also gives us unique pictorial evidence, including photographs never published before. While sailing through the pages, you will find unique methods of how to improve your skin with miraculous drops of Sea-Mar 100% purified ocean water. The easy-to-read text is an invaluable tool for those in the spa industry and the medical profession. The book closes with a useful contact list of centers around the world offering Thalassotherapy (marine therapy using seawater). It is an excellent text that may last for generations and a key to open the doors to new discoveries. This book explains why you should “ocean your skin.” Just sea it.
