We all know nothing is quite so soothing and relaxing as a leisurely soak in a warm bath. Adding lavender infused Epsom bath salts enhances the experience. Through the ages therapeutic waters have been hailed for their healing virtues. Mineral rich waters have been used to treat and heal many ailments.  Balneotherapy, or the therapeutic use of water, is a safe and time-tested spa treatment.

In Canada we have the opportunity to experience wonderful natural springs. These locations offer spa-goers the chance to soak in minerals from the depths of the earth.

The Hydrofusion Capsule at Au Natural Spa in Ottowa offers treatments in an innovative body capsule.
