One can find springs in the craters of volcanoes, in streams and in natural swimming-pools\u2026 There is thermal water everywhere, for you to take a bath. With this scenario, it\u2019s not difficult to understand why, in Iceland, spas and thermalism are part of the nation\u2019s DNA. Did you know that the Icelandic word <em>Laugardagur <\/em>(Saturday) means \u201cthe swimming-pool day\u201d?<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"><span style=\"color: #36454f; font-size: 22px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.41; margin-bottom: 25px;\"><span lang=\"es-ES\">Contrasts of temperature<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p>As we have already mentioned, in Iceland you will find endless <em>Heitur pottur<\/em> (literally, \u2018hot pans\u2019) with temperatures of between 37\u00ba and 43\u00ba, in which people meet to enjoy the warm water and to chat for a while. Who cares if it\u2019s snowing or cold out of the water?<\/p>\n<p>In many of the country\u2019s swimming-pools you will also find large tubs or cold-water pools (with water temperatures of between 8\u00ba and 10\u00ba), where you can give your body a healthy contrast of temperature.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"><span style=\"color: #36454f; font-size: 22px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.41; margin-bottom: 25px;\"><span lang=\"es-ES\">The Icelandic bath at Caldea<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p>Taking inspiration from the natural model of Iceland, at Thermoludic we have a replica of an iceberg, two baths of different temperatures and a jet of thermal water. Everything is ready for you to enjoy the properties of our thermal waters, while your body feels the sensations of the different states of the water.<\/p>\n<p>This bath is the ideal complement to a sauna, because on coming out of the dry heat it is advisable to go through a cold area in order to tone up the body. Rub your whole body with ice (0\u00ba) from our iceberg, then sit down on a seat which helps to firm up legs and hips while you keep your feet in cold water (15\u00ba). After this first contrast, we recommend that you go through the bath with warmer water (about 20\u00ba) and finish by sitting on a bench to rest.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"><span style=\"color: #36454f; font-size: 22px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.41; margin-bottom: 25px;\"><span lang=\"es-ES\">The benefits of an Icelandic bath<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p>Among the main benefits of an Icelandic bath are improved blood circulation, a firming effect on the body and an immediate relief from stress.<\/p>\n<p>Our thermal waters, rich in sodium and sulphates, have analgesic, healing, decongestant and anti-allergic properties. In addition, at Caldea these therapeutic effects can be combined with a leisure experience which provides you with an unequalled feeling of well-being.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Take advantage of the month of January and begin the year by renewing yourself inside and outside.
