Have you ever wondered why most people choose sunny sea side places, just like Skiathos island, for their summer vacation?
According to scientists seawater is believed to have beneficial effects upon our mood and health.
Among several benefits, swimming in seawater can help increase your immune system function, improve circulation, promote overall well-being and hydrate your skin.
Research shows that the sound of waves alters wave patterns in the brain lulling you into a deeply relaxed state. Relaxing in this way can help rejuvenate the mind and body.
Cool seawater calms down overwrought nerves while warm seawater, during summer, improves the circulation and relaxes muscles.
I guess that’s why they say that “happiness comes in salty water” 🙂
