It is then harnessed via drilling holes at a nearby geothermal power plant, Svartsengi, to create electricity and hot water for nearby communities. The Blue Lagoon was originally an accidental by-product of this process.<img style="margin: 5px; border: 1px solid #000000; float: left;" src="https://www.luxurywellnesstravel.com/images/resize_Blue_Lagoon.jpg" alt="Blue Lagoon" /></p>
<p>The Blue Lagoon was once just a pool that formed from the waste water of Svartsengi. In 1981 people started bathing in the waters as they realized its healing powers for treating skin conditions like Psoriasis. Then in 1992, The Blue Lagoon Company was built and opened a public bathing facility.</p>
<p> The waters of the Blue Lagoon are deemed with healing qualities. On its way to the surface, the water picks up silica and minerals, before emerging at a soothing 38 degree Celsius. Perfect for a relaxing and re-energising bathe. The act of bathing in water for its healing qualities in order to treat disease is known as Balneotherapy. This type of therapy is used to treat arthritis, skin conditions and fibromyalgia.</p>

A Recipe to Health and Healing: 2 Parts Gratitude 1 Part Love2014-09-09T18:59:24+00:002014-09-09T18:59:24+00:00https://luxurywellnesstravel.com/water/38-a-recipe-to-health-and-healing-2-parts-gratitude-1-part-loveJessica Renshawjessica@renshawtravel.com<p><img style="margin: 5px; border: 1px solid #000000; float: left;" src="https://www.luxurywellnesstravel.com/images/Emoto.jpg" alt="Emoto water crystals" />Once of my favourite books is “The Hidden Messages in Water” by Masaru Emoto. This book bosts research that can transform our health and I highly recommend it. Using high speed photography Dr. Emoto takes pictures of flash frozen water crystals after they have been exposed to words, pictures and music. Words like gratitude and love form beautiful water crystals and have the power to change the structure of water. Knowing that the human body is made up mostly of water I really start to understand how our words and thoughts influence our health both physically and mentally.</p>
