  Water gush. Whether cold or warm: At the very latest since Kneipp, the water gush has been known as a therapeutic application. Warm (38 °C-40 °C): Warm gushes over arms and legs have an anticonvulsant effect on muscular tension and non-bleeding wounds. With colds, bronchitis, catarrhs, rheumatic illnesses and lumbago, water gushes over the upper body can alleviate the symptoms. |

Through the warm gushes, the local metabolism of the muscle tissue and organs is stimulated; and the increased blood circulation helps with the transport of waste products. Cold (< 20 °C): Besides the indurating effect, cold gushes over the legs contribute to the fading of swelling and alleviation of the heavy feeling of the legs with vein ailments. Through the coldness, the blood vessels contract, the connective tissue is strengthened and the transport of blood to the heart is stimulated. Water gushes should always go in the direction of the heart in order to abet the flow of blood back to the heart. |
