Slimming treatments in thalassotherapy inherit a long tradition of body care aimed at refining the silhouette. As early as Roman Antiquity, cold thermal baths were recommended for firming the flesh. In the 19th century, Dr Sigmund Winternitz in Vienna codified slimming hydrotherapy through variable-pressure water jets. The modern revolution began in 1970 when Louis Paul Guitay invented mechanical palpate-rolling, patented as LPG endermology — a technique that would become the worldwide reference for cellulite treatment. Maderotherapy, born in Colombia in the 1990s, uses sculpted wooden tools for powerful manual drainage. Vodder-type lymphatic drainage, codified in 1936 by Dr Emil Vodder in Denmark, remains the reference technique for tissue decongestion. In thalassotherapy, these technologies are enriched with draining marine active ingredients — fucus algae, thermal mud, mineral salts — which potentiate the slimming effect through transcutaneous absorption.
