Marine product body wraps are an ancestral treatment drawing their origins from the practices of coastal peoples. The Celts of Brittany already used seaweed poultices to treat pain and revitalise the body. In ancient Egypt, Cleopatra had herself coated in Dead Sea mud to preserve her youthful skin. In Japan, seaweed baths (algotherapy) have been part of the thermal tradition for centuries. It was in France, from the 1960s onwards, that algotherapy was integrated into thalassotherapy protocols: iodine-rich laminaria wraps, detoxifying fucus poultices, remineralising marine mud. Today, marine research has identified over 200 active ingredients in Breton seaweed, making marine body wraps both a traditional and scientifically grounded treatment.
