What Is Constitutional Hydrotherapy?
Constitutional hydrotherapy is a gentle yet deeply effective therapy that uses alternating hot and cold towel applications, paired with low-voltage electrical stimulation, to stimulate the nervous, immune, and circulatory systems. Rooted in traditional naturopathic medicine, this treatment improves microcirculation, promotes lymphatic flow, and helps the body move from a “fight-or-flight” state into a healing “rest-and-digest” state.
At EmpowerMed Clinic, we use constitutional hydrotherapy as both a standalone treatment and a powerful adjunct to support other healing protocols.

What Happens During a Constitutional Hydrotherapy Session?
Your session will take place in a calm, comfortable room where you’ll remain warmly covered on a massage table. Each session typically lasts 45-60 minutes and includes:
Hot and cold towel applications over the chest, abdomen, and back
Mild electrical stimulation during cold phases to enhance circulation and cellular health
Nervous system balancing as your body adapts to temperature changes
Targeting of reflex zones to stimulate digestive and endocrine function
Most clients describe the treatment as soothing, grounding, and surprisingly energizing. A series of sessions is often recommended for best results.
