AQUATIC THERAPIES

Water is not only an element; it is a space where body, mind, and memory meet.

Water has always been a source of healing, renewal, and inner balance.
In warm water, the body naturally relaxes, breathing slows, and the nervous system shifts toward a deeper state of calm.
‍
Aquatic therapies invite you into a space of weightlessness where the body can release tension, restore mobility, and reconnect with a more natural state of balance. Through gentle movements, flotation, breath awareness, and guided presence, these sessions support both physical relaxation and emotional release.
‍
Water — the source of life — has been used for purification, healing, and inner transformation for thousands of years. In this unique environment, gravity disappears and the body is free to unwind deeply.
‍
Each experience is safely guided by Alice Mazo, certified aquatic therapist, ensuring attentive presence, safety, and care throughout the session.
Sessions are adapted to each individual, welcoming all ages and physical conditions.
‍
Aquatic therapies help regulate stress, relieve physical and emotional tension, and restore natural body mobility while inviting a profound sense of inner calm.

Janzu

A water-based movement therapy at the surface of the water with brief immersions, where the experience of letting go deepens and the body’s mobility is greatly improved.

Symbolic of a rebirth into a more peaceful dimension of oneself.
Janzu is a guided aquatic bodywork practice focused on deep relaxation, emotional release, and mindful connection with the body through water.
The session begins with a short introduction to create a safe and comfortable atmosphere. Together we enter the warm water and begin with gentle walking, breathing techniques, and light stretching to help the body settle and relax.
Once ready, the Janzu practice begins. While you float supported on the water, the therapist guides you through a continuous sequence of slow and fluid movements — gentle stretches, rhythmic motions, soft massage, and brief immersions.
In water, gravity disappears. Muscles release tension, breathing becomes natural, and the nervous system gradually enters a deep state of calm.
Many participants describe the experience as deeply nurturing, grounding, and peaceful — sometimes even as a symbolic rebirth.
No prior experience is needed.
You simply float, breathe, and allow the water and guided movements to do the work.

aquarelax

A guided meditation experience in warm water, floating in stillness with the head supported by a cushion and floats under the legs.

An immersive moment of weightlessness that invites deep relaxation, inner awareness, and the gentle release of mental and physical tension.
During this session, you float comfortably on the water while being gently supported. With eyes closed, you are invited into a guided meditative state where the body naturally softens and the mind quiets.
The sensation of weightlessness, combined with the warmth of the water, helps calm the nervous system and restore inner balance.
This experience is particularly effective for those seeking deep relaxation, stress relief, and a moment of inner stillness.

Floating meditation

A meditative treatment at the surface of the water that soothes the mind through a vibrational sound atmosphere and relaxes the body through passive mobilization while floating.

The experience is accompanied by a calming sound atmosphere that supports the meditative state and deepens relaxation.
Through subtle mobilizations and acupressure stimulation, this treatment helps unwind accumulated stress while restoring fluidity in the body.
A deeply soothing experience for both body and mind.

Patients testimonials

Janzu

This Janzu session in the sea was incredible. I felt like I was in another world. I had a difficult year with a lot of stress, and finally, my body and mind could relax ; and experiencing it in salt water added a deeper dimension.

Floating meditation

I gave myself the gift of experiencing aquatic therapy, and it moved me beyond words. Floating, supported by the water, and surrendering completely felt like a rebirth - as if returning to the very beginning.

Janzu

An absolutely unique and deeply relaxing experience. The Janzu aquatic session was conducted with great professionalism and care. I felt completely safe, supported, and deeply relaxed throughout. It was much more than a massage - a beautiful experience for both body and mind. Highly recommended for anyone looking for something truly special and unlike anything else.

Janzu

I had never heard of Janzu before this experience. I would describe it as a deeply meditative session where you let go of the mind and simply relax while being gently held and guided in the water by Alice. She carefully observes your breathing and adapts the movements to you, so there is nothing to worry about. At moments, it almost feels like a rebirth. Alice is warm, attentive, and very reassuring. She communicated clearly before the session and explained what to expect, which made me feel completely at ease. The session took place in the wonderfully warm pool at the Keight Hilton in Opatija, which made the experience even more special. I especially loved the moments of gentle immersion under the water. I would highly recommend this experience with Alice if you are in Croatia. Thank you for such a special moment, I’m really glad we met.

Aquarelax

The aquatic relaxation duo session with my husband was a wonderful experience. It was deeply relaxing and completely new for both of us. The atmosphere at the spa of Keight Hilton in Opatija made the experience even more inspiring and special. After the session, my back pain was completely gone and my body felt lighter and more relaxed. We would highly recommend this unique experience with Alice.

Janzu

The Janzu session I experienced with Alice was unlike anything I had known before. Being gently held and guided in the water created an immediate sense of safety and trust, allowing my body to gradually release tension and control. At moments, the experience felt almost dreamlike, as if my mind could travel freely while my body remained deeply grounded in the water. The immersions beneath the surface were surprisingly refreshing and liberating, leaving me feeling lighter and clearer. After the session, my nervous system felt calmer, my body softer, and my mind quieter. What stayed with me most was the feeling of being fully supported — simply floating, breathing, and receiving. A deeply healing experience my body still remembers.
