The book is a comprehensive review of thalassotherapy and seawater cures, and the cosmeceuticals derived from marine algae as novel sources of cosmetic ingredients.

This comprehensive text offers an in-depth exploration of the research and issues related to the use of seawater and marine environment for therapies, as well as the composition of cosmeceuticals derived from seaweed. With contributions from an international team of experts, the book describes the amazing field of thalassotherapy, highlighting the characteristics of seawater, the techniques of applying seawater and the mechanisms of action, as well as the climatic factors that complement marine therapies. Of particular relevance are cosmeceuticals derived from seaweed, which have been the subject of intense research in recent years.
