Water alone, as a curative element for the diseases of mankind? Such statement may arouse some skepticism! Ok, we drink to hydrate our bodies, we wash for hygienic purposes, and we swim because exercise is good for us. Yet, albeit essential, and paired with positive effect to our health, these uses of water are not understood as curative of diseases alone. Father Kneipp though, cured illness and diseases of the sick by subjecting them to treatments with water. He left to the after-world a ‘cure’ that does impact disease and brings about healing for many.
