Morocco has an important groundwater reserve, especially in the Atlas domain, corresponding to its largest water reservoir. This reserve comes from rainwater infiltrated into rocks and sediments to give rise to mineralized waters feeding many springs and having curative properties, which confer each spa-specific therapeutic indications, based on the medicinal properties of its waters. All over the world, mineral waters of thermal springs have interesting therapeutic uses to cure some diseases; unfortunately, such potential is underexploited in Morocco. This narrative review deals with the distribution of thermal springs in Morocco, the classification of their thermal waters, and their health effects, with the aim to enhance them. For this purpose, previous studies’ results on different aspects of thermal waters were searched in the most famous scientific databases, by using targeted specific keywords. Literature has shown that Morocco contains several thermal springs, scattered throughout the Middle Atlas, in the South, and in the Rif, which are regarded as waters of high therapeutic quality, whose thermal cures are often recommended to people suffering from rheumatism and locomotor system’s diseases, skin diseases such as eczema and psoriasis, cardiovascular diseases, overweight, or respiratory troubles. However, apart from the unique and real thermal station of Moulay Yacoub, the other thermal springs are exploited in an empirical and artisanal way, mainly by a local population. So, as hydrotherapy constitutes a good choice of natural therapy using water components as a complement or alternative to conventional treatments, a better understanding of the thermal springs’ distribution in Morocco, their thermal waters’ classification, and their potential health effects may enable their valorization through a better use of their waters.

“…Water use has occurred since the time of Hippocrates (460-375 BC), with widespread use throughout Greece and ancient Rome and the construction of numerous therapeutic spaces, as a source of curing illnesses. However, over the years, its use was reduced by intense scientific growth, mainly pharmacological interventions (11)(12)(13) . However, with the resurgence of emphasis on non-pharmacological interventions, it is necessary to look again at water use.…”

Objectives: to identify immersion use in hot water to relieve pain in newborns. Methods: an integrative literature review, carried out in the PubMed, VHL, EMBASE, Scopus, CINAHL, Cochrane and SciELO databases, with investigations in English, Spanish, French or Portuguese, published between 2002 and 2022. The Health Sciences Descriptors (DeCS) and Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) were used to answer the following question: what are the uses of hot water immersion in relieving pain in newborns? Results: nine studies were included, mainly Brazilian, experimental, with a predominance of strong and moderate levels of evidence. Hydrotherapy and bath use (immersion and bandaging) was observed, promising interventions in reducing pain scores, assessed using scales, physiological and endocrine parameters. Conclusions: hot water proved to be a promising non-pharmacological intervention in relieving pain in infants in different contexts.

“…O emprego da água ocorre desde a época de Hipócrates (460-375 a.C.), com uso difundido pela Grécia e Roma antiga e construção de inúmeros espaços terapêuticos, como fonte de cura de doenças. Entretanto, com o passar dos anos, seu uso foi reduzido pelo intenso crescimento científico, principalmente de intervenções farmacológicas (11)(12)(13) . Porém, com o ressurgimento da ênfase em intervenções não farmacológicas, torna-se necessário a retomada do olhar para o emprego da água.…”

RESUMO Objetivos: identificar o emprego da imersão em água quente no alívio da dor em neonatos. Métodos: revisão integrativa da literatura, realizada nas bases de dados PubMed, BVS, EMBASE, Scopus, CINAHL, Cochrane e SciELO, com investigações em inglês, espanhol, francês ou português, publicadas entre 2002 e 2022. Foram utilizados os Descritores em Ciências da Saúde (DeCS) e Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) para responder à seguinte inquietação: quais são os empregos da imersão em água quente no alívio da dor em neonatos? Resultados: foram incluídos nove estudos, principalmente brasileiros, experimentais, predominando o nível de evidência forte e moderada. Foram observados o emprego da hidroterapia e banhos (imersão e enfaixado), intervenções promissoras na redução do escore álgico, avaliados por meio de escalas, parâmetros fisiológicos e endócrinos. Conclusões: a água quente se mostrou uma intervenção não farmacológica promissora no alívio da dor de neonatos em diferentes contextos.
