A therapeutic treatment using sand or sandy substances, possibly including heat therapy with sand.
From ammos (Greek: sand) + therapy (from Greek 'therapeia' meaning 'healing or treatment'), literally describing healing through sand-based treatments.
Sand therapy is genuinely ancient—warm sand baths were used by Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cultures for arthritis and muscle pain, making ammotherapy a bridge between folk medicine and modern wellness.
