After having healed himself at 21 with simple water, like he had read in a very old book of the 18th century found in the library of his university, Sebastian Kneipp devoted his life to the understanding and using of water to heal all the illnesses that were presented to him. His numerous experiences lead him to his theory of the five elements: water, plants, nutrition, inner balance, exercise. (Activate the subtitels if it's not automatic).
1. water is the source of life
2. plants energize your body
3. food should be left natural
4. your soul should be balanced
5. steady exercise strengthens
