BEACH THERAPY

Iodine rich air
A gray day on the beach at Berck-sur-Mer, reputed to have the saltiest sea air in the Pas-de-Calais. The French set great store by the benefits of l'air marin. It's worth noting that one of France's leading orthopedic surgery and physical therapy centers, a part of the Fondation Hopale medical group, sits just opposite the view above on prime ocean-front property. In fine weather patients accompanied  by family or friends take promenades on the long stretch of sea wall. 
The same stretch of beach on a sunny day.
Vocabulary
l'iode:  iodine
la kinésithérapie:  physical therapy
un/une kinésithérapeute:  a physical therapist
