This paper examines human health in the context of socioecological systems. Considering a holistic healing model, this study explores how local self-curative practices are shaped by sensory experiencing and believes in the curative “magical” agency of blue space. Zooming on an aqua landscape, in a small town in the Czech Republic, discusses healing properties people assign to the aquatic landscape and argue that by engaging with the Otava River swimmers are constructing an eco-healing holistic model.
