Are you looking for a natural way to recharge your batteries? What if the solution came quite simply… from the sea? Quinton oligotherapy draws its power from seawater collected far from the coast, in an area rich in plankton, and then cold-microfiltered to preserve all its benefits. Rich in minerals and trace elements, this “living” water gently works to rebalance the body, support the immune system, and promote vitality. A simple approach that respects your body, helping you regain energy and enjoy greater well-being in your daily life.
More detailsQuinton Laboratories is a pharmaceutical company dedicated exclusively to the preparation of cold-microfiltered seawater to restore the body’s natural mineral balance. As direct heirs to the biologist and physiologist René Quinton, these laboratories are distinguished by their scrupulous adherence to their founder’s original method, which has been brought into compliance with European Pharmacopoeia standards. The laboratories welcome any requests for additional information on Marine Therapy and the use of Quinton products.
Although the laboratory and production site are located just 25 km from the Mediterranean coast,the seawateris sourced more than 680 km away from our facilities, slightly further north in the Bay of Biscay. This area was specifically chosen for its natural richness, which promotes the growth of phytoplankton and zooplankton. The biological richness of this location allows us to integrate nutrients into the food chain and thus increase the bioavailability of inorganic nutrients.
Furthermore, since this site is far from the coast, it avoids sources of pollution linked to industrial and agricultural activities and wastewater discharge. Once the seawater is extracted from a carefully selected location—and after undergoing an initial filtration on-site—a refrigerated truck transports the raw material to Quinton Laboratories.
It then undergoes rigorous analytical testing to verify that it is free of any pollutants, followed by a double cold microfiltration process to eliminate microorganisms. These steps are necessary to ensure the seawater is safe. Furthermore, the microfiltration process serves to preserve the qualities of the seawater and the organic matter it naturally contains, prevents the formation of free radicals, and prevents the precipitation of certain minerals such as calcium and magnesium salts.
The same effect occurs when other treatment methods are used—such as heat and ultraviolet rays— which can cause irritation or dehydration and are commonly employed in other seawater-based products.
The seawater used by Quinton Laboratories is sourced from a specific area of the Bay of Biscay, more than 680 kilometers from the laboratory’s facilities located near the Mediterranean coast. This area was carefully selected for several key reasons:
This specific choice reflects Laboratoires Quinton’s commitment to ensuring a raw material of unmatched purity and quality, in compliance with the strictest pharmacopoeia standards.
Once extracted, the seawater undergoes a series of rigorously controlled treatments to preserve its natural biological properties and ensure its safety.
The seawater is immediately filtered at the collection site to remove the coarsest impurities. It is then transported in refrigerated trucks specially designed to maintain an optimal temperature, thereby ensuring that its organic richness is preserved until it arrives at the laboratories.
Upon receipt, the seawater undergoes a series of rigorous analyses to verify the complete absence of chemical, microbiological, or organic pollutants. This testing guarantees absolute safety before subsequent treatment steps.
Unlike other treatment methods (which use heat or ultraviolet rays), Quinton Laboratories employs a dual cold microfiltration process. This key process preserves the intrinsic qualities of the seawater by keeping the organic matter it contains intact. This treatment:
This scientific approach guarantees safe and highly bioavailable seawater, suitable for the most demanding therapeutic uses.
Many treatments for seawater-based products use heat or UV techniques to eliminate pathogens. However, these methods have several major drawbacks:
By using exclusively cold microfiltration, Quinton Laboratories preserve the biological and therapeutic integrity of seawater, ensuring optimal efficacy without undesirable side effects.
Seawater prepared by Quinton Laboratories retains all of its natural properties, in particular:
Products from Quinton Laboratories are widely used in Marine Therapy, a natural therapeutic approach that draws on the benefits of seawater to support health and treat various physiological imbalances. Applications include:
