How We Recommend Drinking Water for True Hydration (The Moench Method Way)
At Moench Method Bodywork, we believe that how you drink water matters just as much as how much you drink.
Proper hydration isn’t about chugging large amounts all at once — it’s about steady, intentional sipping throughout the day to support circulation, tissue health, and recovery. This becomes even more crucial during bodywork sessions and physical activity.
Here’s exactly how we recommend staying hydrated to maximize your body’s wellness:

1. Sip 3–4 oz of Water Every 30 Minutes
Throughout your day, aim to sip about 3–4 ounces of water every 30 minutes.
This steady intake helps maintain consistent hydration at the cellular level without overwhelming your kidneys or flushing minerals too quickly from your system.
Think of it as fueling your body little by little, keeping your tissues nourished all day long.
Pro Tip: Carry a high-quality, easy-to-sip water bottle like a YETI Rambler Tumbler or Simple Modern Tumbler to make consistent hydration effortless.
2. Increase to 6–8 oz Every 15 Minutes During Exercise or Sweating
When you’re exercising, receiving bodywork, spending time in the Texas heat, or sweating heavily, increase your intake to 6–8 ounces every 15 minutes.
Sweating causes the body to lose both water and essential minerals. Matching your hydration to your sweat output helps maintain energy, focus, and recovery.
Client Tip: If you’re sweating, you aren’t just losing water — you’re losing electrolytes too. Hydrate smarter, not just more!
3. Add Electrolytes for Deeper Hydration
Plain water is important, but without electrolytes, your body can’t properly absorb and retain it.
We recommend:
- A pinch of high-quality sea salt added to water once or twice a day (shop our favorite sea salt here).
- An electrolyte packet daily, especially around workouts or sessions — we love Nectar Hydration Packets for a clean, delicious option with no added sugars or artificial ingredients.
Maintaining electrolyte balance supports hydration, energy, digestion, and even recovery from bodywork treatments.
4. Upgrade Your Water Quality: Kangen Water at Every Moench Method Location
Hydration is most powerful when the water itself is pure and supportive.
