How Hot Tub Therapy Works
Did you know that relaxing in a hot tub regularly can help to improve your health? You can experience a wealth of health benefits through a water-based therapeutic technique known as hydrotherapy. The combination of heat, massage, and buoyancy helps your body relax and heal by creating a seamlessly weightless environment, improving your circulation, and releasing physical tension throughout the body. By soaking in a hot tub for as little as 15 minutes a day, you can experience all the healing power that hydrotherapy has to offer.
Improved sleep patterns
Reduced stress levels
Eased muscle tension
Soothed joint pain
Improved circulation
Weight maintenance
Better complexion
Stronger immune system
Who Can Benefit from Hydrotherapy?
While hydrotherapy is commonly used for the luxurious and relaxing experience that it creates, it can also lead to healing and relief for many who have certain health conditions. In fact, many hot tub owners purchase their hot tub with symptom management and whole-body relaxation in mind.
Those with the following may benefit from hydrotherapy, under direction from a physician:
- Arthritis
- Fibromyalgia
- Back pain
- Diabetes
- Migraines
- Fatigue
- Stress
- Anxiety
Improving Your Health with Spa Hydrotherapy
Could your health and wellness stand to benefit from the healing power of hydrotherapy? Relaxing in a hot tub for as little as 15-20 minutes several times a week, if not every day, can help to relax your muscles, boost your circulation and ease the stress that is both physical and emotional. These healing effects can lead you toward better health and wellness.
Disclaimer: Consult a physician to ensure your best health before using a hot tub to improve or treat an existing health condition or injury.
Aches and Pains
The buoyancy of the water lifts up to 90% of your body weight, creating a feeling of weightlessness. The warm water further helps your body to relax, while the massage action from the jets works to ease joint pain and reduce muscle tension.
Trouble Sleeping
Do you have poor sleep patterns? Soaking in a hot tub can help to prepare you for a full and uninterrupted night of sleep through relaxation and stress relief. Simply add 20-30 minutes of hydrotherapy to your day or bedtime routine.
Getting Sick
Soaking in warm water raises your internal temperature, acting as an artificial fever. This process tricks your body into thinking that it needs to create antibodies to fight off an infection or virus, in turn strengthening your immune system.
Feeling Stressed
Stress can manifest in both a physical and emotional way through feeling overwhelmed, exhausted or overexerting your body. Soaking in a hot tub can help you to relax and let go of built-up tension, leading to the gradual release of your stress.
