Hot tub therapy can improve your life in ways you may not have considered before. There’s nothing quite like spending some time in a spa and enjoying the renewed feeling that can help to improve your health and state of mind. Essentially, hot tub therapy is like a reset button that helps you start afresh. If you’re considering hot tub therapy or getting a hot tub of your own, it helps to understand what it is and all of the benefits of hot tub therapy.

How It Works

Hot tub therapy is an ancient practice that has been used for centuries to relax muscles, relieve stress and experience the renewal effect of immersing yourself in warm water. Ancient Egyptians and Greeks, for example, built their palaces around hot springs. Over time, as people learned more about the benefits of soaking, engineers created artificial hot springs for personal as well as public use. Today, high-quality spas feature sophisticated massage jet systems designed to deliver targeted and measured pressure to sore spots and muscles in the body.

Hot tub therapy works by improving blood flow and relaxing muscles. At the same time, buoyancy helps to reduce inflammation and pressure on joints. The combination of warm water, buoyancy and massage jet systems provide a total-body therapeutic experience. The warm water reduces tensions while the spa jets massage away muscle pains and aches like a skilled masseuse.

Whether you’re suffering from mental and physical tensions or chronic pain, spending time in a hot tub on a regular basis can provide wide-ranging therapeutic benefits and dramatically improve your quality of life. Here’s a more detailed look at the benefits of hot tub therapy:

Stress Relief

Hot tub therapy offers a reprieve from life’s stressful conditions. When you’re in a hot tub, you don’t have to worry about work, phone calls, taking care of the kids, paying bills or any other hectic routines of modern-day life. There’s nothing to worry about, and the only thing on your mind is how soothing the warm water feels. The pleasant feeling contributes to the release of feel-good hormones in your brain, thus, elevating your mood.

Muscle Massage

Massages have been proven to have both physical and mental benefits. Massage provokes the nervous system to relax the entire body and improve both blood and lymph circulation, allowing oxygen to spread more easily through the body.

Relaxation

As muscles relax, the mind settles, shedding away the anxiety and stress that can easily get overwhelming. The relaxation that results from jet massage reduces hypertension, stress, anxiety and helps to curb insomnia.

Additional Illnesses and Conditions

The joint loosening and muscle relaxing benefits of hot tub therapy have been shown to help with additional conditions such as scoliosis, depression, fibromyalgia and tendonitis.

Moreover, hot tubs create an excellent platform for people to talk face to face instead of online. Stepping away from all the distractions that lead to poor social interactions and relationships allows you to spend quality time with friends and family and solidify social bonds.

Bottom Line

It’s no surprise that hot tub therapy is growing in popularity. It improves your overall health and quality of life. Above were some of the benefits of hot tub therapy and some reasons why you should implement a hot tub in your home if you’re feeling stressed out. Although ultimately, regardless of the reason why you’re getting a hot tub in the first place, Richard’s Total Backyard Solutions provides quality hot tubs that you can enjoy for recreational and health use.

Very professional throughout the entire process from design to the first pool cleaning. My salesperson helped me the entire way and helped me understand why it is so important to spend a little extra money on the front end of the transaction to save money in the long term. I am happy with my pool.
