How Your Wellness Routine Relieves Pain and Improves Your Life
You know that a hot tub is relaxing, and that soaking feels excellent. But did you know this wellness routine can provide benefits beyond relaxation? In this article, we look at how your wellness routine can relieve pain and improve your life.
Soaking in a hot tub is perfect for relaxing after a long day. But it’s so much more than that. Many people are using their hot tubs to improve the quality of their lives while relieving pain. They are finding hot tubs can ease pain and stiffness, help their muscles recover after exercise. They also find temporary relief from the symptoms of fibromyalgia, arthritis, and more.
If you are one of the millions of Americans suffering from injury, illness, too much time sitting, or surgery recovery, hot tubs may be the answer. Your pain may keep you from being active and doing the activities you love.
Let’s see how having a hot tub at home can help you feel like your best self.
Why Hydrotherapy?
We find hydrotherapy is an alternative therapy recognized for providing temporary relief from:
- Osteoarthritis
- Rheumatoid Arthritis
- Muscle and Joint Pain
- Fibromyalgia
- Aches and discomfort after exercise
As you soak in your hot tub, you notice the buoyancy of the water decreases the stress on your muscles and joints. This gives you an extra recovery period. Immersion in hot water contributes to that recovery. Your mind and your body relax.
In addition, warm water may reduce muscle spasms and relieve the experience of pain. Not only do hot tub soaks relieve mental and physical tension, but they improve your quality of life.
Remember, though, that you should consult with your doctor before soaking; this article is not a substitute for medical advice.
Pain Relief and Your Well-Being
You want to soak every day to get the most out of your hot tub and its hydrotherapy benefits. This can be at any time of day, and you can find the time that works best for your schedule and makes you feel the best.
A spa in your backyard is your own wellness retreat. You may find it transforms your life and relieves your pain.
Hot Tub Magic
Our Hot Spring Highlife hot tubs provide you with a premium massage experience. With patented and innovative jets, they target specific muscle groups. In turn, you experience a “magic” massage experience.
The SmartJet® System allows you to direct water flow to different jet groups and seats throughout the spa. The Comfort Control® feature lets you dial in your ideal mix of air and water. This helps you control the intensity of your massage ranging from a robust massage to a soft touch.
The Perfect Temperature
We want you to have a personalized experience in your new hot tub. You are able to tune your hot tub for comfort and pain relief.
We recommend you keep your spa water at or under 104°F. You can start lower than 104 degrees (between 98° and 100°) to find the right temperature for you.
The key is to reach the point where your muscles are relaxed without overheating you.
The Key is in the Water
Once you have your heat set, you can plan how you’ll spend time in your hot tub.
Because of the nurturing effect of the water, you can spend time in your spa doing low-impact exercise. This helps stimulate your muscles and joints. In just 15-20 minutes each day, you’ll find you are more flexible.
Plus, the water’s buoyancy takes the weight and pressure off your joints, making you feel fit and pain-free.
Final Thoughts on Your Wellness Routine
The best part about using your hot tub to feel better is that it’s easy to work into your routine. Even if you are super busy, you can find 15 minutes or so to fit in a warm soak.
You will best stress, feel more comfortable, and stick to your wellness goals.
