The Benefits of Hot Tubbing Outdoors – Hot Tubs Golden Valley, St. Louis Park, MN

Wednesday, January 22nd, 2014

When temperatures are mild, most people spend a considerable amount of time outside. Whether it’s taking a walk after dinner, washing the car or simply lounging on the front porch, outdoor time is frequent. But when the temperature drops, it’s more difficult to get outside and fresh air is limited to the few seconds we spend moving from our vehicles to indoors.

Over a long winter season, lack of fresh air and sunshine impacts mood, leaving many of us grumpy and miserable. Don’t suffer another day when you don’t have to. Here’s how to beat “winter blues” and some other benefits of hot tubbing outdoors.

Elevate Mood - There’s no question, using a hot tub when you’re grumpy can lift your spirits. Now add the open air and it’s almost impossible not to feel instantly rejuvenated. Hot tubbing in the great outdoors (even if it’s the backyard) is one of the easiest ways to elevate a sour mood. With heated massage, aches and pains are a distant memory and stress melts away, leaving the sound of rippling water and the sensation of cold air and hot skin. A twenty-minute dip is all you need to beat the blues.

Mental Relaxation - Spending time outdoors has a tremendous positive impact on one’s mental state of mind. A few minutes communing with nature and you have a clear mind. It’s an opportunity to become more focused, making it easier to prioritize. In fact, using a hot tub outdoors is one of the most effective ways to foster creativity and innovation. This is the quiet serenity you need to come up with a better plan, a newer strategy and a fail proof solution to all that you do.

Boost Immunity - Believe it or not, lounging in your hot tub outside may be the perfect way to stave off the winter flu and there’s evidence to support the idea that just being in nature can actually boost immunity. Scientists note that spending time around trees and bushes increases exposure to phytoncides, which increases immune function, helping you stay healthier longer. While there are many possibilities, one very obvious reason has to do with decreased stress. The less stress you feel, the healthier you are and the less likely you are to get sick.

Winter time hot tubbing in the great outdoors is an experience everyone should have the pleasure to enjoy. After all, nature, in all of its glory, helps us feel calm, elevates our mood and keeps us at peace regardless of the weather. Let the stress go and take a dip outside to feel great!

‘Tis the Season to Relax: Enjoying the Hot Tub – Hot Tubs Hudson, Portable Spas River Fall

Monday, December 23rd, 2013

What is it about the holiday season that gets us so stressed out? Is it the planning and coordinating? Family responsibilities? The family? It seems no matter how hard we try, tension, pressure and anxiety sneak in every year, dragging us down and putting a damper on what should be one of the most enjoyable and relaxing times of the year. Take a different spin this year and make it the season to relax. Here’s how to enjoy an in-home hot tub for some well deserved pre-holiday bliss.

Plan a “Date Night” - Whether you have kids or not, when is the last time you and your significant other actually spent a quality evening together? If you’re having trouble placing the date, then you’re more than over due for a date night. Sure, money is tight with the holidays coming and it’s not so easy to plan a fun evening without it costing an arm and a leg. That’s where the hot tub comes in. Imagine a romantic dinner followed by a relaxing and soothing dip in the hot tub for some intimate R&R. Date night doesn’t always have to involve a fancy restaurant or expensive outing. In fact, without the hassle of driving, parking and fighting traffic, the night is already a success.

Take Some “Me” Time - You are not alone if you have a demanding schedule. Everyone has deadlines and commitments and with the holidays almost here, things are getting busier than ever. Smart people have learned to balance life with relaxation by taking that “me” time every chance they get. The truth is, by giving yourself a break, you end up being more productive in the end. Plan to use the hot tub for twenty minutes at the end of the work day or as an easy transition from awake to sleep before bed. Soaking in the warm water and relaxing with personalized massage gives your mind and body the chance to rest, refresh and recharge.

Make it a Family Affair - Too often, when our lives get busy, it’s easy to forget to make family time a priority. Before the holiday madness emerges, plan to set aside some time in the evenings or on a weekend to relax with the ones you love. Enjoying a hot tub together is one of the easiest ways to engage teenagers in meaningful conversation and get the whole family laughing and having a good time. With no distractions from cell phones, television or computers, it’s easier than ever to stay connected with those who mean the most to you.

This holiday season, make it more about relaxation and less about stress and pressure. Spend some quality time, with the one you love, soaking in the hot tub for a special night in, grab that important “me” time you deserve and enjoy undistracted conversation with the whole family. Soaking in the warmth and comfort of an in-home hot tub is the perfect way to start the season off right.

Hot Tubs Hudson, Portable Spas River Falls, WI – Beat Insomnia With a Soak in the Hot Tub

Monday, December 16th, 2013

It’s three in the morning and you have a busy day tomorrow, but you just can’t seem to stop tossing and turning. It’s impossible to get comfortable. Sound familiar? The truth is, you’re not alone if you experience sleep-related troubles at least a couple of times a month. In fact, studies confirm that as many as one out of every four workers in the United States suffer from insomnia. That’s a lot of time spent tossing and not a lot of time spent sleeping. The good news is, you can beat insomnia and do it naturally with a fifteen minute soak in the hot tub. Here’s how:

Ease the Transition Into a Deeper Sleep - When the body falls asleep, it typically goes through different stages. The first stage is a light sleep, which leads to a deep, sound sleep, called REM sleep. The REM stage is important because this is where the body restores energy, repairs and nourishes itself. Often, even if you manage to drift off, it’s difficult to make the transition from light sleep to deep sleep. Using a hot tub is an easy way to help the body move into REM sleep. It has to do with a drop in body temperature which alerts the brain that deep sleep is coming. Soaking in a hot tub causes body temperature to rise. When you get out of the water and prepare for bed, temperature drops, easing the transition into a deep sleep.

Calm the Brain, Relax the Mind - Too often, part of the reason many of us toss and turn at night is because we simply can’t stop replaying the events of the day in our head. Whether it was an unusually difficult conversation, a missed opportunity or a high stress situation, not being able to shut the mind down causes the body to stay alert. Sitting in warm, relaxing water is soothing physically as well as mentally, creating calm and peace to slow your thoughts, and finally get the rest you need.

Relax Sore, Stiff Muscles - Sometimes it’s difficult to sleep - not because of a racing mind, but because of pain. Whether it’s arthritis, a stiff neck from stress or chronic back pain, it’s nearly impossible to get a good night’s rest when you can’t find relief. Luckily, a quick twenty-minute soak prior to going to bed is an all-natural and safe way to relax sore muscles and joints. With targeted massage, it’s easy to direct high-powered jets precisely where pain is the worst, bringing instant relief and comfort.

Insomnia isn’t rare or something most of us don’t have to worry about. Millions of people suffer from a lack of sleep, resulting in physical and emotional problems that can jeopardize performance at work and at home. Using a hot tub is a safe, natural way to induce the deep, restorative sleep that we need to look and feel our best. A twenty-minute soak before bed and drifting off to a good night’s sleep has never been easier.
