When it comes to relieving pain associated with sore muscles or stiff joints, there’s nothing that comes close to the soothing effects of a hot tub. But did you know there are other, more serious health benefits derived from the hot tub? It’s true, a daily soak can lower blood pressure, ease symptoms of fibromyalgia, and even control diabetes. For the millions of people who suffer from one or more of these conditions, a hot tub is a natural, effective solution for relieving pain and feeling better.
Hot Tub Therapy for Diabetes - Is it true that a regular dip in the hot tub alleviates common issues related to diabetes? According to a few recent studies in The New England Journal of Medicine it does. Type 2 Diabetes affects everyone differently, but a regular hot tub soak has been shown to help people more effectively lose weight, decrease sugar levels and of course, improve sleep.
Just 30 minutes a day can reduce blood gluclose levels, potentially lowering the amount of insulin needed on a daily basis. As a diabetic, exercise may be difficult and a hot tub is the perfect solution for increasing blood flow and elevating the body’s temperature- improving gluclose uptake in the body and promoting weight loss.
Calm and Soothe Achy, Stiff Joints and Muscles - Perhaps one of the easiest, most effective ways to relieve back pain, sore muscles or stiff joints common with arthritis or fibromyalgia is a soak in the hot tub. The water is warm, soothing and comforting- the perfect opportunity to float effortlessly(,) taking pressure off joints and muscles. The massaging jets work wonders by targeting pain which increases flexibility and improves range of motion. There’s even evidence to support the idea that a regular dip in the hot tub promotes the healing of damaged muscle tissue. An all-natural alternative to drugs, a hot tub experience can leave achy muscles and joints feeling rejuvenated and refreshed.
What About Blood Pressure? - Here’s some great news for all of us looking for an easy solution for lowering our blood pressure. A daily trip to the hot tub can lower your blood pressure by increasing heart rate which naturally increases blood flow. What does this mean? Basically, as your body temperature increases, your blood vessels dilate, which makes it easier for blood to spread throughout the body. The result? A drop in blood pressure. Keeping blood pressure under control has a lot to with managing stress appropriately. A hot tub experience can only help by reducing stress, improving sleep and easing pain of tired, sore muscles.
You may already practice good habits by eating a healthy diet and exercising, but now you can add hot- tubbing to your list of healthy to do’s. A daily soak in the hot tub is the perfect, all natural solution for relieving joint and muscle pain, lowering blood pressure and lessening symptoms of Type 2 Diabetes. It is possible to hot tub your way to better health!
