Rarely do health and pleasure come together like they do in an Artesian Spa.
While many may think of hot tubs as a luxury item, reserved for those
that have the means to enjoy the fine life, for others a spa is an indispensable
part of making it through the day. The scientifically proven benefits
associated with regular therapeutic hot tub use are beyond dispute and
even prescribed by many doctors as a form of treatment for pain, stiffness,
arthritis, diabetes and more. Some of the basic health benefits in spa
ownership are as follows:
1) Stress Relief -There are physiological as well as
psychological reasons that a spa so successfully relieves stress and helps
you unwind during tense times. Hydrotherapy combined with heat therapy
and the buoyancy of being submerged in water all work together to allow
your body to release tension, stiff muscles to loosen, and blood to flow
more freely. [These physical enhancements bear mental and emotional fruit
as the controlled environment of the spa work together to produce an environment
conducive to general relaxation.]
2) Arthritic Pain, Fibromyalgia –A trip to the
masseuse is sometimes the only relief that sufferers of chronic arthritis
and joint pain can find. Your spa is literally your own personal mechanical
masseuse, at your beck and call whenever you need it. The added benefits
of heat for better blood flow and buoyancy to relieve the strain of gravity
on your frame make the spa an ideal treatment for both disorders. A spa
is a great way to ease the daily burden of constant joint pain.
3) Better Sleep –Heat brings down the body’s
internal temperature, allowing for natural relaxation. Unlike the use
of medications and prescription sleep aids, the circulation and warmth
of a spa encourages the body to unwind and rest on its own, leading to
a more restful sleep. The simple relaxation of a few minutes in a hot
tub can lead to a more rested, productive, and healthy life.
4) Type 2 Diabetes –A recent study in the New England
Journal of Medicine shows that sufferers of Type 2 Diabetes can benefit
from regular use of a spa. Most diabetics are unable to endure rigorous
activity, and have difficulty with weight and circulation. The study revealed
that sufferers experienced a significant decrease in blood sugar levels,
and improved sleep after spending 30 minutes a day in a spa. For those
who live with the daily discomfort and inconvenience of diabetes, a spa
can be the doorway to a fuller, more enjoyable life.
