Hot tubs offer a range of attractive benefits complementing the harmony of the body and soul.
Hydrotherapy Hydrotherapy is the use of heat, buoyancy and massage to relieve pain and promote physical well-being. Warm water increases blood circulation, which stimulates muscle activity as well as activity in the lymphatic and immune systems. As a result, toxins flush out of the body soothing sore or inflamed muscles and joints, increasing relaxation, and minimizing headaches. Buoyancy is the pleasant sensation of weightlessness that promotes greater flexibility of the body and relaxes muscle tissue. This is especially helpful for people who suffer from the swelling and stiffening of joints associated with arthritis. Massage, the rhythmic pressure of jet-driven water, soothes away tension and muscle soreness. It increases circulation and accelerates the body's natural healing process.
Physiotherapy Warm water physiotherapy is a safe treatment and a great way to improve flexibility and strength, build muscle endurance and balance, combat the aging process and improve the cardiovascular system. The flow of warm water of a hot tub eases muscle tension, reduces stress on joints, as well as relieves pressure on surrounding nerves, joints and blood vessels. Movement becomes easier, which is especially important for those suffering from arthritis and back pain.
Reflexology Our hands and feet have special points called "reflex points" that correspond to muscles, organs and body functions. Reflexology involves the application of deep pressure to these reflex points in order to loosen calcium obstructions and ease the nerve system. The benefits of massaging the hands and feet go beyond comforting relief for just those areas. Warm water promotes relaxation, enhancing the effects of the gentle pressure being applied to reflex points on the body.
Tactile therapy Tactile therapy is concerned with treating patients through touch - this includes relaxation and therapeutic massage. Smooth raise bumps, “rubbing” areas on the footwell and special seats target acupressure points on your feet, wrists, and back as well as disperse lactic acid build-up in muscles.
