When you hear that someone has installed a hot tub into their bathroom, or had one put out on their back porch, you may immediately think of it as a pure luxury, and something people don't really "need". Yet if you've ever been to a spa, or even enjoyed a hot tub after exercising at a gym, you may have found yourself wondering "wouldn't it be great to have one of these at home".
It's not just about feeling good. Of course they feel good. Hot baths have been used since ancient times for medicinal and therapeutic reasons by ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans. When you're experiencing a hot bath, or sitting in a hot tub, the heat of the water makes your blood vessels dilate which increases the blood circulation. Good blood circulation is essential for healing, good health, and wellbeing.
For those with chronic pain or arthritic symptoms, spending time in a hot tub can make the difference between a day filled with pain or pain killers, and a day spent pain free. Floating in warm water stimulates the release of endorphins, which are natural pain killers.
Even if you don't have a physical reason for using a hot tub regularly, there is no disputing that hot tubs help with stress. At the end of a stressful day, which is most days in this culture, a quick fifteen minute soak can really help you unwind and relax, and lead to a better night's sleep. It's a mental relaxation as well as a physical one.
Hot tubs can be a great place just to spend quality time. Put away the image of wild parties and drinks flowing. They can be a great place for a couple to just relax and chat or for family members and friends to chill out. Much better than the TV or computer. They are great for when you feel you are coming down with an illness, just what you need for a quick detox as the raised body temperature will flush any illness right out of your system.
