Tuesday, October 6th, 2020

For centuries, people have traveled to hot springs to bathe in the mineral-rich waters and experience their restorative powers. These hot springs are prized for their ability to improve health and wellness in a relaxing and natural way. Now you can enjoy those same transformative properties without ever leaving the peace and comfort of your backyard. By adding the benefits of a salt water hot tub to your everyday life, you can more frequently enjoy complete relaxation, avoid the harsh odors, itchy skin or eyes that can happen with a chlorine tub, and minimize the time you spend on cleaning and maintenance.

EXPLORE THE BENEFITS OF
SALT WATER HOT TUBS

1. Hot tubs become more like hot springs

One of the biggest benefits of a salt water hot tub compared to a chlorine tub is its ability to eliminate the unpleasant side effects of chlorine. Many people wish to avoid odors from chlorine and the itchy effects on eyes and skin that some people experience. With a salt water system, you get the more natural feeling, warm and soothing water with several technological advantages shown here.

Natural-feeling water

A salt water system in your hot tub makes the water feel more natural and comfortable for everyday use. With the softer water experience with less chance of skin or eye irritation from chlorine.

Enhance your fitness routine

A salt water hot tub supports your active lifestyle by bringing hydrotherapy into your home. Hot tubs relieve the pressure on muscles and help loosen joints, while also improving circulation. By incorporating hot tub sessions into your exercise routine, you can relax and rejuvenate your body between workouts.

Eco-friendly

Part of leading a healthy lifestyle is maintaining a healthy environment. Thankfully, salt water hot tubs from Hot Spring® spas are eco-friendlier than their traditional chlorine counterparts. That’s because you only need to change the water once a year with normal use. Less water usage and less chemical usage mean salt water systems are easier on you, your family and the environment.

2. Less maintenance

Most home owners want to spend more time enjoying their hot tub than they do maintaining it. Here again, salt water hot tubs produce some tremendous benefits.

Easy to maintain

With a salt water system with Hot Spring® spas, you take the guesswork out of water care. With a little salt added to the spa water, the system generates chlorine automatically and reduces your time spent measuring and adding chemicals. Plus, advanced spas let you monitor the sanitizing system with an intuitive control panel. This simplified system takes the work out of hot tub maintenance so you can focus on improving your health and well-being.

3. Enjoy total relaxation

Hot tubs in general are the perfect way to bring a calming, relaxing experience into your home. Strong chlorine odors, itchy eyes and dry skin don’t belong at a natural hot spring, so it shouldn’t be part of your attempt to recreate that experience at home. If you’re after the experience of a soaking in a natural hot spring at your home, you should look at a salt water hot tub.

What does a hot tub do for your body?

Monday, February 10th, 2020

If you’ve spent any time shopping for a new hot tub, you’ve probably heard a lot about how good hot tubs are for your health. But apart from being relaxing and soothing, many people still wonder, “What does a hot tub actually do for your body?” The short answer? A lot.

Using a hot tub regularly can have a tremendous impact on a number of health conditions and provide a big boost to your overall well-being. To understand the effects of a hot tub on the body, here are some common physical ailments and health issues that can be alleviated with regular hot tub use.

Muscle soreness

Chronic pain affects an estimated 20% of U.S. adults or around 50 million people. Often, that pain takes the form of sore muscles. Thankfully, hot tubs might be able to provide some relief. The heat from the spa water could help loosen tight muscles and encourage blood flow, which can help reduce pain. Powerful jet systems can also massage the muscles and alleviate any tension that may be causing discomfort. That’s why regular hot tub use might not only relieve pain, but it can also provide a boost for your exercise routine as well.

Joint pain

Joint pain is another common affliction that can be improved through daily hot tub use. The reason is simple: The buoyancy of water can take weight off of your joints, which might help relieve joint pain or arthritis pain. According to the Arthritis Foundation, warm water immersion “offers 360-degree support for sore limbs, can decrease swelling and inflammation and increase circulation.” They also note that the effects of a hot tub on your body may continue for a prolonged period after you’ve left the spa.

Stress

Modern life is full of stressors that can take their toll on your physical and emotional well-being. But hot tubs help melt that stress away through the power of warm water hydrotherapy. Studies have shown that your body’s autonomic nervous system balances out when you immerse yourself in warm water. This balancing act could help you better manage stress and can even lead to “a reduction in the risk of cardiovascular disease, improved memory, enhanced cognitive processes and increased concentration.”

Anxiety

Hot tubs might help reduce anxiety in much the same way that they can impact your stress levels. The way warm water affects your body’s nervous system might help you process emotions and relieve anxiety. But there are features beyond the water itself that can help with anxiety. Built-in LED lights help create a calming atmosphere while integrated Bluetooth speakers allow you to listen to relaxing music or a guided meditation program.

Poor sleep

According to one study , up to 70% of U.S. adults say they don’t get the sleep they need. And lack of sleep quickly takes a toll on both mind and body. But a hot tub can help correct that. A relaxing soak before bed helps you disconnect from the stresses and obligations in your daily life. Taking a break from screens and social media also helps quiet your mind and has been proven to lead to better sleep. By relaxing your muscles and erasing the worries of the day, a hot tub can set the stage for night after night of restorative sleep.

Conclusion

When it comes down to it, there’s a lot that a hot tub does for your body. But you won’t know how it’ll work for you until you try it yourself. Find your local Hot Spring dealer and schedule a wet test today. You’ll be able to experience the massage of powerful jets and enjoy all the transformative properties of your very own hot tub.
