Imagine starting your day with a rejuvenating soak in a Hot Spring® spa. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet morning or a starry evening, our small hot tubs fit perfectly into your lifestyle and space. Here are five reasons why a 2-person or 3-person small hot tub might be the perfect fit.

1. A 2-Person Or 3-Person Hot Tub Is Ideal For Small Spaces

You don’t need a large home or yard to enjoy the benefits of hot tubbing. A 3-person hot tub like the Jetsetter®, Jetsetter® LX, or SX can easily fit on a small patio or deck. Or, consider the triangular TX, a 2-person hot tub with a unique shape that fits into spaces other spas don’t.

Whether you’re starting out, downsizing to a smaller home, or comfortable in your space, a 2-person or 3-person hot tub helps create a backyard retreat. Immerse yourself in warm water, massage to revitalize, slow down to recover, or connect with a loved one to feel closer.

2. A Small Hot Tub Encourages Distraction-Free Connection & Intimate Chats

A 2-person hot tub outside a bedroom or den can create a warm space for couples to connect and recharge whenever they find a minute together. If you’re looking for more quality time with someone you care about, enjoy a perfect private spa experience that is distraction-free, regardless of space limitations.

3. A 2-Person Or 3-Person Hot Tub Is Perfect For Empty Nesters

When children grow and move away, the experience can be bittersweet. Though the house may feel empty, it allows you to discover new interests and revise your daily routine. Downsizing parents have a chance to slow down and find new ways to connect. A small hot tub is the perfect way to enjoy the newfound freedom of an empty nest.

4. Small Hot Tubs Help Active People Keep Moving

If you’re going to stay fit, healthy, and active, taking care of your body is important. The massaging jets of a Hot Spring spa, used before or after exercise, can help muscles relax and encourage blood flow, which can help reduce pain.

A soak after a workout can enhance the stress-relieving benefits of exercise, and help to keep performing at your very best, even when space is limited.

5. A Small Spa Gives You Access to an Instant Retreat

Successful people know it’s crucial to schedule time for reflection and recovery. Whether you need to recover from the stress of a busy day or want a few minutes to ease stiffness and relieve aches and pains, a small hot tub provides the perfect warm water retreat. A regular soak each morning or evening can do wonders for your focus and mindset.

A hot tub isn’t just for relaxing; it’s also a chance to reset your mind. How much more could you get out of life if you had space to focus, recover, and recharge daily?

How A Daily Hot Tub Soak Can Help Improve Physical Wellness

This blog originally appeared on hotspring.com and has been edited for clarity.

There’s no one magic pill to take that improves your physical wellness. Instead, incorporating small, but healthy habits into your routine can create a complete, wellness-focused lifestyle. This may include eating nutritious meals, practicing self-care, a good night’s sleep, and exercising regularly. But also consider adding a daily hot tub soak to your wellness regimen. Hydrotherapy can provide amazing health benefits, allowing you to recharge, reconnect, and recuperate. 

How To Improve Physical Wellness With Hydrotherapy

Taking steps to improve physical well-being doesn’t mean you need to enter triathlons. Instead, it’s about being dedicated to a wellness routine, while being thoughtful and active. If you work in an office, consider standing up to stretch more often or taking a walk on your lunch break. If you live close to your job, think about walking or biking to work. If you’re a parent, set time aside to play outside with the kids and reconnect with them when you get home.

You don’t have to change your life drastically or push yourself to a quick extreme. Wellness isn’t a sprint. It can be as relaxing and enjoyable as soaking in a hot tub.

What Is Hot Tub Hydrotherapy?

Hot tub hydrotherapy — the combined therapeutic effects of heat, buoyancy, and massage — can improve your health, especially when enjoyed as part of a daily routine. Warm water immersion:

• Relaxes muscles;
• Creates buoyancy which reduces joint tension while easing aches and pains;
• Jet massages can work out knots caused by hard work or stress; and 
• Improves emotional wellness so you feel better physically and mentally.

Hot Tubs Make Hydrotherapy More Accessible

With a home spa, the benefits of hydrotherapy become more: accessible, private, and therapeutic. Having a hot tub at the center of a wellness routine can inspire you to stick with an overall wellness plan because it’s an enjoyable experience. Unlike fighting the crowds at the gym, soaking in a hot tub every morning or at night before bed will be a bright spot in the day, helping you feel good about the effort you’re making.

A Good Night’s Sleep Can Improve Physical Wellness

Sleep is a major component of wellness, affecting many areas of life. A lack of sleep can alter your mood and make weight loss more difficult. If you’re perpetually tired, you likely won’t have the energy to work out or stay committed to other health-related activities.

A warm soak before bed can help you sleep better if you suffer from common sleep ailments, such as insomnia, and help relieve the day’s stress and naturally ease your body into sleep. After a good night’s sleep, a morning soak is invigorating and mentally prepares you for even the most trying day.

Soak Your Way To Better Well-Being

Enhancing physical wellness is about developing healthy habits that contribute to overall well-being. A daily soak in a hot tub can help promote health by providing all the benefits of hydrotherapy in an enjoyable and relaxing experience. No matter what your exact routine is, with your hot tub as the cornerstone, you’ll be making wellness a priority in your life and increasing your chances for success in all your wellness goals.
