Hot tubs are more than a luxury item. They can also be used as hydrotherapy tools to remedy a variety of ailments. From the common cold to painful arthritis, hot tubs offer a means to relieve pain in both your body and mind. Sometimes, it seems like we try to treat all of these illnesses with only a medicine bottle. Maybe it’s time to supplement medicine with another remedy. If you’re feeling a little sick, soak away these ailments with a hot tub.
Common Colds
Even everyday ailments like the common cold can be remedied with a good hot tub soak! The heat helps boosts your immune system, inducing a faux fever that can help stop a virus from spreading. If you have a sinus infection, a soak in your hot tub relieves the congestion pressure, giving you a chance to breathe.
Headaches
If you’re prone to headaches and migraines, a hot tub can help. Not only does the warm water increase blood flow, but powerful jets can also massage away those tension headaches. You can even take a washcloth out with you, wet it in the hot water, and place it over your eyes while you soak.
Sleep Disorders
Taking an evening soak before bed will help you sleep better at night. This is especially helpful if you struggle with insomnia. The warmth triggers your brain to de-stress, and when you get out, the decrease in your body temperature induces sleepiness. You’ll be catching Z’s again in no time.
Arthritis
Did you know that there are over 100 different forms of arthritis? And it’s not always due to aging bones. Rheumatoid arthritis, for example, can affect anyone at any age and it is very painful. Provide your body with the hot tub relief you need. The heat from soothing water acts like a warm compress to swollen joints. Plus, the added buoyancy takes the weight off your joints, which relieves pressure.
