Health benefits of jacuzzi baths

Not only are these baths luxurious and relaxing enabling you to recreate that spa environment in your own home, but they also have a multitude of health benefits associated with using them- just another great excuse to get yourself one!

Pain relief

Having a warm bath can relieve muscular aches and pains, even that associated with arthritis. This is because the warm water loosens muscle tension and dilates the blood vessels, consequently aiding the circulation of blood throughout the body and lowering your blood pressure. By relaxing the body and reducing tension having a bath can also reduce headaches.

Hydrotherapy

The massaging action from these spa baths acts as a type of hydrotherapy which will tone up your muscles and skin if used frequently. They can also aid weight loss if used daily for at least one month and give the body the effect similar to that after a brisk walk, although having a bath should not be considered an alternative to exercising!

General well-being

Jacuzzi baths allow for a deeper clean as they open your body’s pores, more than having a normal bath, to cleanse the skin of any impurities. A spa bath helps to massage away any stresses and tension so you can unwind and relax naturally, which is why having a warm bath before going to bed can also help you drift off into a peaceful sleep. It is a good idea for anyone suffering from insomnia to try this before opting for sleeping pills.

When you are looking at the options for your next bath consider buying a jacuzzi bath which will complement your bathroom suite as well as having a range of health benefits attached to it.

It is worth noting that a bath should never be too hot and you shouldn’t bathe for a prolonged period of time in a warm bath as it could make you dizzy.
