Show Yourself Some Love With a Hot Tub
If you’ve ever wondered how beneficial using a hot tub is for your heart, research continues to confirm that these soaks work wonders on your heart health. With February recognized as American Heart Health Month, it’s important to recognize that while heart disease affects a large population of Americans, regularly soaking in a hot tub allow for improved health and wellness.
Read on to learn more about the benefits of warm water immersion and why investing in a hot tub is one of the best things you can do for your cardiovascular health.
Hot Tubs Release Stress
Warm water can have a soothing effect on your entire body. It helps you relax and relieve stress. Since stress is a leading cause of heart disease and can have other adverse effects on your health, it’s vital to take time out of your day to allow your body the ability to properly deal with stress.
Whether you wake up and start your day with a warm water soak to get yourself going or hit the reset button at night and find yourself taking a soak at the end of the day, there is no wrong way to soak in a hot tub, just as long as you’re doing it. Adding low lights, music or aromatherapy will further increase the powerful effect on your heart’s health.
Give Yourself Better Sleep
Sleep experts say soaking in a hot tub can cause your body to relax enough to drift off into a deeper sleep than normal, improving your sleep quality. Soaking in a hot tub on a daily basis can produce a massaging effect on your balance and center, which can also improve your sleep state, especially for people who deal with insomnia.
Improved Cardiovascular Health
Soaking in a hot tub can also increase your heart rate and lower blood pressure. Health experts say that hot water can improve cardiovascular function and produce better blood flow, which can help lower the risk of heart disease long term.
Reduce Calories
Are you someone who pays attention to your caloric intake? Or are you interested in different exercises that help you burn calories? The good news is soaking in a hot tub helps you burn calories! Studies have shown that hot water soaks have similar effects on your body as a 30-minute walk. While this doesn’t replace your need for regular exercise, it can help you reduce your daily calories by a bit, all while allowing you to relax.
