Hot Tubs Portable Spa Arthritis Benefits
One in three Americans or 70 million people has some form of arthritis. There are over 100 different kinds of arthritis and most are characterized by inflammation of the joints causing swelling, pain and stiffness, often resulting in loss of joint movement or function. These are the types of arthritis that can really be helped through the use of hot tubs and spas.
Many people affected by arthritis have turned to hot tubs to seek relief through soaking in the warm, soothing hot tub waters. Hot tubs provide the warmth, massage, safety and buoyancy required to relax or exercise joints and muscles right in the convenience and comfort of your own backyard. Relaxed muscles create an overall enhanced feeling of comfort which can then make it easier for the body to perform exercises and carry out daily tasks. The Arthritis Foundation recommends that warm water exercise in a swim spa will “keep joints moving, improve coordination & endurance, restore and preserve flexibility & strength, and protect joints against further damage.” The Arthritis Foundation also provides a useful guide for purchasing a hot tub.
If you know someone who is affected by the pain and discomfort of arthritis, hot tubs might bring the relief they need. Hottubs are the ultimate way to soothe stiff, sore muscles and joints through relaxing Hydrotherapy hot tub jets. |
