It’s true, not many of us look for ten reasons to indulge in life’s little luxuries and it doesn’t get much more luxurious than being able to enjoy a spa-like experience in your very own bathroom.

At Trade Plumbing, as retailers of a wide range of spa and whirlpool baths, we thought that is was only right that we took some time out of our day to shout about some of the health benefits of taking one of these baths.

Cardiovascular Health & Circulation

Whirlpool Baths & Spa Baths help kick-start the process of dilating blood vessels. This process increases the blood flow throughout the body, delivering oxygen and enzymes into areas of pain and swelling. The hot water in spa baths also increases your heart rate, whilst lowering your blood pressure. Elevated heart rates also keep the heart working harder, helping it to stay healthy.

Aches & Pains

The high-pressure jets and massaging effects of Whirlpool & Spa Baths can aid in sore muscle recovery and joint pain relief. Whilst hot water engulfs your body and helps loosen tight and strained muscles, high-pressure water targets tense muscles, relaxing them and helping you move more freely. During this time, stretching can help improve flexibility. These attributes make Spa Baths and Whirlpool Baths perfect for athletes, those involved in manual labour, and those in a certain age group.

Stresses & Sleep

Regular users of Spa & Whirlpool Baths report feeling relaxed and enjoying a sense of wellbeing. The sensation of warm, massaging water enters the body into a state of deep relaxation, which means there are fewer better things to do than jump straight into a nice cosy bed after a relaxing bath.

High water temperature also raises your body temperature and relaxes your muscles, helping you switch off and sleep better.

Arthritis

Soaking in Saltwater has long been documented as a method of dealing with the symptoms and pain of Arthritis. The reason is simple, a body immerse in water loses almost 90% of its weight and for those who suffer from arthritis, this encourages and allows the free movement of joints without the pain of supporting the body’s weight. When you add soothing and invigorating air jets into the mix, it’s no wonder that many studies have recommended whirlpool and spa baths as a coping mechanism for those with Arthritis.

Weight Loss & Diabetes

Yes, we agree – it does sound too good to be true, but sitting in a Spa Bath can help you lose weight as part of a healthy eating plan. Amazingly, studies have also shown that half an hour a day in a Spa Bath can also help control diabetes. The reason is quite simple, Spa Baths mimic the effects of exercise, which is known to reduce the need for insulin.
