Does a Hot Tub help relieve stress?

At some point in our lives all of us will experience stress of some kind.  There are different triggers for stress and different people handle this in different ways.  Everybody will have a small amount of stress in their lives, and in small amounts this isn’t really deemed as being a problem.  When you have a very stressful life or stress builds up on you over time, this can become a serious issue and can have negative impacts on your general health and wellbeing.

Stress can be easily overlooked as something everybody has, but it is important to recognise the signs of excess stress and make changes in your life to relax and make sure this doesn’t get on top of you.  This is why we support International Stress Awareness Week, from 1st to the 5th November 2021.

This is a great way to raise awareness and ensure you are not letting the effects of stress negatively impact your life.

The governments HSE program describe the main symptoms of stress as being

  • Mood swings
  • Being withdrawn
  • Loss of motivation or commitment
  • Increased emotional reactions
  • Become twitchy and nervous

Be sure to look out for these signs in your friends and family and help bring awareness to the negative impacts of stress and look at making positive changes for a more relaxed and calm life.

How to relieve stress?

Taking care of your physical and mental wellbeing is so important. Stress can be a major factor in causing muscle tension, which can lead to further physical pains and in turn cause even more stress. It is a well-known fact that hydrotherapy can be an amazing way to help, with Hot Tubs having multiple benefits that can help with your physical and mental lifestyle.

BISHTA (the British and Irish Spa & Hot Tub Association) report that Hot Tubs can give the following health and wellness benefits:

  • Lower blood pressure
  • Stress relief
  • Ease muscular pain
  • Allow relaxation
  • Relieve joint pain

Creating your own little sanctuary at home with your own Hot Tub can give you the perfect space to relax, let go of your stress and allow the hydrotherapy jets go to work.  With the Bluetooth Speakers playing your calming tunes and the LED Mood lighting set to give you a calming soothing atmosphere to relax in whilst the high-power jets go to work massaging away all of that built up tension.
