Manage Stress to Fight Arthritis? – Hot Tubs Ankeny, Portable Spas Ames

Tuesday, May 28th, 2013

Stress is a normal part of life, but too much tension can actually exacerbate arthritis pain by releasing chemicals in the body that trigger inflammation. While swollen and painful joints can be uncomfortable, elevated stress levels can make symptoms practically debilitating. The truth is, stress worsens your pain, making it important to learn a few stress reduction techniques to help restore the body’s natural balance. Here are a few easy ways to manage stress and fight arthritis.

Breathing Exercises - Elevated stress is often accompanied by irregular breathing - that “fight or flight” response which tenses every muscle and joint in the body. In fact, when you react to stress, your muscles become tight, which unfortunately, makes arthritis pain more pronounced. Stress pain and muscle tension lead to a faster heart rate. Taking the time to stop and concentrate on breathing deeply in through the nose and out through the mouth will release some of that tension, easing arthritis pain and minimizing stiffness. Over time, breathing through stress becomes easier and more natural.

Stretching for Relief - The benefits of stretching to relieve stress can be extended to decrease arthritis pain. By elongating the muscles it’s possible to increase range of motion, enhance flexibility and decrease joint stiffness. Movement is one of the best ways to fight joint pain and with the release of endorphins, or the body’s “feel good” receptors, tension and stress fade. Stretching is key for pain relief and healing as increased oxygen and blood flow more easily allowing knotted, stiff and tense areas to relax and heal.

A Relaxing Soak in a Hot Tub - Learning how to relax is one of the most effective ways to control stress. A calming dip in the hot tub will do wonders for pain relief, but as a relaxation technique, nothing compares to the soothing comfort of heated, massaging water to calm the mind and ease the body. Within seconds, heat relaxes tight, sore muscles and joints, which ease tension in the neck, lower back and shoulders. When tension fades, arthritis pain does as well. Using a hot tub regularly is an easy and convenient way to manage stress and feel great.

When arthritis pain is accompanied by elevated stress, even getting out of bed in the morning can be a challenge. Learning strategies for handling stress in a positive, healthy way can reduce pain and discomfort and help you cope more effectively with the demands of the disease.

To help people understand how hydrotherapy can help improve overall health and well-being, we will provide free hot tub test soaks in our 5 locations during the entire month. We want to encourage local consumers to check out the benefits of a relaxing soak in an energy efficient hot tub for themselves.

If you’ve just purchased a hot tub or you’re considering buying one, you’re probably excited to get it home and try it out. And while you’re more than likely familiar with how relaxing, soothing and comforting the warm, massaging water can be, there are probably a few other ways to use your hot tub that you haven’t thought of. Aside from the hydro massage, here are three other ways to use your hot tub that are sure to leave you glad you’re the proud owner of your very own spa.

Stay Connected with Family - Who says having a great time with the kids has to be expensive? With an in-home hot tub, you can plan a regular “family hot tub night” where everyone comes together for conversation, laughter and good times. The warm bubbly water is the perfect environment for relaxing sore muscles, but also, a great way to get everyone together in one place with no distractions. That means no phones, computers or television to interrupt. Time spent with the family in the hot tub is an excellent way to stay connected, and a cost-effective and easy way to make memories.

Maintain Great Health - These days, with busy work schedules and hectic lives, it can be tough to follow a diet and exercise program. In fact, it’s all most of us can do to try to eat a few vegetables or take a short walk after dinner. Luckily, sitting in a hot tub for even twenty minutes can enhance health and fitness by decreasing stress, even promoting weight loss. Heated water relaxes muscles and joints, easing tension and stress instantly, while powerful jets provide targeted massage. Sitting in the tub also raises core body temperature, which has the same effect on the body as light cardiovascular exercise.

Get Rid of That Pain For Good - For the millions of Americans suffering with arthritis or other chronic pain, just getting out of bed in the morning is an agonizing event. A quick soak in the hot tub before morning coffee can decrease stiffness, eliminate aches and make the morning routine less of an event. After a sports injury or a particularly stressful day, using a hot tub for pain relief is quick, easy and convenient.

Nothing is quite as relaxing as the warm, massaging water of a hot tub. For decreasing stress, unwinding after a rough day, or eliminating pain, a soak in the tub is a fabulous way to regenerate. A hot tub is also the ideal environment for reconnecting with family and friends and a super way to maintain great health.

To help people understand how hydrotherapy can help improve overall health and well-being, we will provide free hot tub test soaks in our 5 locations during the entire month. We want to encourage local consumers to check out the benefits of a relaxing soak in an energy efficient hot tub for themselves.

How to Spring Clean Your Romance in 3 Easy Steps – Portable Spas Hopkins, Sauna Sale

Monday, March 25th, 2013

Spring is here, but is your relationship still in the doldrums of winter? How about making a change for the better? If you need to put a little spark back in the romance department, but aren’t sure where to begin, here are three great suggestions for re-igniting the flame and adding magic.

Think Young - Remember how easy it was to have a great time doing just about anything when you were young? Before kids, work pressure or bills, every opportunity was another chance to have fun. While it’s true, we can’t make these responsibilities go away, we can change our mindset. That means embracing the little things and taking advantage of those opportunities to have fun. How about cooking a fantastic meal together or having a “camp out” under the stars, away from the living room? Making more out of everyday opportunities is a great way to reconnect, without having to spend money or investing a lot of time. Sometimes, it’s as simple as taking a walk after dinner or working on a crossword puzzle together.

Be Adventurous - Biologically, men and women respond the same when romantically connected. Studies confirm that when there is a romantic spark, dopamine levels increase in the body. A chemical known to affect emotion, dopamine can easily be elevated by doing something adventurous and couples who experience new things together can increase connectedness. Luckily, you don’t have to hike the Appalachian Trail to get “adventurous” and trying a new restaurant, exploring a nearby town, even starting a new hobby together can be just as effective.

Take Time Out For “Us” in the Hot Tub - No one will deny the need for “me” time, but as a couple, it’s just as important to ensure you’re giving the same amount of attention to the two of you as a couple. An easy and highly effective way to enhance a relationship, while enjoying some well-deserved relaxation, is using a hot tub. Sitting together in warm, massaging water is sensual, peaceful and the perfect way to enjoy one another’s company without cell phones, computers or television. Talking, laughing and reconnecting from the convenience of home is the perfect way to reach out to the one you love and put an end to the stresses of the day.

Every relationship is in need of a little rekindling now and then and luckily there are easy solutions for bringing out the magic. Don’t let opportunities for having fun pass you by. Consider being adventurous and be sure to take full advantage of the opportunity to rejuvenate, relax and refresh from the comforts of home in the warm, bubbly water of the hot tub.

Now that 2013 is here, it’s the perfect time to start thinking about making a few changes leading to improved health and well being. And while proper diet and regular exercise are sure to be at the top of the list, there’s another highly effective and all natural way to realize significant health benefits- the hot tub. Learn how a quick soak in the hot tub a few times a week can leave you looking and feeling better than you have in years. 

Control Type 2 Diabetes - For folks suffering with Type 2 Diabetes, a hot tub offers some relief. Studies confirm consistent use of a hot tub a few times a week actually lowers blood sugar levels and promotes overall well being. The heated water in the tub increases blood flow to the skeletal muscles, but it’s more than that. Sitting in the hot tub actually helps dilate blood vessels, which improves blood flow, helping the body use insulin more effectively.

Enhance Sleep - For millions of Americans, not getting the proper rest leads to a variety of other issues including poor work performance, clumsiness, even weight gain. Sleep is an important time for the body to repair and nourish damaged cells and restore lost energy. Sitting in a hot tub prior to going to bed is one of the most effective- and natural- ways to promote a deep, more restful sleep. Warm, massaging water relaxes muscles and calms the mind, making the transition from awake to sleep easier.

Reduce Stress - Everyone deals with stress at one time or another. Whether it’s work, family or a combination of both, unmanaged stress can lead to depression, anxiety, even illness. Sitting in a hot tub is the perfect way to eliminate stress related pain in the back, neck or shoulders, and an easy way to ease away tension from the day. Massaging jets can be positioned in a variety of different ways to target exactly where stress knots develop while heat relaxes tight, stiff muscles. Twenty minutes three days a week and stress is a thing of the past.

In addition to providing unparalleled relaxation and soothing comfort, the warm bubbly water of a hot tub has tremendous health benefits. Soaking in the tub is an easy and convenient way to promote improved health and fitness in 2013 by helping control type 2 Diabetes, enhancing sleep and reducing stress.

Tuesday, January 22nd, 2013

With a new year upon us, many of us are looking to make improvements to our health and fitness. It could be as simple as dropping a few pounds or stressing less. Maybe it’s finally taking the time to think seriously about health and fitness and taking proactive steps to feel and look better. Whatever the goal, it’s time to say hello to a new and improved you- and with a little help from the hot tub, it’s easier than ever.

Eliminate Stress - It doesn’t matter if you’re a high powered CEO or a stay at home mom, stress affects all of us at one time or another. But not managing stress is the easiest way to start having health problems- high blood pressure, depression, weight gain, even a lack of sleep are all complements of elevated stress levels. Luckily, sitting in the hot tub a few times a week is a natural way to more effectively manage stress. With targeted massage and warm water, tension fades away, leaving the mind and body refreshed and rejuvenated.

Enhance a Weight Loss Plan - Believe it or not, it’s possible to soak your way to improved fitness. Sitting in the heated water of a hot tub has the same affect on your body as light cardiovascular exercise, without doing damage to muscles or joints. The body burns calories because you use energy to lower internal heat. And as heat rises, you burn calories trying to cool down. For folks who have trouble with physical activity but still want the cardiovascular benefits, a hot tub is the perfect solution. 

Get the Sleep You Need to Be Your Best - Insomnia affects millions of people worldwide and as most of us already know, inadequate sleep negatively impacts our health and performance. By making a quick dip in the hot tub part of a nightly routine, you can improve not only the quantity of sleep, but the quality of sleep as well.  Relaxing before bed in the warm bubbly water gives your mind and body the chance to slow down and rest, making the transition from awake to sleep more natural. You fall asleep easier and stay asleep longer- a perfect combination for feeling alert and well rested in the morning.

With a new and improved you on the horizon, it’s never been a better time to start taking proactive steps to improve health and fitness. Start by adding a hot tub to your routine for stress relief, a jump start on weight loss and as the perfect way to get more of the sleep you need to look and feel your best.
