There may be a chill in the air, but we still believe that the best time of year to use your hot tub is all year!
As the temperatures drop and the days grow shorter, we feel there is a certain magic to soaking in your hot tub in winter and love to see the steam rise from the bubbling water in the cold winter air!
If you’re not quite sure about braving the winter to enjoy your hot tub, let us convince you. Here are some of our favourite reasons for enjoying your hot tub in the winter months.
Relief from winter aches and pains
If you find that the winter chill seems to exacerbate aches and pains in your joints, or you find that conditions such as arthritis flare at this time of year, your hot tub can be a huge help. Warm water has natural healing powers, and combined with aqua therapy from the Jacuzzi hot tub jets, can be effective in easing inflammation around the joints, helping to ease stiffness and promote better movement and function. During the coldest time of year, your hot tub can offer great pain relief.
Say goodbye to your winter sniffles
If you are tired of experiencing a runny nose and blocked sinuses, using your hot tub in winter can be a great help. Did you know that breathing in the steam from your hot tub is a natural and effective way to help banish a winter cold? For a helping hand, you can even add aromatherapy scents to the water.
Stay warm
Soaking in your hot tub is a great way to stay warm, provided that you keep the water temperature above body temperature. The walk back into the warmth of your home is worth it when you consider the many benefits of enjoying your hot tub.
Relieve stress and raise your mood
15 to 30 minutes in your hot tub at the end of the day not only helps to relax your body, it can help to clear your mind and stop you from dwelling on the stresses of the day. Spending time in your hot tub can also help to relax your breathing, improve your blood flow and increase the your levels of dopamine and serotonin, your happy hormones.
Sleep better
If you have trouble sleeping, whatever time of year it is, spending time in a warm hot tub an hour or so before bed helps to tell your body it is time to rest. The warm water helps to gradually increase your body temperature, so when you get out, your body naturally enters a cooling phase. These temperature fluctuations mimic the way our body temperature changes during an REM sleep cycle, helping you to get the rest you need.
Enjoy the end of the year and welcome the new year in comfort!
By feeling the above benefits of using your hot tub in the winter months, you’ll be able to end the year on a positive note and start the new year in the same mindset. You could even welcome in the new year in your hot tub, gazing at the stars (and fireworks) as 2023 starts!
