Loads of Vitamin C, chicken soup, cold and flu medication — these are the things that many of us turn to when we are feeling under the weather with a cold. But there’s another alternative. Did you know that using a Jacuzzi® can help you fight a cold? It’s true. Hot tubs have certain health benefits. Jacuzzis are not just for relaxing, although they can certainly be used for that too. Beyond that, they are good for your health. With that in mind, here’s a look at how your Jacuzzi can help you fight that nasty cold.
A Place to Relax
As mentioned, using a Jacuzzi is a great and easy way to relax. And we all know that fitting in some much-needed relaxation is a good way to kick a cold and start feeling better. Many Jacuzzi models are specifically designed with special features like therapeutic lounge seats that make relaxing even easier. If you are able to relax and really feel like you soaked up some down time, chances are your cold will be gone faster than it would be if you didn’t fit time in to relax.
Get Rid of Body Aches
We have all experienced the body aches that accompany a hard-core cold. As it turns out, a Jacuzzi can help get rid of those aches and pains. The jets and hydromassage features in Jacuzzi spas help relieve muscle tension through their massaging action. So, spend some time in your Jacuzzi, and soon enough you will be saying goodbye to the body aches that come along with having a cold.
Decrease Congestion
In addition to the runny nose that comes along with a bad cold, there is that constant feeling of congestion and not being able to breathe freely. And we all know that is incredibly unpleasant. Being around moist air and inhaling steam are natural ways to help with congestion. Steam is emitted from a spa’s hot water, so this is another effective way that Jacuzzis can help you fight a nasty cold. Soaking in a Jacuzzi will help loosen congestion, which helps clear out nasal passages. After sitting in your Jacuzzi’s steam for a little while, breathing becomes easier.
Get Better Rest
Using water to heal and improve your health is known as hydrotherapy. Incorporating regular hydrotherapy into your daily life contributes to a healthier overall well-being and helps with sleep. Sleeping is not always the easiest thing to do when you’ve got a bad cold, but getting a good night’s sleep allows your body to recover more quickly. A reduced stress level can also help you feel healthier. Bask in all the hydrotherapy you can get by soaking in your Jacuzzi hot tub.
