Your hot tub or spa is a wonderful place to relax your cares
away, but it is also a great exercise partner as well. After a
strenuous workout, hydrotherapy increases the blood flow to carry
lactic acid away from the muscles more quickly, which helps repair
rejuvenate and strengthen muscles.
Exercising in water is an excellent way to improve flexibility an
strength. Water exercise is easier on your body since the water
lessens the pull of gravity on your body. Movements become gentle
and easy flowing as you work against the water’s natural resistance.
Some spas are specifically made for exercise use. If you wish to
exercise in your spa or hot tub, be sure to lower the temperature to
80 degrees. Before beginning any exercise program, consult your
physician.
