Relaxation and Other Benefits of Hydrotherapy

Sunday, February 12th, 2012

The “Secret” of Many Healthy, Happy People

hot tub benefits - hydrotherapy

Why do some of the busiest people begin each day seemly refreshed and with a “bubbly” attitude? How do active people stay on the go even when they have minor aches and pains? Could it be that these people have discovered the benefits of hot tub hydrotherapy?


Warm water, or “hydro” therapy can promote relaxation, stress reduction and pain relief. Hot tubs are recognized for delivering soothing and stimulating hydrotherapy. The warm water and massage elements of a hot tub can clear your mind, reduce stress, and soothe overworked muscles. Heat, buoyancy and massage work together in hot tubs to bring about hydrotherapy benefits. Heat improves circulation and warms muscles and joints. Buoyancy lifts the pressure of weight from joints and muscles. Hydrotherapy massage stimulates muscles healing and soothes soreness, which also helps to ease arthritic pain surrounding joints. By facilitating the removal of lactic acid and encouraging the flow of endorphins, those with injuries and muscle pain also benefit from hydrotherapy.

The benefits of hydrotherapy include:
   • Relaxation
   • Pre-sports warm up
   • Targeted pain relief
   • Improved sleep habits

Whether you’re juggling work and family, recovering from a joint or muscle injury, or simply needing to unwind from the day’s stresses, hot tub therapy provides relaxation, healing effects, and nourishing rejuvenation. In addition, a hot tub is a natural place to get together with family and friends, so you could say that better communication and having fun socializing are benefits of hydrotherapy.

Hot Tub Maintenance: How Do I Keep the Water Clean?

hot tub maintenance - water

Submerging in crystal clear water is exactly what you want. Some chemicals will be necessary to achieve clean water, but you can significantly reduce the use of chemicals in several ways.

Professional retailers and hot tub manufacturers most often recommend choosing a hot tub with an advanced filtration system, purchasing an optional ozone purifier with your hot tub, and using mineral purifiers in conjunction with chemical-based sanitizers. Maintenance is simple, and you can get instructions and start-up information from knowledgeable dealers. Manufacturers often recommend draining and cleaning your hot tub three or four times per year, depending on how frequently you use it and how well you maintain your water.

Not only is water maintenance simple, it takes a lot less time than most people think – typically less than 10 minutes a week! Your authorized Jacuzzi Hot Tubs dealer can supply you with all the information, supplies, and accessory products you will need.

Backyard Hot Tub Style

Taking it Easy With a Hot Tub

backyard hot tub

Backyards, decks and patios — much of it is about relaxing, which is why hot tubs fit in so well. Let’s assume that you’re just thinking about adding a hot tub, here are some tips.

Start with the basics:

Don’t just think about summer; plan on using your hot tub throughout the year. Plant seasonal flowers, move furniture, or add a spa umbrella when the seasons change. Of course, in some climates, flowers and winter just don’t go together. If that’s the case, consider plants in containers that can be moved as an alternative. Also, keep in mind that even bare branches can add beauty to a winter landscape, and could enhance the night if strung with tiny white lights! Or, consider integrating other items, such as rocks, fountains, and statues.

Backyards for beginners.

If you didn’t grow up gardening, or feel that you just don’t have a green thumb, you may be intimidated by the idea of taking care of a yard, not to mention planning how it’s going to look.

Getting started.

Plan for or around the hardscape — masonry work, woodwork, patios, decks, wooden arbors, that is anything permanent or built-in. (Plants, shrubs, lawn are considered softscape). A hot tub should be thought of as hardscape, especially if you’re planning to surround it with decking.

Most backyards are organized by a few strong elements, like a green grassy lawn, rows of hedges, a patio or deck for entertaining. Start with these dominant features, and also decide how you will get to and from different areas. Then fill in the blanks with seasonal plants, furniture, and so on!

Need a hot tub landscaping idea? Don’t be afraid to copy what you like. Flip through some backyard magazines for ideas. Or, get inspired by our video of real-life Jacuzzi® hot tub installations. However you go about it, when you see something you like, consider adapting the idea for your backyard.

Thinking About Buying an Outdoor Hot Tub?

Winter is a Great Time to Buy

outdoor hot tub

More often than you might imagine, people think about purchasing outdoor hot tubs in the wintertime when retailers offer great deals and home owners can take advantage of the cool, crisp air to enjoy their outdoor hot tub. Many people start thinking about purchasing an outdoor hot tub in early spring in order to have one installed and ready to use in time for summer. A Jacuzzi® outdoor spa is great for summer parties, but during the cold months of the year, a warm-water hydromassage is ideal for both therapy and relaxation.

The benefits of Jacuzzi hot tub hydrotherapy may be even greater when the temperature drops. Most people, myself included, tend to be less active and spend more time indoors when it’s cold outside. With a Jacuzzi outdoor spa, you can get outside, and stretch and relax in the comfort of the warm water of your hot tub.

Jacuzzi’s energy efficient outdoor hot tubs also help save on operating costs in winter. Models are equipped with advanced control panels that can be programmed for cold-weather energy-efficient settings, and the optional factory-installed SmartSeal™ insulation (available on J-400™ and J-300™ Collection models) holds in heat to further reduce energy consumption.

Those who wish to “wet test” a water-filled hot tub before purchasing can do so year ‘round at many Jacuzzi dealers’ showrooms. Local Jacuzzi dealers are experts on how to care for outdoor hot tubs and they are the best source for information about special financing and other offers.

Jacuzzi hot tub owners who live in cold climates use their outdoor hot tubs at home all winter. After outdoor activities, the hydrotherapy in outdoor hot tubs is great for recovering faster, improving circulation, increasing energy levels, and promoting a good night’s sleep.

Should I close my hot tub for the winter?

Tuesday, February 7th, 2012

So you’re not going to use your hot tub this winter, huh? That’s too bad! We think the wintertime with its cold temperatures is a GREAT time to be hot-tubbing. But we understand that if you’re going away or really not going to use it, you might want to save energy throughout the cold months. Jump to the bottom of this post for our suggestions & opinion on winterization or check out our post: To Winterize or NOT to Winterize

We were recently asked a great question about hot-tubbing in the wintertime:

My hot tub won’t go below 80 degrees F, but I would like to save energy over the winter and run it cooler without shutting it off. Can it be reprogrammed? 

The difference in cost in running your hot tub at 80 degrees vs. 100 degrees throughout the winter is pennies, if that. As long as you have the cover on your hot tub, the heat has no where to go and it maintains a nice warm, toasty temperature. The energy will not burn off from the hot tub.

We don’t suggest keeping your hot tub at a low temperature during the cold months for a few reasons:

  1. If the power goes out to your hot tub or home, your hot tub only has 50 degrees to get to freezing if it’s set at 80. At 100, it would take a lot longer to freeze
  2. What if you decide you want to use your spa in the winter? It will take more energy & use of your heater to get the tub from 80 to 100 in a few hours than if you just kept it at 100 and ready to use at a moments notice! 

So what do you do if you want to save energy in the winter.?

You could have your hot tub winterized. During the winterization process we drain the hot tub completely & suck all the water from the plumbing in your spa. But, in our opinion, the cost of the hot tub winterization negates the energy savings over the cold months because our hot tubs are so energy efficient.

We only really recommend winterization if you’re going to be away during the winter or are leaving your hot tub empty for more than just one season!

But then again, we’re really biased because we just LOVE Hot-tubbing in the wintertime!
