“April is Stress Awareness Month, an appropriate time to help people deal with the stress they may have in their lives,” says Jason Rounds, General Manager. While it is unlikely that people can remove all stress from their lives, they can do a lot about how it affects them.

Here are three ways to help people cope with stress.

It’s Not Personal
Keep in mind that most of the things that stress us out in daily life are just a matter of routine. It isn’t personal. Bills aren’t attacking you, and traffic isn’t piled up to keep us from getting to our appointments on time. Learn to let things go and accept things that happen.

State It Clearly
Instead of going about silently expecting things to work out a certain way, let others know what is going on. Most people go about their lives focused on what they need to accomplish at any given moment and are unaware when even someone very close to them is experiencing difficulties. So, talk to coworkers and family members about what’s going on to cause the feeling of distress.

Make Home Peaceful
Play soft music, dim the lighting, or best of all, get a hot tub. Hot tubs create a soothing environment that melts away the stress just thinking about slipping into the invitingly warm water. They are available in many sizes and can fit anywhere, even in small spaces.

Communication is a crucial aspect in controlling stress, and a hot tub is a perfect way to have conversations in a tension-free environment. It is also a great way to enjoy the company of friends who will be happy to visit and share the delights of the comforting water.

Consumers wanting to learn more about hot tubs are encouraged to pick up a copy of their free buyer’s guide. Just call 952-933-9040 or visit the company website for more information at Used Hot Tubs Burnsville.

With travel restrictions in place, why not take a vacation at home! The ‘staycation’ is quickly becoming the trend for families; it’s relaxing at home and getting away without leaving home.

Here are three ways to enjoy downtime with an amazing hot tub at home.

Banish Boredom with a Fun Soak
When the kids start to get antsy, grab the swimsuits. Soaking with the family is a heart healthy, fun activity that can stop the boredom in its tracks. Quality spas can be equipped with television screens and surround sound for an amazing movie night under the stars.

Take 20 Minutes for Some Spa Effortless Pampering
A luxurious spa in the backyard means anytime relaxation and personal massage, right from home! Better than a professional, your hot tub functions as your personal masseuse, day or night!

Unplug to Strengthen Relationships
Make the most of a new situation by gathering everyone together for some down time in the hot tub. A hot tub at home is the perfect space for open conversation, laughter and the kind of communication that busy families often neglect.

So Go Ahead, Take a Soak, You Deserve it!
It’s, fast, fun and relaxing. Not only that, it’s good for the body, soothes the mind and can improve your overall health and well-being.

Millions of people have sleep disorders due to stress, tension, or pain. With soothing heat and massage, using a spa before bed can change your life.

Here’s how a relaxing dip in the hot tub each night can lead to restorative sleep.

Get Rid of Unhealthy Stress
Whether we realize it or not, most of us carry a good deal of stress and tension making it tough to sleep. The targeted massage of a spa gives the body permission to unwind naturally, without relying on medication.

Elevated Heat Promotes Relaxation
Slip into the warm water of a hot tub and elevated heat raises core body temperature making it easy for the body to relax. Then, exit the tub and temperature drops, encouraging drowsiness.

Buoyancy Relieves Pressure on Joints
Even without a chronic condition, muscles and joints can become fatigued from daily use. Slip into the hot tub and buoyancy takes pressure and strain off joints instantly and relief is felt for hours afterward.

So Go Ahead, Take a Soak, You Deserve it!
It’s, fast, fun and relaxing. Not only that, it’s good for the body, soothes the mind and can improve your overall health and well-being.

The post 3 Ways a Dip in the Hot Tub Can Boost Healthy Sleep, Used Spas Arnolds Park appeared first on Hot Spring Green.

Do you love to travel? If you’re like most people, you look forward to those few days a year when you can take a break from the worries and commitments of daily life and experience something new. But sometimes jetting off to an exotic destination or even taking a weekend road trip, just isn’t possible, especially during a pandemic. When that happens, the best we can do is try to experience the best things about vacation, without leaving home. It’s easier than you might think!

We did an informal poll, and asked people around the office what they enjoyed most about traveling. Here are some of the reasons they came up with:

•  Getting refreshed and revitalized
•  Having dedicated time to spend with your partner and kids
•  Socialization with friends
•  Time to reflect on your short and long-term goals
•  Appreciation of nature and you surroundings
•  Prioritizing pleasure over work and other not-so-fun obligations

With a little creativity, you can enjoy many of these same benefits at home. With a Hot Spring spa at home, wellness, happiness, and connection is as close as your own backyard.

Not quite convinced? This chart compares the overall wellness benefits of a hot tub versus a vacation.

	Hot Tub	Vacation
Enjoyment Frequency	Many Hot Spring customers make “spa time” part of their daily routine. Even when used daily, a high-quality hot tub can last 15 to 20 years or longer with proper maintenance.	One to two-week duration once yearly. Memories can last a lifetime, although the experience itself is short.
Wellness	Daily or at least weekly opportunities for revitalizing massage, meditation, connection and socialization with family, friends and neighbors leads to an increased sense of well being.	Awesome for the one- to two-week period, but over quickly.
Socialization/ Community	Consistent opportunity to invite family, friends and neighbors to connect in a pleasant, natural setting.	Family and friends can join up on vacation. Great, but short-lived, fun. Out-of-pocket costs for all participants. Logistics can be a hassle for the organizer.
Connection to Loved Ones	It’s tough to bring a smartphone, tablet or television into the tub. The burble of the bubbles fills in silences, giving soakers opportunities to discuss matters at their leisure.	Good opportunity to connect in stimulating new settings if friends and family members take out the headphones, put down the phones and stop to enjoy the experience.
Dedicated Relaxation	A hot tub can serve as your personal reset button, helping you melt away mental and physical tension. And since it’s in your own back yard, you can enjoy revitalization every day!	Opportunities to recharge, but also pressure to take advantage of everything the location has to offer; landmarks, museums, hikes, shows, athletic adventures, restaurants and more.
Meditation / Reflection time	There is nothing like warm water and jets to help you access the subconscious and reflect on your emotional and physical wellness. A practice of daily meditation is proven to make you happier over your lifetime.	Vacation brings a clear-eyed perspective back home. It also provides the necessary distance to re-evaluate goals and determine what matters. The problem is that resolutions discovered while away can be lost in frenetic home life.
Time in Nature	Regular time in your outdoor hot tub helps you tune into the beauty of nature from your own backyard. This awareness helps you feel part of a greater world, a notion that eases stress and improves happiness.	Visiting dramatic places like Yosemite or Big Sur can be life changing.

For an experience that leads to happiness, vitality, and connection, the hot tub wins over a vacation, hands down. A glance at our reviews illustrate the fact that hot tubbing is a popular backyard activity for families, empty nesters, athletes – just about anyone!

There will be time again someday to hop on a plane or take the kids to a theme park. In the meantime, your local Hot Spring Spas dealer can help you establish your own backyard retreat, where wellness, comfort, and connection are always available!

A great night’s sleep is a wonderful thing, yet getting the restorative rest you need to be your best isn’t always easy. Why struggle when there’s an all-natural alternative?

Here’s how to soak your way to restful sleep with a hot tub at home.

Massage Away Pain
When muscles and joints hurt, it’s not easy to get comfortable. A quick soak in the hot tub delivers customized, soothing massage that pushes heated streams of water directly at stiff, sore limbs. Within just a few minutes, a soak in the spa relieves pain, helping you drift off effortlessly.

Eliminate Stress, Promote Relaxation
When the mind is overactive and can’t relax, the body can’t either, resulting in poor sleep. Using a hot tub 30 minutes before bed is a smart way to promote relaxation, physically and mentally. With regular use, a spa’s serene environment calms the mind and eliminates tension in the neck, shoulders and back.

Hot Tub Hydrotherapy
Health care and wellness experts cite the benefits of hot tub hydrotherapy for controlling insomnia. Submerging the entire body in heated, massaging water releases endorphins, alleviating stress and creating a feeling of tranquility that helps you drift off peacefully and stay asleep longer.

So Go Ahead, Take a Soak, You Deserve it!
It’s, fast, fun and relaxing. Not only that, it’s good for the body, soothes the mind and can improve your overall health and well-being.

To encourage local residents to check out the benefits of using a hot tub to help improve their overall health and well-being, Hot Spring Spas is providing free test soaks at all our showrooms. We do recommend, however, that people wanting to schedule their free 30-minute soak call us ahead of time to reserve their spot.

The post Soak Your Way to Restful Sleep Using a Backyard Spa, Hot Tub Dealer Woodbury, Plymouth appeared first on Hot Spring Green.

Does the weather stop you from enjoying your home hot tub? Perhaps the snow or rain disrupt your plans to walk out into the yard and relax in the warm water. One of the greatest joys of owning a hot tub is warming up in the water throughout the winter months—when you can make it happen. Maybe it’s the hot sun that overwhelms you during your daily soak. Regardless of the season, don’t let unexpected weather forecasts or season-long extremes get in the way of your well-deserved hydrotherapy.

A hot tub enclosure may be just the thing to resist the elements and allow you to enjoy the warmth and massaging jets of your spa all year round, whatever the weather may bring.

Your first step is to consult with an expert who can point you in the direction of your building, plumbing, and electrical needs. A hot tub enclosure can provide long-term shelter and enjoyment but only if done carefully and correctly. Turn to expert contractors for up-to-code construction and a spa enclosure that is specifically suited to your home.

WHAT DO TEMPORARY HOT TUB ENCLOSURES HAVE TO OFFER?

When you’re searching for a hot tub enclosure, one of the first things you’re likely to come across are temporary options. These are typically lightweight structures that snap or bolt together and are covered with a waterproof cloth. Temporary enclosures provide shade, but as they’re usually open-sided, they do not provide much protection from the wind or other elements. In cases of extreme weather, you may need to pack up these temporary hot tub enclosures to avoid damage.

A spa side umbrella may be a better choice if you’re looking for shade and minimal shelter. It is a less-expensive option than a temporary hot tub enclosure, and it is anchored by a steel plate that slides beneath the spa. It is more solid than temporary structures held down by stakes, and you can easily put it into storage in cases of severe weather.

A spa side umbrella can shield you from the sun and light rain. If you’re looking for an all-season hot tub enclosure, you may need something more permanent that fully surrounds the hot tub.

A Covana automated gazebo cover is another great option. They are completely automated gazebos which offer you maximum comfort, safety and intimacy. You can order them with different backdrops or shades. In the turn of a key your hot tub or swim spa can turn itself from a locked down cover to a beautiful gazebo for privacy.

BUILDING HOT TUB ENCLOSURES TO RESIST THE WEATHER

For year-round protection of your hot tub space, your options include pre-made structures or enclosures and additions built precisely for your needs. Pre-made hot tub enclosures range from bolt-together structures of metal or plastic with windows and screens to kits that include everything to construct a free-standing building in your yard. Home additions are more permanent solutions, but they give you the flexibility to customize your hot tub enclosure.

Whatever you decide is the best hot tub enclosure for you, remember that all work should be done by a qualified contractor, electrician (Iowa’s preferred), or plumber with the skills to do the job. You want to relax safely and comfortably for the long term while enjoying everything your hot tub enclosure has to offer, so be sure that it’s built correctly and to code.

Here are some very important things to keep in mind before you build:

• The foundation of any hot tub enclosure is critical. A permanent enclosure will stand outside all year long, and how well it is grounded will determine how well it resists the weather.

• A hot tub enclosure must provide enough space to be safely wired. When wiring a 240 volt hot tub, you’ll need to be aware of special code requirements. This includes a GFCI switch that must be at least five feet away but clearly visible from the hot tub.

• Ventilation for the steam that comes from the hot tub. The warm water from a spa creates a lot of humidity, which can collect on the inside of your room or other enclosure. To avoid related complications, it’s important to ensure that your hot tub enclosure has adequate ventilation. We’ll discuss steps to installing proper ventilation below.

Prefabricated hot tub enclosures must be large enough to accommodate safe electrical requirements. And they may have limited flexibility for wiring, ventilation, and other fixtures. But this might be the right choice if you’re looking for a less-than-permanent option.

Home additions and from-scratch structures may offer more customizability when checking off the necessary foundational, electrical, and ventilation requirements. And you may have many creative and flexible options to adapt a hot tub enclosure. An uncovered patio can be easily roofed over. The posts that hold up this roof can be framed in to create a wall for more complete shelter. Often, a power outlet is already available for you to plug in a hot tub. If you’re planning to wire your spa directly to the home’s power, then this lead is already in place and an electrician can change it to run at 240 volts and place the GFCI in a safe location. Powering a ventilation fan is also easier when the connections are already there.

ENSURING PROPER VENTILATION FOR YOUR HOT TUB ENCLOSURE

One of the most important things to be aware of is ventilation—whether you’re dealing with a hot tub enclosure, a home addition, or putting your hot tub in a basement. The high humidity your hot tub creates can be damaging to these structures.

In a warm environment, you can open the windows of your hot tub enclosure after you are done using your hot tub and let the steam out. In the middle of a cold winter, this is probably not a good solution because the water can simply freeze to the interior surfaces of the enclosure. Conversely, in a humid environment like Florida or the southeast, opening up the windows will not help because the environment outside may have more moisture than the interior.

A powered ventilation system is the key to a truly all-season hot tub enclosure. These are inexpensive and available at any home improvement store. They mount directly over the hot tub or in an exterior wall of the hot tub enclosure to allow the venting of excess moisture with the flip of a switch. An expert building contractor will be able to determine the best ventilation solution for your home and your best hot tub experience.

When you’ve taken the necessary precautions, a hot tub enclosure gives you the opportunity to relax and soak regardless of the weather conditions outside. In winter, you can marvel at the way snow smooths over the imperfections you normally see. In the pouring rain, you can relax while listening to your hot tub playlists or to the rain on the roof. The secret is simply to build a hot tub enclosure the right way and to match it with a hot tub that is well-built and equally reliable.

HYDROTHERAPY – WHAT IS IT?

In its basic form, hydrotherapy is a type of warm or cold water massage that helps relieve pain. Hydrotherapy uses the temperature and pressure of water to offer relief from symptoms. While hydrotherapy can take many forms, often it uses under water jetted massage (as in a hot tub).

WHEN WAS HYDROTHERAPY INVENTED?

Hydrotherapy dates back to Ancient Greece. Hippocrates documented his early use of hydrotherapy and referred to the treatment as hydropathy. The Greeks were not the only people to use hydrotherapy. Hydrotherapy was also used by the Ancient Chinese, Roman, and Egyptian civilizations. Hydrotherapy gained popularity over time and came to the United States in the 1840s. Hydrotherapy has evolved in the United States, and now encompasses many different forms. People love hydrotherapy so much that they even started using it to treat their dogs. Today there are even canine hydrotherapy facilities across the country.

HOW IS HYDROTHERAPY PRACTICED?

There are many techniques that people use to enjoy hydrotherapy benefits. A simple and common technique is the use of a cold or hot compress for muscle pain, headaches, or fevers. Wraps, like compresses, involve wrapping a water soaked sheet around a part of the body. A second layer of towels or hot blankets added to the wrap can treat anything from a fever to skin disorders. Hot tubs and spas are a huge part of hydrotherapy practices and offer many benefits. The hot water helps relieve sore muscles, and sports-related injuries. It may provide temporary relief for arthritis symptoms. The jet streams help ease other types of symptoms, including emotional or mental stress. Hot tubs are a great way to enjoy hydrotherapy benefits at home. When a person’s body is completely submerged in water, they have a weightless feeling.. This relief from the pressure of gravity gives muscles and joints a respite from pain. Exercising in water also takes this concept of weightlessness and applies it to activity. Water based exercise reduces pressure on joints and muscles.

WHAT ARE THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF HYDROTHERAPY?

At its most basic level, hydrotherapy can help relieve stress and assist people to relax and let go of worry. Hydrotherapy also reduces aches and pains including sore muscles, and joint stiffness.

Some hydrotherapy benefits may include:

• increase blood flow in the body

• reduce aches and pains of sore muscles

• relieve joint stiffness

• ease common cold symptoms (clearing airways)

• assist with issues related to hypertension

• relief from headaches

Hydrotherapy is a long, storied practice that can assist people in many ways. One of the easiest ways to practice hydrotherapy is to bring a hot tub into your own home and use it daily. Hot tubs are one of the most common ways to reap the wellness benefits of hydrotherapy!
