How a Hot Tub Can Improve Mood & Mindset

Anyone who owns a hot tub spa will be the first to admit that they offer a wide range of health and wellness benefits.  From easing the strain of tense muscles and stiff joints, to improved sleep and more youthful flexibility, the benefits are as diverse as they are essential to a healthy life.  One that often goes overlooked is the positive effect that hot tubs have on a person's day to day mood.  Based on years of research, it's clear that there is much to be gained by adding a hot tub spa to your wellness routine.

Let's take a closer look at some of the most substantial ways in which owning a hot tub can be beneficial in promoting and supporting a more consistent positive mood.

Promotes Relaxation & Stress Relief

We'll begin with the most obvious, as while it's known that hot tubs are relaxing.  However, there's a lot going on at the biological level that most people don't notice.  There's a direct connection between the proteins and amino acids used to make muscle tissue, and the brain, which relies heavily on healthy, functioning neurotransmitters.  When a person is in a state of chronic stress, the entire body suffers.  It's one of the reasons why those with depression report feeling sore.  Hot tub therapy can ease the muscles and promote better delivery of the protein neurotransmitters needed to encourage a healthy mindset.

Increased Endorphin Release

Endorphins such as dopamine, serotonin and norepinephrine all play a key role in how happy or unhappy a person will be.  It's been suggested that the mere act of relaxing can help trigger the production and utilization of these mood-supporting chemicals.  Many people who own hot tub spas report improved sleep patterns, more energy during the day and an increased ability to handle busy routines and daily stressors.

More Efficient Nutrient Delivery

Few realize that we are literally at the mercy of the nutrients we take in each day.  When they are missing from the diet, or unable to be delivered to the organ system in question, the body responds by borrowing them from other tissues.  This creates a dangerous cycle that can quickly lead to nutrient deficiency, low energy, weakness and of course, mental stress.  Many studies have demonstrated that hot tub use promotes increased circulation, which allows nutrients to be more efficiently utilized throughout the body, including the nutrient-demanding cognitive centers.
