Personal Wellness Tips: Home Hot Tub Edition

Friday, July 12th, 2024

 

This originally appeared on hotspring.com and has been edited for clarity.

 

Improving wellness doesn’t have to involve tedious treadmills, endless salads, and hours of meditation. Sometimes the best thing to do for yourself is nothing. When you unplug, unwind, and simply relax, you can free yourself from distraction, reduce anxiety, and calm the mind. After all, the mental aspect of wellness is every bit as important as the physical.

 

This is why owning a hot tub can provide such a big boost to your overall personal wellness. You can take time every morning or evening to relax and recharge your mind while relieving physical tension throughout the body. But there are other benefits to hot tub health. Whether you want to relieve stress or soothe aching joints, here are four tips for using a hot tub to improve your wellness.

 

1. Use Your Hot Tub Regularly

The secret to improving overall well-being is to make health a habit. Start by making a hot tub soak part of your daily routine. By doing so, you’ll reap the therapeutic benefits of warm water immersion daily. Not only will this help you relax, but the heat and buoyancy of spa water combined with a jet massage can provide several physical advantages:

  • Heat: Warm water dilates blood vessels, improving blood flow and allowing oxygen and nutrients to reach muscles quickly. This replenishment is especially crucial after a hard workout.
  • Buoyancy: Floating in the warm water takes the weight off tired muscles and joints, allowing you to experience relief from the normal force of gravity.
  • Massage: The water pressure of a jet massage kneads major muscle groups, helping to reduce swelling and compress muscles to relieve fatigue.

 

2. Put The Phone Away

There’s no question that technology makes our lives easier. But that doesn’t mean our devices are always helping our well-being. While a smartphone provides an important connection to work, family, and friends, it also demands attention. With that comes obligations, distractions, and often, stress. When overused, technology can be associated with health problems.

To prevent a smartphone from getting in the way of good health, leave it in the house when soaking. If you can’t help but have it nearby, turn it on “Do Not Disturb” and use it only for streaming music through a Bluetooth® audio system. The separation from texts, calls, and social media allows focus on relaxation as the hot water soothes your body and mind, and the massage jets work to release tension. A little time away from the phone and other devices can have a positive effect on your outlook and improve wellness.

 

3. Listen To The Water

Living in the city brings advantages — but it can make a lot of noise. Heavy traffic, sirens, jets flying overhead, and people walking down the street all add to the din of the urban environment. Unwelcome noise can add to feelings of anxiety, especially when all you want is a little peace and quiet. This is why urban dwellers often turn to hot tubs for some precious moments of tranquility.

 

When you turn on the massaging jets to help reduce pain and work out the tension in different body areas, you activate an effective white noise generator. The soft bubbling of the water can cancel out irritating city noises that could otherwise disrupt the quiet time.

What’s more, many hot tub manufacturers offer a variety of entertainment system options. Hot Spring® Spas feature optional accessories like a wireless Bluetooth® audio system and a 22″ HD monitor. With these innovations, you can listen to podcasts and playlists in your spa or catch up on a TV series.

 

4. Soak Before Sleeping

No list of wellness tips would be complete without talking about sleep. Research has shown a good night’s sleep is critical for mental and physical health. But not everyone sleeps well. Seventy percent of adults in the United States report not getting the rest they need. If you’re kept awake by worries, aches, or pains, a hot tub can offer a way to better sleep.

 

A short soak about an hour before bed helps relax your body and prepare your mind for a satisfying sleep. As you soak in the warm water, your body temperature rises. Once out of the spa, your body temperature drops, signaling to the brain that it’s time for sleep. The break from cell phones and other distractions also helps quiet your mind to fall asleep faster.

To experience the tremendous benefits yourself, stop by Hot Spring Spas of Iowa and the Twin Cities for a wet test. As you feel the effects of the warm water firsthand, imagine the impact you could make on your daily wellness by adding a hot tub to your home.

How A Daily Hot Tub Soak Can Help Improve Physical Wellness

This blog originally appeared on hotspring.com and has been edited for clarity.

 

There’s no one magic pill to take that improves your physical wellness. Instead, incorporating small, but healthy habits into your routine can create a complete, wellness-focused lifestyle. This may include eating nutritious meals, practicing self-care, a good night’s sleep, and exercising regularly. But also consider adding a daily hot tub soak to your wellness regimen. Hydrotherapy can provide amazing health benefits, allowing you to recharge, reconnect, and recuperate. 

 

How To Improve Physical Wellness With Hydrotherapy

Taking steps to improve physical well-being doesn’t mean you need to enter triathlons. Instead, it’s about being dedicated to a wellness routine, while being thoughtful and active. If you work in an office, consider standing up to stretch more often or taking a walk on your lunch break. If you live close to your job, think about walking or biking to work. If you’re a parent, set time aside to play outside with the kids and reconnect with them when you get home.

 

You don’t have to change your life drastically or push yourself to a quick extreme. Wellness isn’t a sprint. It can be as relaxing and enjoyable as soaking in a hot tub.

 

What Is Hot Tub Hydrotherapy?

Hot tub hydrotherapy — the combined therapeutic effects of heat, buoyancy, and massage — can improve your health, especially when enjoyed as part of a daily routine. Warm water immersion:

  • Relaxes muscles;
  • Creates buoyancy which reduces joint tension while easing aches and pains;
  • Jet massages can work out knots caused by hard work or stress; and 
  • Improves emotional wellness so you feel better physically and mentally.

 

Hot Tubs Make Hydrotherapy More Accessible

With a home spa, the benefits of hydrotherapy become more: accessible, private, and therapeutic. Having a hot tub at the center of a wellness routine can inspire you to stick with an overall wellness plan because it’s an enjoyable experience. Unlike fighting the crowds at the gym, soaking in a hot tub every morning or at night before bed will be a bright spot in the day, helping you feel good about the effort you’re making.

 

A Good Night’s Sleep Can Improve Physical Wellness

Sleep is a major component of wellness, affecting many areas of life. A lack of sleep can alter your mood and make weight loss more difficult. If you’re perpetually tired, you likely won’t have the energy to work out or stay committed to other health-related activities.

 

A warm soak before bed can help you sleep better if you suffer from common sleep ailments, such as insomnia, and help relieve the day’s stress and naturally ease your body into sleep. After a good night’s sleep, a morning soak is invigorating and mentally prepares you for even the most trying day.

 

Soak Your Way To Better Well-Being

Enhancing physical wellness is about developing healthy habits that contribute to overall well-being. A daily soak in a hot tub can help promote health by providing all the benefits of hydrotherapy in an enjoyable and relaxing experience. No matter what your exact routine is, with your hot tub as the cornerstone, you’ll be making wellness a priority in your life and increasing your chances for success in all your wellness goals.

HGTV Canada’s Scott’s Vacation House Rules Features Euro Outdoor Sauna

Thursday, June 13th, 2024

Finnleo Episode404321

A sauna is an excellent addition to a vacation home (for several reasons we’ll cover in a moment). But, don’t just take our word for it…


Finnleo Featured on HGTV Canada’s Scott’s Vacation House Rules, Season 4


On HGTV Canada’s Scott’s Vacation House Rules real estate expert and contractor, Scott McGillivray offers the ultimate road map to renovation and rental success. With decades of smart real estate investing and renovation experience, Scott unlocks the rental potential of even the most uninspired properties. He finds and transforms tired, dated, and rundown spaces into unique and buzz-worthy parcels of paradise.


In Season 4’s Episode, Lakeview Luxury Inn (aired 10/17/23), McGillivray’s team sets out to renovate an upper-level lake cottage located in Lakefield, Ontario. The lower level of the cottage is a local market, restaurant, ice cream parlor, and LCBO for those visiting the lake.


One of the five vacation house rules defined in the show is GET NOTICED. As a vacation homeowner and property manager you need guests to choose your property – so you must give them a reason to. For this Lakefield property, a Finnleo Euro Outdoor sauna was incorporated to draw visitors in, especially during the colder months.


Finnleo Episode40431


Sauna use and investment continues to grow in popularity in North America, both for relaxation but even more so as a health and wellness practice. This makes sauna an excellent addition to a vacation home, as guests are often looking for a place to get away from their normal routine to rest, relax, and reconnect to what is important in life.


Saunas: A Great Investment for an Income Property


Beyond its ability to get your rental property noticed among a long line of listings, Finnleo saunas are a great investment for an income property, for several reasons. (Note – these reasons also make saunas a great investment for any home, but these uniquely apply to the nature of rental properties.)


#1: Year-Round Enjoyment


Saunas can (and should) be enjoyed year-round, as they provide rest, relaxation, and wellness benefits no matter what time of the year you use one. A common sauna routine, especially relevant for this lake cottage’s sauna, is a sauna-swim cycle. A dip in cool water (or even rolling in the winter snow) is the perfect break between sauna sessions to decrease your body temperature and reset for another sweat.


This is a valuable selling point for vacation properties, especially those located in seasonal destinations; year-round amenities can help draw people in during an off-peak season.


#2: Low Maintenance


Light regular cleaning with water and a soft brush is all a sauna requires on a regular basis (if used respectfully). If stains begin to develop, again a soft hand brush and mild detergent will quickly brighten the wood. When needed (annually if your sauna is used regularly), the benches can be lightly sanded to look like new.


The only other item to monitor is the sauna rocks in your heater. A general guideline is to replace annually if used 3+ times per week. Though, the condition of the sauna rocks will tell you when it’s time.


This maintenance is quick and easy for property managers to facilitate between guest stays, or when needed.


#3: Smart Control System


The SaunaLogic2® Control & mobile app is a great set up to facilitate guest operation as well as property manager control. The on-site control is simple for guests to use and operate the sauna. In addition to controlling the sauna features, it also has a built in 60-minute timer signaling the sauna to shut down for safety purposes.


The property manager can also retain control off-site via the mobile application. This may be helpful in monitoring sauna usage as well as troubleshooting guest challenges (which should be minimal).


#4: Connection & Conversation


The intimate space and high heat in a sauna combine to encourage tech-free time and uninterrupted conversation, which can be hard to come by in our ‘always-on’ world. It perfectly facilitates open, honest conversation which can lead 4to reconnection and deeper understanding. This sauna benefit is often overlooked in discussion, but there is incredible potential for building stronger bonds and relationships if you let the sauna work its magic. Imagine the lasting impression the sauna could leave on your guests (this type of experience is what encourages repeat customers and referrals!).


#5: Relaxation & Wellness


Lastly, we’ll reiterate the relaxation and wellness benefits of sauna. If your guests are truly on vacation, a sauna will be a welcome retreat to support their rest and rejuvenation goals. Heat is a powerful tool, and sauna uses it in all the right ways. Tension relief, toxin release, muscle relaxation, and much more can happen within the high heat and humidity of a sauna, leaving your guests feeling refreshed and renewed.

How to Choose a Sauna


When choosing a sauna for a vacation property you will need to consider a variety of factors, for example:


  • Available Space – Indoor or Outdoor
  • Guest Experience Goals
  • Surrounding Area Allure & Vacation Destination Attractions
  • Budget & Timeline
  • Long-Term Property Plans/Goals


In the episode, Scott visited the local Finnleo dealer The Sundance Spa & Sauna Store, to determine and assess his options. We’d recommend following suit. Our authorized dealers can help walk you through all the possible options, let you try different saunas with different heat experiences, answer your questions, and generally help guide you toward a sauna best fit for your property.


For the lakeside cottage property featured on Scott’s Vacation House Rules, an outdoor sauna was the best fit. It extends the rental space beyond the upper level and encourages guests to get outside, no matter the weather, and enjoy what this beautiful piece of Lakefield, Ontario has to offer.


Outdoor Euro Sauna


A 6’x8’ customized Euro Outdoor with a western red cedar exterior and metal sloped roof adds character and charm to the cottage’s outdoor space – with interior bench space to seat up to 5-6 guests at a time. Encased in traditional Nordic White Spruce with 4 well-placed windows, the interior is open and bright in the daylight, and moody and cozy in the evening. The Designer-SL2 heater powers the sauna, and heats the room up to 194ᵒ F.


Our custom Euro Outdoor saunas give homeowners options – room size, window size and placement, door placement, wood type, bench configurations, and more. It’s a great solution to be able to incorporate the beauty of your property into your sauna experience. Whatever appealing characteristics your property has to offer – the lake, the forest, the patio, etc. – make them visible from the sauna for your guests to appreciate.


If you missed the episode, be sure to catch it on STACKTV.
