  Benefits of a Hot Tub in Spain for Hydro MassageWhat an enjoyable way to get the water therapy that you need and refresh your mind and body and get the respite that you deserve from your Hot Tub in Spain. The physical properties of water make it a useful medium in which to exercise and treat muscle, neck and back pain. The advantages that water provides to help with Hydro massage and Hydrotherapy is related to the Buoyancy and Viscosity effect of water.Buoyancy - The flotation effect of water helps to counter balance gravity to a limited degree and helps to support your body weight and this can be controlled by using different massage seats in the Hot Tub. This semi buoyancy can be a support to the development of improved balance and strength and some simple exercises such as stretching and flexing could be carried out. Jets – On a well made our Hot Tub the Jets will be Interchangeable and completely adjustable - Turn on and off – Total water control - A wide variety of Hydro therapy zones. This interchangeable jet system allows you to control the flow of water pressure and the type of massage you will get at each and every seating area in the spa. Other Hot Tubs & Spas have fixed high pressure jets that may give you a stinging and itching type of massage and may not penetrate deep enough to allow you to get the relief you need & deserve. Do not buy a spa that has a large number of fixed jets so that you cannot change jets in your spa as your therapy needs change. Viscosity - Water produces resistance by means of gentle friction and this combined with a mixture of pressure provided by warmed Water and Air Jets allows one to strengthen and improve the condition of aches and pains , while reducing the risk of further injury due to loss of balance. Hydrostatic pressure - there are powerful effects produced by hydrostatic pressure that help to improve heart and lung function, making some gentle exercise is a very useful way to maintain and strengthen heart and lung function. This pressure effect also helps to improve muscle blood flow. All these properties combined help to allow for treatment of aches & pains but due to the buoyancy effect it allows you to reduce the weight placed on the body while stretching in the Hot Tub. For example, individuals with osteoarthritis in the neck and shoulder could practice arm circles or shoulder rolls in water to improve their range of motion and strength. Because the water provides both mild resistance and support through buoyancy, the person would most likely not experience the pain that can be created when an exhausted arm drops suddenly, as it can do at the end of other exercises. Also the concept of pain may be substantially reduced a result of many factors including the relaxing sounds as well as the warmth of the water provided by the Hot Tub often making this a very pleasurable experience. The buoyancy effect of the water allows a wider range of positions in the Hot Tub due to the weightless effect of the water.
