Reef Spa | Four Health Benefits of Buying an Essex Hot Tub

Updated: Jul 6, 2023

An Essex hot tub can improve your life in ways you may not have imagined. Perhaps the best thing about our spas is their ability to bring families, couples and friends closer together (because who in their right mind would turn down an invitation to have a dip?)


Whether you’re staying up late to stargaze in your garden or getting up early to see the sunrise, your tub can help you connect with those you care about most. Our Essex hot tub customers can hardly believe the positive effects a spa has had on bringing their families closer together.


Incorporating a daily soak in your spa can also hugely benefit your general health and wellbeing. While only your trusted GP or a qualified professional will be able to tell you if hydrotherapy could be beneficial, there are still plenty more hot tub health benefits!


Soak the Stress Away

Perhaps the most obvious health benefit is a Essex hot tub spa’s ability to relieve stress. In today's climate, it’s very easy to become overwhelmed and anxious. Stress can wreak havoc on your body, causing chest pains, headaches, anxiety, social withdrawal and even depression. Luckily, studies show that stress levels can dramatically decrease when your body is submerged in warm water.


Hot Tub Help Sore Muscles

Can a hot tub help sore muscles? Ask any athlete how they maintain a consistent performance and they’ll tell you “it’s by soaking in a spa”. Science has shown us that the warm water of a Essex hot tub can greatly reduce any lactic acid that builds up after you’ve exercised. This paired with the powerful massaging bubble jets of a Reef Spa will ease any aches and pains and soothe tight muscles. (The magical healing powers of warm water can also aid recovery from any injuries you’re experiencing!)


Burn Calories

Does a hot tub burn calories? Research led by Dr. Faulkner at Loughborough University suggested that soaking in an Essex hot tub for 1 hour can burn the same number of calories as a 30-minute walk!
