Feel better with regular Sundance hydroptherapy sessions.
Spa Arthritis Relief: When arthritis strikes, simple activities of daily living, like buttoning a shirt or starting the car, become difficult due to stiff joints and decreased mobility. Even minor arthritis pain can interfere with your daily routine.
Gerrys goods’ hydrotherapy can help relieve arthritis symptoms:
- The heat from the warm water relaxes the entire body as it increases blood flow.
- The massaging action of the jets loosens muscle tension and soothes sore joints.
- The water’s buoyancy makes you feel lighter, with up to 90% of your body weight lifted.
Sundance controls let you set the water temperature. You can get a customized massage from adjustable jets, such as the patented Fluidix Nex and Pulsator jets, which are particularly effective in troublesome areas such as the neck and wrists. The best part is you can take advantage of your Sundance hot tub every day, and enjoy effective, hydrotherapeutic pain relief.
Hydrotherapy and Type 2 Diabetes
The New England Journal of Medicine reported on a study (08-16-1999) regarding the benefits of physical exercise and therapy from the use of spas. As reported, patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus were studied using a spa 30 minutes a day, 6 days per week. After only 10 days, patients required reduced doses of insulin, lost weight, showed distinct decreases in plasma glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin, and benefited from improved sleep and an increased general sense of well-being.
The study also reported of benefits for patients who are unable to exercise. These patients would specifically benefit from increased blood flow to skeletal muscles. Once again, if you have this condition or other medical issues, you must consult with your physician prior to starting any hydrotherapy program.
