Hot spring spas have many benefits for
human body besides simple relaxation. For thousands of years, people
used these waters filled with minerals to get relief from many sorts
of diseases and injuries. They provide stimulation of the immune
system, relief to muscle soreness and improvement of circulation.
Stimulates the Immune System
Hot springs helps to enhance immune
system. Hoberg's Club
Dan Nelson states that they can regulate the body's autonomic
nervous system, which consists of the parasympathetic and sympathetic
systems. Stumulation of the sympathetic system can be through stress,
sugar and caffeine, and help regulate the fight-or-flight response,
while latter one regulates the rest and repair of the body. The heat
of the hot springs soothes the body and brings it to the
parasympathetic state, where repair and immunity are increased.
Relieves Muscle Soreness
Heat has long been known as fast relief
of tired and sore muscles. Having a long relaxing dip in hot springs
is the natural and the best way to help the muscles, and not only in
one area, but also the entire body. Heat soothes the body and also
decreases pain sensitivity. Dan Nelson of Hobergs talks about hot
springs and says "Warm waters have long lasting relaxing effect
than that of pain relievers."
Improves Circulation
The water in hot springs also
stimulates circulation. Hot water bathing increases hydro-static
pressure on the body, resulting in increased blood circulation and
cell oxygenation. Bathing in hot springs helps improve the
circulation and are best for those suffering from severe diabetes.
