What is a whirlpool tub?

Other names for a whirlpool tub include spa, hot tubs, and jacuzzis. A whirlpool tub is full of heated water used for hydrotherapy, relaxation or pleasure. Some have powerful jets for massage purposes. Whirlpool tubs first became popular in America during the 1960s and 70s.

Sitting in a whirlpool tub for a period of time has a number of benefits, both physical and mental.

How does it help reduce mental stress?

Whirlpool tubs can be used to help people with osteoporosis increase mobility and strength as they experience buoyancy and can perform light exercise underwater. The bubbling of the Jacuzzi is particularly soothing and will help to relax you both mentally and physically. Massage by placing your feet directly in front of the water jets, stimulating the thousands of nerve endings in your feet (ThermoSpas Hot Tubs).

How does it treat muscle pain and soreness?

Hopping in a whirlpool tub can be an effective way to treat sore muscles and joints. The water jets allow for a high-pressure hydro massage on specific parts of your body as you move around and adjust your body to receive the full force of the water. At high intensities, the jets can provide something akin to a deep-tissue massage, soothing aches and pains. This is particularly helpful for healing sports injuries, as the heat can soothe muscle spasms and speed up recovery time (Arthritis Foundation).
