Wayne has been a basketball player since he was ten years old and was the star guard on his school team. He played all through junior and senior high school and even won a scholarship for college. He played throughout his years at the university and he loved the sport though really had no intentions of pursuing a career in it. This disappointed some of his coaches and friends, as well as a few girlfriends but it as Wayne’s decision and he wanted to become an architect, which was his major in college. After graduation he declined entering into the professional draft and instead committed to a graduate program for which he had applied and been accepted.

This was all ten years ago and Wayne was currently working for an architectural firm in the same city he grew up in and while he was completely satisfied with his job he also continued to play basketball for both health and fun. In addition it was a great way for him to reduce stress, or so he thought. At Wayne’s last doctor’s visit he learned that his blood pressure was high and that he was at risk for heart disease. This surprised the lifelong athlete and after discussing his lifestyle with his doctor he learned he may be too passionate and competitive on the basketball court for it to be serving him well. He had to admit that playing frequently stressed him out more than it relieved his already accumulated stress from work.

It was determined that he should find other ways to relax and also to exercise and one of the things he discovered was the art of tai chi. He had never really taken this seriously as a workout but he quickly learned the effects that the ancient art could produce. He quickly became converted to the practice and was telling his good friend this while they soaked in his friend’s personal spa. His friend told him that he had searched all the models of hot tubs for the one he felt would give him the greatest pleasure and relaxation. At that moment Wayne decided he too needed to install a home spa system and felt that would be the perfect compliment to his tai chi workout.

There’s no doubt that water has enormous benefits on our health, whether we’re drinking it or submerging ourselves in it.  It makes life better, and makes living easier.  Quite literally!  The benefits of a hot tub are too many to list, and new discoveries reveal new benefits all the time.  With our hot tubs, you are getting the most advanced technology around, with multiple jets to increase the power of hydrotherapy.  So, while you are getting the newest technology, you are also working with some of the oldest therapeutic treatments around.  And of course, hot tubs are not just for the purposes of rehabilitation, but are one of the hottest social magnets in contemporary times.  Hot tub parties are fun, whether it’s a group of old friends gathering for a meal on a lovely evening, or a more intimate night when it’s just the two of you.

The benefits on the human body are fantastic.  There is an increase in circulation, a lowered blood pressure, and an absolutely wonderful sense of well-being.  And one of the greatest benefits, it turns out, is that hot tubs are one of the best ways to relax before sleep, and have even been recommended by the National Sleep Foundation.  This means that science is catching up to what our intuiton already told us, that a gloriously relaxing experience can be healthy, and help us live better lives.

There are many keys to getting a healthy night’s rest, and a soak a bit before bedtime is certainly a way to relax.  But enjoying a hot tub before sleep has other benefits that add up to better rest.  Making it a part of your routine not only has the effect of calming your mind, it also affect you on a deeply cellular level.  When the water in your body is submerged in a temperature similar or warmer to its own, there is a kind of equilibrium that you can reach, which has wonderful healthy benefits all around.  It also tells your body that it’s time to sleep, since your body recognizes repetition.  If you have to choose one ritual for every singe day, soaking in a hot tub is not a bad choice at all.  And everyone needs a rest!
