HEALTHY LIVING

Hot tubs and saunas are so much more than fun and family time...they are direct investments in your health. This is something that has been know for centuries as the patrons to Roman baths and natural springs in Japan can attest. Why exactly do these products lend themselves so well to healthy living? Here are some of the many reasons why:

• they warm the body resulting in the release of endorphins that lessen muscle and joint pain
• the heat causes an increase in blood flow and circulation causing the heart to pump faster thereby burning calories at rest
• the heat results in sweating that removes impurities and toxins built up in the body
• the sweating process removes dead and damaged skin resulting in healthier skin condition
• muscle and joint swelling is alleviated resulting in faster recuperation from athletic training and sport activities
• in Sundance Spas, Fluidix jets provide deep tissue massage releasing stress and strain in the body
• when stress is removed from the body it leads to better sleeping patterns and overall day-to-day quality of life
• reported to relieve symptoms of many ailments such as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, and fibromyalgia among others.

But don't take our word on this, refer to these leading authorities on the health benefits of using a spa or sauna on a regular basis:

Sauna and Health by Mikkel Aaland

"Sweating is as essential to our health as eating and breathing. It accomplishes three important things: rids the body of wastes, regulates the critical temperature of the body at 37 degrees C (98.6 degrees F), and helps keep the skin clean and pliant.
