What are the health benefits of a wellness garden?

The health benefits of a hot tub

We start with the warm water of a hot tub. You already feel it coming: sitting in a hot tub with water so between 37 and 39 degrees, is good for you. But why?

1. It provides much needed relaxation. Especially in these times. In which we are all busy and time for ourselves often does not come first. In a Ducktub with the warm water and (possibly) the massaging effect of jets you come to rest. It helps reduce stress, tense muscles and promotes that nice rosy feeling you really need every now and then. 

2. It can help relieve pain. Because of the heat and buoyancy of the water, hot tubs can provide relief from muscle and joint pain, arthritis and back pain.

3. It improves your blood circulation. The warmth of the water causes vasodilation, resulting in better blood flow. This can improve oxygen and nutrient delivery to tissues.

4. You sleep better. Taking a hot bath in the evening can help relax the body and improve sleep quality, making it easier to fall asleep and achieve deeper sleep. 

The health benefits of a sauna

The sauna also has several benefits for your health. If you schedule regular sauna sessions for yourself, you will notice differences in the short term. 

1. It helps detoxify your body. Sweating in the sauna removes toxins from your body through the skin. This can help cleanse the body and promote healthy skin.

2. It improves cardiovascular function. The heat of the sauna can cause dilation of blood vessels, improving blood circulation and stimulating heart function. 

3. It reduces stress. Like a hot tub, a sauna can help reduce stress and promote relaxation. It helps to quiet the mind, allowing you to step out of the sauna completely zen.
4. It relieves muscle tension. The heat of the sauna can help relax tense muscles, reduce muscle pain and promote faster recovery after exercise.

"We both really notice that if you go to the sauna frequently and you really keep up with it, you sleep more restfully, your skin seems much healthier and you just feel incredibly good. You come out of the sauna nice and fresh and healthy." Andrégo (read his entire experience story here).
