During tax season, many people aren’t sure whether to invest their tax refund into a purchase or save it. While putting some away for safekeeping is wise, consider using a portion of the funds to pamper yourself. The best investment is purchasing a swim spa or hot tub as a gift for your self-discipline and work. Here are four benefits you’ll gain from these relaxing, heated pools.

Swim Spas Offer These 4 Health Benefits 

1. Reduce Blood Sugar Levels

One study found that spending time in a swim spa for 30 minutes a day, six days a week for three weeks reduced blood sugar in people with diabetes. One participant even limited their daily dose of insulin by 18%. 

2. Improve Sleep

According to the Sleep Health Foundation, about 1 in 3 people have mild insomnia. Many people find that relieving tension before going to bed helps them go to sleep faster and stay asleep longer. Soaking in a swim spa can reduce muscle tension and induce feelings of sleepiness.

3. Lower Stress

From family problems to job woes, many people experience stress daily. Many swim spas are equipped with massaging jets that can be set to different intensities. Sitting in warm water with massaging jets can lower stress as the constant water circulation soothes muscles and encourages relaxation. 

4. Increase Range of Motion

Individuals with chronic joint pain from age, arthritis, trauma or repetitive use often spend time in swim spas to alleviate joint and muscle pain. The heated water helps lubricate the joints, making it easier and less painful to perform regular movements like standing, sitting, and reaching for items.
