Athletes Train and Compete with Jacuzzi® Hot Tubs
The Jacuzzi® Brand supports athletes both during competitions and throughout daily training. From before a workout to after a hard race, here is how a Jacuzzi® Hot Tub is an integral part of the training program for many professional athletes.
Natural Stress Relief
Humans are not only naturally attracted to water, but water is a natural, therapeutic tool, too. Getting into hot water, particularly, around the temperature , enhances a physical and mental state of relaxation by deep heating the muscles, relieving stress, and helping athletes focus on the game. And, when that water includes a jetted massage, studies[1] also show a decrease in cortisol and an increase in serotonin and dopamine which boast stress-alleviating effects.
Hydromassage After Muscle Exertion
Post-training or after a race, the benefits of hydrotherapy are emphasized by massage jets, powered by the perfect mix of air and water; also known as Jacuzzi® Aqualibrium®. When pressure is concentrated on certain areas of the body, hydromassage helps to breakdown the lactic acid in the muscles created through strenuous exercise, helping to relieve soreness and stiffness. In addition, blood flow is increased and muscle and energy recovery are accelerated.
Athletes Partner with the Jacuzzi® Brand
For these reasons, many athletes have chosen the Jacuzzi® Brand as an integral part of their workout routine. Jacuzzi®allows you to customize the massage and concentrate on the areas of the body where the highest stresses occur during exercise. For instance, the leg, calf and foot jets of a Jacuzzi® Hot Tub bring relief to the most stressed muscle areas for runners and cyclists, while the wide swath of back and shoulder jets in FX12 jet therapy seats and RX jet therapy seats often benefit the muscles of skiers or swimmers. Proair™ Lounge seats are also popular for athletes like lacrosse, rugby, soccer, and hockey.
Whether training for a big race or just keeping fit, the Jacuzzi® Brand is dedicated to provide both professional athletes and everyday fitness enthusiasts the best physical and mental preparation recovery and with a Jacuzzi® Hot Tub. Discover more hot tub benefits now.
