Can hot tubs help you lose weight?

Jacuzzi definition

Hydrotherapy is health. Numerous studies have shown that the pressure exerted on our body by water at a certain temperature and at the right time helps to reduce stress, muscular pains, to reactivate circulation, and even has an impact on our psychological well-being.

But there are no secrets or miracles to lose weight: a healthy and balanced diet and a little exercise is the best recipe to get rid of those extra kilos and stay at the ideal weight. However, there is something that hydromassage can do for us, and that is to help us with fluid retention and cellulite.

On the other hand, cellulite has practically the same causes as fluid retention, so the solution is the same: the massage exerted by the hydromassage will help reactivate blood and lymphatic circulation, and the pressure received will also favor the disappearance of the unsightly bumps called “orange peel” by mobilizing fat and waste substances.

Many people, before buying a pool with a Jacuzzi, wonder if it is possible to lose weight by using them. Despite its limited space, there are many ways to lose weight in a whirlpool.

Besides, yoga is good for the mind and body; it is also good for digestion. When yoga is combined with the warmth of the whirlpool pool, it can improve digestion. And this way you also lose weight.

The first thing to keep in mind is the temperature. It has to be set correctly and should not be higher than 38 ºC. If the water feels too hot, it can be adjusted via the control panel.
