NATURAL HIGH FROM A HOT TUB-RELASING THE BODY’S NATURAL “FEEL GOOD” CHEMICAL

October 13, 2008

 

There is actually scientific proof that soaking in hot water is not only good for you, but chemically linked to “feeling good!” Numerous studies have proven that soaking in hot, bubbly water simulates the release of endogenous opioid peptides which we know by the short name: endorphins, which are the body’s natural “feel good” chemical. An increase in endorphins can strengthen the immune system, improve sleep, prevent headaches and energize the body. It’s no wonder that in North American, Japan and Europe, hot water therapy comes so well recommended for self-care by naturopathic doctors. In addition to all the physical benefits, you may find that hot water enhances your sense of well being, lifts your spirits and leaves you feeling refreshed and naturally rejuvenated.
