NEW YEAR’S TIP FOR STRESS REDUCTION: FIND RELIEF BY SITTING NEXT TO THE WATERFALL IN YOUR HOT TUB

January 9, 2009

Limelight Hot Tub’s waterfalls are visually stunning.  Did you know that hot tub waterfalls are not only visually appealing but  can play an active role in stress relief?  It’s not only the trickling sound or the visual play on water that is so calming. The air at the bottom of waterfalls contains a significantly higher concentration of negative ions-electron packed molecules that have been shown to have an anti-depressant effect. A 2006 study at Wesleyan University found that exposure to negative ions alleviated depression within 15-20 minutes.  One possible explanation for this effect according to lead researcher, Naomi Gael, PhD,  Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania, is that negative ions increase the amount and activity of serotonin ( a chemical that regulates mood) in the brain.  So alleviate New Year stress by sitting in your new Limelight Hot Tub from Olympic Hot Tub Company. If you’re lucky enough to have a model with a waterfall, grab the seat next to it, relax and breathe deeply.
