Exercising in your hot tub offers a healthy, fun way to relax and improve muscle tone at the same time. Hot tub exercises provide simple physical exertion that can promote tension release and relieve muscle tightness.  They’re particularly good if you suffer from arthritis or fibromyalgia because they’re so gentle.  You can go at your own pace and look for small benefits everyday. Too, the hot water eases painful joints so you get a more complete range of motion.

Begin slowly. Relax completely between exercises. Go at your own pace. Remember to enjoy yourself in your Hot Spring Spa! Breathe!
