One of the latest and greatest trends in spa treatments is water circuit therapy. Often offered before other spa treatments, water circuit therapy basically consists of moving your body between hot and cool temperatures. This alternation can be a relaxing and restorative way to achieve balance and even healing. Hot and cold plunge pools benefit those who take a chance on this therapeutic spa treatment.
Essentially, water circuit therapy involves switching between hot and cold plunge pools. In a traditional spa setting, it employs a variety of spa therapy pools and tools, including saunas, cold plunge pools, salt pools, and hot tubs.
You may start with a steam bath to release toxins, and then immerse yourself in a cool plunge pool, followed by a few minutes in a hot tub. To continue the circuit, you might return to the cold pool, then spend a few minutes in the warm salt water pool. The circuit continues back and forth, exposing your body to extremes in temperatures to get the maximum hot and cold plunge pools benefits.
Why might someone want to go back and forth between hot and cold? It might sound uncomfortable, but it has many benefits. The warm water will bring your blood close to the skin’s surface and encourage detoxification through sweating, while the shock of the cold water constricts blood vessels, pushing oxygen-rich blood into deeper tissues. The contrast can benefit the immune system and promote healing by bringing nutrients and oxygen into both the skin surface and the deep tissues.
There’s no need for the added expense and extra trip to the spa for water circuit therapy. If you already have a swimming pool in your backyard, the addition of a hot tub opens up the option to experience the benefits of water circuit therapy from home.
