Relaxation and Stress Reduction

Stress has an adverse effect on health - the heart works harder, breathing becomes more rapid and shallow, and digestion slows. Nearly every process of the body is degraded. Researchers have estimated that 80% of disease is stress related. According to Oprah's Doc, Dr. Mehmet Oz, reducing our levels of stress can help you look and feel younger and possibly live longer.

• Relaxing in a spa stimulates the release of endorphins, the body's natural “feel good” chemical, giving you a sense of well being and rejuvenation.

• Warm water and soothing massage relieves anxiety and relaxes tense muscles.

• A hot tub provides a sanctuary for quiet moments alone or to reconnect with family and friends.

• What better place to meditate (again, by recommendation from doctors like Dr. Oz) by yourself then in warm water in the quiet solitude of your own backyard.
