9 x Top Reasons you should buy a Spa Pool or Swim Spa

05 October, 2021

We at Sapphire Spas know that there are many reasons to buy a spa pool in today's modern society. From stress relief and relaxation, to increased circulation and joint mobility, our team of experts at Sapphire Spas compiled our list of why owning your own personal escape is beneficial for both your mental and physical well being. Here we have compiled the top 9 reasons you should invest in one today.

1) You can use them all year round

First off, spa pools or swim spas can be used year round which is great for people who live in cold climates because it allows them to swim all winter long! Likewise if the sun is out and it's a hot summers day you'll most likely be etching to get in water. This makes spa pools perfect to use any time of the year. Plus, they're easy to maintain - if your water ever needs changing or heating up, you can do it yourself with no hassle.

2) It'll bring your family closer together

Another great thing about owning your own spa? It's an excellent way of connecting with friends and family while taking time out from everyday life. The spa pool has been around for centuries and they've always been a symbol of relaxation, luxury, and comfort. They're also often the centre of social gatherings in many families.

3) Your skin will be healthier

A swim spa is a great investment for your health. You can use it to exercise and get in shape, but did you know that it also helps keep your skin healthy? A study in the Journal of Dermatology found that people who had an indoor spa pool at home were less likely to have dry, rough and scaly skin, because they spent more time bathing.

You know the feeling when you get out of a pool and your skin is all red and wrinkly? That means that your skin isn't getting enough oxygen. Well, with a swim spa, you'll be able to relax in warm water while the jets massage your muscles and improve circulation. This in turn will leave your skin looking healthier than ever which will be good for your health as well as your overall appearance! If you want to make sure that the next time someone compliments your skin they're not lying, then a spa pool could be right for you.

4) Reduce your stress

A swim spa can also help reduce stress levels because it feels so good on tired muscles. The jets help soothe your body and increase blood flow. This type of therapy has been proven to help people with chronic pain get relief from their symptoms. In addition, this is an excellent way to reduce stress levels by giving your body the chance to relax after a hard day's work!

5) A spa pool may help you lose weight

It's been proven that the average person can lose around 2 pounds per week if they spend 45 minutes at the gym daily. The downside is that it can be hard to find time and motivation to get there. A swim spa eliminates this problem! Not only does it work out your whole body, but you also get an amazing cardio workout while getting some much needed relaxation and stress relief.

When you swim laps in a swim spa or pool, the water supports your weight and makes the exercise less strenuous on your joints. You also get a cardiovascular workout without having to go through the hassle of doing traditional cardio workouts like running or cycling.

6) A better way to exercise

If you need more convincing then read on below:

1) Swim spas are less expensive than most fitness equipment

2) You will see results from using one within a few weeks

3) Swim spas provide an excellent full-body exercise

4) A hot spa opens the skins pores which helps release toxins

5) Your immune system will function better

In short, it does all the things that make exercise so great but without having to leave home!

7) A spa may help you sleep better

The summer heat can be really tough on parents and kids alike. This is because the heat waves lead to a lack of sleep for everyone, which leads to irritability and exhaustion. Luckily, there is something you can do about it: A spa pool will help you sleep better! Did you know that our bodies release stress hormones like cortisol when we are hot or stressed? When these hormones stay in your system for too long they actually make it harder to fall asleep at night. By taking a dip in some hot water before bedtime (especially with your partner!) this helps bring those levels back down and get more restful sleep through the night!

8) A spa can help improve your mood

Swimming in water is proven to be good for your health and it helps the body release endorphins that will literally make you feel happier. You can also improve your cardiovascular fitness by using a spa pool. It also gently massages those hard-to-reach places on your body which makes it easier for you to relax after a long day at work or school.

9) It's an affordable addition to your lifestyle

Do you want to invest in a spa but don't know if it's worth the expense? Understanding swim spas are an alternative to an affordable inground swimming pool that can be installed in your backyard. It doesn't cost too much, requires less maintenance than other types of pools, and still has many of the benefits of a regular pool. Swimming pools are expensive and take up a lot of space. That is why more people are getting swim spas or spa pools, which are half the price and take up less space. If you have an outdoor pool or live in an apartment, this might be for you!

So, if you want to have more fun in the sun this summer, finding your ideal swim spa for yourself or someone else as a gift. It's not too late to order one from Sapphire Spas today, the sooner the better as there is a waiting list for us to build a spa just for you.
