| For centuries man has known of the healing powers of warm
water. Before the modern portable spa, people have enjoyed the relief of pain and
tension offered by natural hot springs. Today's spa technology, particularly as developed by L.A. Spas, can offer specific therapeutic benefits. L.A. Spas, with its sophisticated reverse molding technique, can deliver the healing flow of water from the jets to specific spots on the body. These spots, known as pressure points, can lessen or eliminate pain if triggered properly. L.A. Spas exclusive Pressure Point Therapy delivers warm, soothing water to these pressure points. Even if your problem area is in the hard to reach neck or shoulder region, the unique Quadra Jet Neck & Shoulder Seat delivers relief like no other spa on the market. And various types of jets allow you to massage different muscles with different water pressure. Besides Pressure Point Therapy, how else can a L.A. Spa improve your physical and mental well being? Here are just a few ways ... ARTHRITIS Painful or inflamed joints cause muscles to tense in an effort to protect them. Warm water and hydrotherapy help relax the muscles and allow greater range of motion in the joints. Pain is often reduced, even after leaving the spa. BUOYANCY When submerged in water your body is about 1/10 its |
normal weight. Buoyancy is a key element of relaxation
and stress relief. It helps overcome the effects of gravity and relieves stress on
the joints. EXERCISE Exercising can cause microscopic tears in the muscle and lactic acid build up. The warm massaging action of a spa will accelerate the healing process, and allows the lactic acid to be carried away from the muscles. As muscles relax and pain eases you move more easily with less pain. SLEEP Warm swirling water reduces stress and allows you to rest and get a better nights sleep. Sleep deepens as body temperature drops. Experts recommend that people who suffer from sleeplessness soak in a spa at 100 to 104 degrees F for 15 minutes before bedtime. PAIN RELIEF Endorphins are natural pain killers for the body. Warm water stimulates their release. When the body is in warm water, blood vessels near the skin relax, allowing more blood to flow, bringing endorphins and nutrients to damaged cells. L.A. Spas are designed for hydrotherapy from head to toe. All jets are adjustable and interchangeable to allow you to dial in the exact level of therapy with a simple twist of a face plate. Because the therapy pumps are dual speed you can choose a soft, gentle massage or a vigorous massage. No other spa on the market can compare to the quality or variety of the therapy you get with L.A. Spas. |
