According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 52 million people in the United States suffer from arthritis. It is the painful inflammation of one or more joints that is referred to as osteoarthritis. Joint pain and stiffness occur as a result of this inflammation, which prevents bones from moving freely at the joint. A lack of treatment can result in bone erosion and joint deformity as a result of arthritis inflammation.
Several types of arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis, can affect any joint in the body. Rheumatoid arthritis is the most common type of arthritis. In that they cause widespread pain in multiple areas of the body that are difficult to reach in a single treatment, these conditions can be difficult to treat. For example, pain may strike in your neck, elbow, and ankle at the same time, causing you to feel pain throughout your entire body. To alleviate the symptoms of this crippling disease, many people turn to medications, exercise, rest, heat therapy and even surgery. But none of these measures are guaranteed to be effective.
When it comes to arthritis pain, water has numerous advantages.
In order to alleviate the pain and stiffness associated with arthritis, doctors often prescribe hydrotherapy. Using water as a medical treatment is known as hydrotherapy. Even though prescription hydrotherapy typically includes exercise, the temperature of the water and the whirlpool action of jetted Corner Massage Bathtubs are the most important factors in achieving effective hydrotherapy results. Aquatic therapy is intended to assist arthritic joints in moving freely and painlessly as much as possible.
Hot water therapy promotes muscle relaxation and pain relief while also easing joint movement and allowing you to exercise more freely because of the warm water temperature. Water also serves to support the weight of the body, reducing the amount of unnecessary stress placed on tired bones and joint.
Pain and inflammation are reduced as a result of regular hydrotherapy treatment, which improves outcomes. Because many patients live miles away from a hospital or clinic that provides this effective treatment, they are unable to participate in hydrotherapy on a consistent basis. This is the most serious problem with hydrotherapy. The good news is that patients can now have jetted tubs and whirlpool baths installed in their homes, allowing them to reap the benefits of hydrotherapy on a regular basis without having to go through the hassles of visiting a clinic.
The water action of jetted tubs and whirlpool baths, which is similar to hydrotherapy offered in hospitals and clinics, relaxes muscles that have become sore as a result of the exertion of moving bones across swollen, dysfunctional joints. Heat and pulsating water motion provided by jetted tubs and whirlpool baths help to condition the entire body by stimulating circulation and delivering oxygen-rich blood to the affected joints. Furthermore, the therapeutic action of these Massage Tubs can help to strengthen the immune system, which can help to improve overall health and well-being.
Baths can also improve the mood of people who suffer from arthritis, as the warm water helps to relieve pain and stress from the joints. In order to reduce the pain and inflammation associated with arthritis, people who are happier are more likely to engage in physical activity and other therapies.
In order to relieve pain and stiffness in arthritic joints, you or someone you care about should use hot, pulsating water to help you or them.
