Hot Tubs Mesa Dealer Offering New and Used Hot Tubs and Spas for Sale Publishes Three Tips for National Healthy Aging Month. Offers Free Test Soaks to Local Residents Continue reading →

Sep 26, 2014 /prREACH/ -- Southwest Spas, the premier Dimension One Spas dealer serving the Mesa and Phoenix, Arizona area selling new and used hot tubs and swim spas is participating in National Healthy Aging Month.

“National healthy aging month is a great time to take stock of what people are doing in their lives to make themselves healthier so they stay in better condition as they age,” said Melinda Dalacas, manager of Southwest Spas.

“Improving people's ability to stay healthy and active as they age can start at any time, the younger the better,” continued Dalacas. Here are three simple things that everyone can do that will have a big impact on healthy aging.

Fiber Up – Eating plenty of high grain fiber and fiber rich foods helps provide a full feeling that allows people to curb their appetite. Avoid simple carbohydrate fibers like white rice and white flour. Even though they are fiber, they have been stripped of the heavier fiber outer shells, and all that is left before they are processed is the sugar source inside.

White flour foods like white bread, doughnuts, spaghetti etc, are very popular because they taste sweet and are appealing. The pleasure is quick because the sugar release is fast, giving a rush to the system. However, when that wears off, and it does quickly, the collapse of sugar makes people tired, irritable and worse—hungry.

Look for complex carbohydrate fiber sources like beans, green vegetables or food made with whole wheat flours. High fiber foods help cleanse the system and provide a long, slow release of sugar to the system that lets people perform at the best of their abilities. Whole grain oatmeal is an excellent choice for breakfast for the entire family. It is filling and provides a long-lasting source of energy.

Create Balance – Take up yoga, tai chi or create a workout filled with balance strengthening exercises. Balance exercises are simple routines that anyone can do at any age. Some good balance improvement exercises include: standing on one foot, walking on a low balance beam, standing on tip toes.

While these exercises do not seem to have much impact on overall health, they can help people of all ages excel at hobbies and activities. Even more important, doing these types of exercises will help as people age by making it less likely they will fall or injure themselves.

Find Peace – Come home to a peaceful atmosphere by creating an inviting and comfortable house. Add a hot tub to the yard or patio for the perfect place to relieve daily stress and get rid of the aches and pains from the day. Soaking in a hot tub can help muscles heal from injuries quicker, and the Arthritis Foundation advocates daily soaking in warm water for soothing stiff joints and relieving the pain associated with arthritis.

“To help local residents understand how portable spas, hot tubs and swim spas can help improve overall health and well-being, Southwest Spas will provide free hot tub test soaks during the entire month,” commented Dalacas. “Southwest Spas wants to encourage local residents to check out the benefits of a relaxing soak in the soothing waters of a hot tub for themselves.”

Consumers wanting to learn more about hot tubs or about the $500 Wellness package (Massage Certificate/Health and Beauty Items) with the purchase of hot tub or swim spa this month are encouraged to visit the company website.
