Hot Tubs Scottsdale – Dimension One Spas Dealer Participates in American Diabetes Month – Company Decides to Provide Free Hot Tub Test Soaks

Scottsdale Hot Tubs, Dealer Selling D1 Hot Tubs, Swim Spas and Portable Spas Publishes Three Lifestyle Changes that Can Help Those Suffering from Diabetes in Scottsdale and Phoenix.

Scottsdale, AZ, November 27, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Southwest Spas, the premier Dimension One Spas dealer in the Phoenix and Scottsdale, Arizona area selling new and used hot tubs is participating in American Diabetes Month. According to the American Diabetes Association, 1 in 5 people are at risk for developing Type 2 Diabetes, but many are unaware.

“Shining a spotlight on how to reduce risk factors through healthy lifestyle choices is a first step in preventing new cases and helping those with the disease avoid serious complications,” said Melinda Dalacas, manager of Southwest Spas. Here are 3 lifestyle considerations:

Losing Weight - One of the easiest ways to prevent Diabetes is to lose excess weight. People over the age of 45 who are overweight, leading sedentary lives are more likely to get Diabetes than those who engage in physical activity and maintain a healthy body weight. Moderate exercise, even just a few times a week, can dramatically decrease odds of getting the disease, as well as help the body more efficiently use insulin and process glucose. Small changes in diet-limiting carbohydrates, eating more fiber and grains etc.- lower cholesterol and significantly reduce Diabetes risk factors.

Understanding Family History - While taking steps to control weight and eating right are positive avenues for reducing risk, family history plays a significant role in developing Diabetes. Families with genetic predisposition to the disease, where parents, siblings and aunts or uncles have the illness, are more likely to test positive for the disease. For these families, it’s even more important to control weight through diet and exercise as well as get regular screenings to reduce risk factors. Symptoms of Diabetes may not be present right away and in many cases, do not get recognized until years after getting the disease.

Hot Tub Therapy for Improved Health - Using a hot tub a few times a week relieves pain, relaxes sore muscles and now according to research, improves health of those suffering with Type 2 Diabetes. Studies confirm sitting in the hot tub can actually lower blood sugar and promote weight loss. Because the temperature of the water is high and sustained, blood flow to skeletal muscles increases and core body temperature rises.

Heated water from a hot tub increases blood circulation which allows for more efficient delivery of insulin. The body responds in much the same way during exercise, which is why a dip in the hot tub can simulate the benefits of exercise. Plus, as a preventive measure, relaxing in a hot tub reduces stress- a well-known risk factor contributing to Diabetes.

“To help educate Scottsdale residents on 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. “We want to encourage local residents to check out the benefits of a relaxing soak in the soothing waters of a hot tub for themselves.”
