Walk-in Tub Benefits for Arthritis
Arthritis affects the lives of millions of Americans, but few know how close help is. Simply bathing in a walk-in tub serves as an easy yet effective remedy for this debilitating condition.
A few years ago, a couple of physicians determined that this simple treatment did so much to treat arthritis because when water reduces weight by 90%, pressure is relieved from joints, thereby decompressing cartilage and promoting much needed repair. Warm water therapy enhances this healing process by dilating blood vessels and increasing blood flow to sore or damaged tissue. The Arthritis Foundation affirms that warm water therapy keeps joints moving in a gentle setting. Not only will a walk in tub decrease your pain level, but will also help in reducing the swelling in your joints.
