A question we get asked a lot! Cellulite is very common with over 80% of women experiencing it to some degree, but with seemingly no way to get rid of it, can hot tubs play a part in reducing its appearance? In our opinion, hot tubs provide a relaxing experience, helping to improve blood circulation and bring more blood flow to the skin and reducing the appearance of cellulite. But let’s find out a little bit more…
What is cellulite?
Cellulite is a condition in which the skin appears dimpled or lumpy, particularly around the thighs, hips, buttocks, and abdomen. It is caused by the accumulation of fat beneath the skin, which pushes against connective tissue, causing the skin to pucker and dimple.
Can I get rid of cellulite?
The sad news is that there is no treatment or cure for cellulitis. However, there are several methods that may help reduce the appearance of cellulite, including regular exercise, maintaining a healthy diet, staying hydrated, using topical treatments such as creams or massages, and even taking a dip in a hot tub. In our experience, hydrotherapy massage (using a hot tub) can really help cellulite! One of our customers, Cara, said, “I have been using my J-335 every morning over the past few months and have seen a HUGE difference in my skin! Not only is it smoother, but it has made my cellulite less prominent which I am SUPER happy about!”
So, how can hot tubs help reduce cellulite?
We all know hot tubs have many health benefits, including improving blood circulation, easing aches and pains, and reducing stress. Improving blood circulation can have some positive effects on the skin, such as providing more nutrients and oxygen to the skin cells as the warm water of a hot tub can cause blood vessels to dilate, which in turn increases blood flow to the area being massaged. Additionally, reducing stress levels will lower the amount of cortisol in the body, a hormone that can lead to increased fat storage. Hydrotherapy massage will increase blood flow and lymphatic drainage in the affected area. In our experience, all of these may help reduce the appearance of cellulite.

It is important to note that there is no single, definitive solution to reducing cellulite. A healthy diet, regular exercise, and maintaining a healthy weight are all important factors that can help improve the appearance of cellulite over time. Consult with a healthcare professional before making any significant changes to your health or wellness routine.
