In reply to the alternatives: hot tub, sauna, posted by octopusprime on September 20, 2004, at 0:42:17
I do have a friend who lives 5 minutes away who has a hot tub and has told me I can use it anytime (even if she isn't home). I went once and she showed me how to get to cover off etc.
I think I stayed in too long, how do you know when you need to get out?
It seems like such a project - put on a bathing suit, drive over to her house, possibly have to socialize, sit in the tub, dry off (and change before coming home?). But it is certainly cheaper than a massage.
Plus I can't use Epsom Salts in her hottub... As I understand it the heat increases blood flow, but the Epsom Salts help remove the lactic acid. I guess I need to research Epsom Salts a bit...
I feel like I still need to be convinced that the benefits outweigh the inconveniences...
