Spas are known for their helpful qualities such as hydrotherapy and arthritic relief.
But spas are not only a toy, there are several health concerns which the owner
must be aware of such as the following:
WARNING People with infectious diseases should not use a spa.
The use of alcohol, drugs or medication before or during spa use may lead to uncon-
sciousness with the possibility of drowning.
Do Not use the spa immediately following strenuous exercise.
Persons suffering from heart disease, diabetes, high or low blood pressure or any other
serious illness and pregnant women should consult with their physician before using the
spa.
Excessive water temperature can be dangerous. Before entering the spa, the user should
measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer, since the tolerance of the
water temperature regulating devices may vary as much as +/-3°C(5°F) The Water should
never exceed 40°C (104°F) and lower water temperature is recommended for extended
use (exceeding 10-15 minutes) and for young children.
Long exposure at higher temperature can result in dizziness and/or hyperthermia.
Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several
degrees above the normal body temperature of 98°F (36.7°C). The symptoms of hyper-
thermia include dizziness, fainting, drowsiness or lethargy.
The affects of hyperthermia include:
• Unawareness of impending hazard
• Failure to perceive heat
• Failure to recognize the need to exit the spa
• Physical inability to exit the spa
• Fetal damage in pregnant women
• Unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning
Children should be supervised at all times.
