Hot Tubs West Allis, WI - HotSpring and Sundance Spa Dealer Gets Involved in American Diabetes Day

BROOKFIELD, Wis. - March 25, 2013 - PRLog -- West Allis, WI 53214 – “March 25th is American Diabetes Association Alert Day, and the right time to get serious about living a strong, healthy, diabetes-free life,” said Michael Wolf, owner of Wolf Pools and Spas.  “Millions are at risk, but may be unaware, making the goal of Alert Day even more important for early detection and intervention,” continued Wolf.  In an effort to help spread the word, here are some other preventive tips and strategies for reducing risk.

Diabetes Risk Test - The Diabetes Risk Test is a simple, easy test used to determine risk for developing Type 2 diabetes. By providing answers to a few simple questions, potential risk factors are assessed, preventive steps are identified and if need be, follow up with a health care provider is encouraged. The test is available on Facebook year round, but on Alert Day, health care practitioners across America will be encouraging everyone to take a few quick minutes and test.  

Understanding Risk Factors - While there are many known risk factors associated with diabetes, some of them can be prevented. While age and family history cannot be changed, learning about genetic predisposition and elevated risk factors can help guide healthier lifestyle choices. The good news is some known risk factors, like obesity and a sedentary lifestyle, can be prevented, significantly decreasing the risks of developing Type 2 diabetes after age 45. With the right diet, daily exercise and a little information, it’s possible to dramatically reduce the chances of getting diabetes.  

Hot Tub Hydrotherapy and Type 2 Diabetes - Many people do not realize the health benefits associated with sitting in a hot tub. For people already diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, using a hot tub a few times a week can decrease symptoms, improve sleep and even enhance weight loss. Heated water from the hot tub relaxes the muscles, but also increases blood flow which may result in the body using insulin easier. Sitting in the tub briefly also mimics light cardiovascular exercise, which over time, enhances weight loss, making it easier to stick to a diet and exercise program.

March 25th is the time to recognize American Diabetes Association Alert Day by raising awareness about how preventative measures, healthy lifestyle choices and some good information can help stop diabetes in its tracks. With millions of people simply unaware that they are at risk, Alert Day is a positive step in helping spread the word to friends and family members about how to test, share and live a healthy, diabetes-free life.  

“To help educate the public on how hot tubs and hot water hydrotherapy can help improve overall health, Wolf Pools and Spas will provide free hot tub test soaks during the entire month,” commented Wolf.  “We want to encourage local residents to check out the benefits of a relaxing soak in an energy efficient hot tub for themselves.”
