How does warm water and jet action promote healing?

Hot Tubs Promote Healing

In addition to helping your body relax and de-stress, hot tubs help promote healing throughout the body, too. Adding the jets to warm water therapy can increase relaxation and speed healing in sore muscles. The warm water, combined with this extra oxygen promotes healing inside and out. The heat of the water and the pressure of the jets have a lot to do with it. There is also evidence that the jets can raise antibody levels and white blood cells in injured areas, which helps them heal faster by destroying injured cells and stimulating the formation of new, healthy tissue. That's why you'll often see athletes soak in a hot tub after a match or game. The warm water helps them relax, but more than that, it will help speed up their healing so they can play another day.
