Why You Need a Copper 72” Bathtub from CopperSmith

Soaking in a hot bathtub is one of the most pleasurable and pain-relieving activities you can participate in at home. Because of the incredible benefits, people have bathed in hot tubs since the beginning of time.

There’s plenty of evidence of cultures long before us leveraging the power of hot bathtubs, including the Egyptians, the Japanese, and plenty of others. The most incredible characteristic of any tub is the medical benefits.

These benefits aren’t just physical. Because sitting in a hot bathtub feels so good on our bodies, it also eliminates any feelings of depression or a bad attitude in minutes. Sitting alone in your tub gives you feelings of solitude that can assist with providing peace of mind.

Studies have shown that humans feel more comfort and security from soaking in hot water. These 72” bathtubs are large enough to do the trick.

72” Bathtub for Nerves

Evidence has also proven that a hot bath does wonders for calming the nerves. Anybody with fibromyalgia and multiple sclerosis suffers from overactive nerves throughout the body. This makes it a practical option for Parkinson’s and other muscular disorders.

72” Bathtub for Sleep

A hot bath will also do wonders for your sleep patterns. If you have challenges falling asleep or are a diagnosed insomniac, many physicians will recommend large soaker tubs or a hot tub to relax your body and calm your mind.

72” Bathtub for Preventative Measures

Did you know you could potentially avoid the cold and flu during the seasons when they’re most active? Hot baths are known to clear up bad coughs and stuffy noses. This happens as a result of the steam that’s released from the heat of the tub. The steam stops congestion caused by inflammation which drastically relieves mucus.

You can expect a general boost in immune health by regularly taking a hot bath or steam. This also increases your lung capacity, which significantly boosts asthma or other breathing issues.

If you suffer from hemorrhoids, a hot bath won’t cure them, but it can significantly relieve the pain in the meantime. Old home-remedy recipes recommend a 20-minute bath with Epsom salt, witch hazel, chamomile, tea tree oil, and oak bark.

Add olive, coconut, oatmeal, and other essential oils to help hydrate your skin. The aroma is excellent for boosting your mood, and the additives will help with extremely sensitive skin.

Choosing a 72” Copper Bathtub

Now that you understand all these impressive benefits, the last thing to do is pull the trigger on a copper bathtub. If you’re looking to purchase a tub for the mixture of the visual appeal plus the medical properties, it doesn’t get much better than copper.

Copper is a metal that’s sturdy and highly versatile. It’s an attractive metal for many contractors and designers because of its versatility and other beneficial properties.

Although copper bathtubs don’t have the lowest price tags, it’s still one of the best investments you could make. Any additional money invested comes with the return of a lifetime of medical benefits. In addition, taking care of your copper bathtub could last up to a hundred years.

When hot tubs started to peak popularity, many people still used wooden tubs as their go-to option. They were no more complicated than rudimentary wooden barrels sitting on people’s porches or backyards.

Copper wasn’t as popular initially but became incredibly popular because of its visual lore and dependability. They’re not easily scratched, and they’re simple to maintain. One of the most significant benefits is that any scratches or scuffs that appear automatically heal themselves through oxidation.

What could be more impressive than a durable metal that constantly changes its look and self-heals? How about the fact that copper has additional health benefits beyond the healing properties of hot water.

Health Benefits of a 72” Bathtub

Copper’s antimicrobial properties come in handy in the bathtub. Anytime you can naturally boost your hygiene in the bathroom or kitchen, you’re walking away with a win. In addition, copper is also mold resistant, a highly beneficial property in any bathroom.

Were you aware of copper’s healing properties on the connective tissues and joints of the body for conditions like arthritis?

Copper is also highly beneficial for the following:

• Rheumatism (rheumatoid arthritis)
• Osteoporosis
• Arthritis
• Tendonitis
• Moderate to severe sports injuries

If you require trace elements of copper in your diet, these 72” copper bathtubs will also check that box for you.

The body takes in tiny bits of copper while you’re exposed to the water. The heat helps to open up your pores and make your body more receptive to the copper.

As if all of the benefits mentioned up to this point weren’t enough, how about a few more?

Copper heats up much faster and maintains its temperature once it reaches your desired level.

Once the hot water contacts the copper, the tub heats exponentially faster because of the properties of the water. Because water has metallic properties, a conductive reaction takes, forcing the water to heat much quicker.

You’ll also enjoy more relaxing properties in one of our large bathtubs because you can submerge your entire body at once. This provides maximum comfort and pain relief.

Each of our large bathtubs also provides an opportunity to give back to the environment. Because they’re made from 100% copper, they’re fully recyclable and can be used repeatedly.
