People with specific medical disorders, like diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease, should refrain from using hot tubs. Blood arteries may enlarge as a result of the hot tub’s heat, which may lower blood pressure. Those who already have medical conditions may find this to be risky. Dirty or filthy? While personal hot tubs may be relatively safe microbiologically, public (hotel or spa) hot tubs can potentially be very high in infection-causing bacteria (germs), particularly if water is recycled.

Do you take everything off at a spa?
For massages and body treatments, ideally you disrobe completely (that means underwear, too). Most spas offer paper panties to wear during body treatments (like scrubs, wraps, or self-tanning)—they don’t cover much, but enough to provide a modicum of modesty. Wear as much or as little clothing as you’d like during the massage. When it’s time for your appointment, feel free to take off some, all, or none of your clothing. Most people dress down to their underwear for the first time, while others are completely fine being naked under the massage blanket.Drape a client, whether fully or partially clothed. Only the area to be treated should be exposed. If the client does not want to be covered, and the law of the land permits it, you may go with an undraped massage. Getting additional consent for that might be a good idea, especially if it is legally required.
