Soaking in the heated waters of a hot spring is an experience you will want again and again once you try it. And there is much more to this geothermal wonder than meets the eye. The naturally heated, mineral- rich water nourishes the body and mind, allowing you to shed stress as you easily float on the surface. How Hot Springs Work Hot springs are heated by geothermal energy. Water meets volcanic hot rocks, resulting in boiling mineral-rich water. Regions far away from volcanic activity can also have hot springs; those occur when a spring runs so deep that it hits rocks close to the Earth’s crust. These rocks are naturally very hot, which then heat the water. How Minerals and Heat Improve Your Health The water in hot springs contains a plethora of minerals, so the water can be healthy and rejuvenating, providing benefits for your skin, cardiovascular system, and more. Every spring has a unique mineral makeup and varied health effects, but here are four of the most common.
Improved Blood Circulation: Minerals like calcium, iron, and sodium bicarbonate are great for blood circulation, as they promote oxygen flow. Radiant Skin: Nitrogen, silica, and other minerals are excellent for exfoliating skin. Less Stress: As the warm water melts stress away, the magnesium and lithium improve your mood. Pain Reduction: Sulfate helps reduce pain, while hot water soothes muscles and reduces inflammation.

Where You Can Find Hot Springs The western part of the U.S. has a higher concentration of hot springs, but if you look hard enough, you can find one anywhere. Some hot springs are deep in the mountains, so you will have to hike in. They often have specular views and are worth the journey. If you do not want to trek up a mountain, you will find many spas built around hot springs that offer amenities besides the spring, such as restaurants and saunas. So, the next time you are traveling, locate the hot springs in your area and put a visit on your itinerary!
