Relieve Stress in Your Business or Home With an Aquarium From Family Biz Fish Tanks

April 13, 2011 - PRLog -- Having an aquarium in a medical or dental office brings many rewards. One study in a dentist office determined that patients who watched a fish aquarium before their encounter with the dentist felt less anxiety and required less pain medication than those who did not.  Even hypnosis before a dentist appointment was not as effective as a patient observing a fish tank before an appointment.  Many people waiting for a medical appointment feel a high degree of stress and anxiety. Aquariums have been proven to help reduce that anxiousness along with high blood pressure as well as decreasing pulse rate and muscle tension.  Patients of all ages can complete a medical or dental appointment with ease rather than resistance.  Children especially have a positive response to fish aquariums.

Whether children are at home or in a daycare, simply having an aquarium around can relax them.  Even children with hyperactivity disorder react in a positive manner.  Aquariums provide a place of serenity and an inquiry into the wonderful world of nature for kids.

On the other end of the spectrum, retirement homes can benefit from fish aquariums as well.  Studies were conducted in an assisted living home with Alzheimer’s patients and the placement of aquariums; the results were astonishing.  Eating can become an issue with the elderly;  Alzheimer’s patients watching a fish aquarium while eating stayed longer at the table, and ate up to 27% more food than those who had no view of an aquarium.  In this facility with over 62 patients, the amount of food consumed increased significantly along with an increase in patients weight over a 16 week period.  Less nutritional supplements were required as a result, which reduced health care costs in the facility.  A decrease in physically aggressive behavior among patients was also observed.

Aquariums have a positive impact on people of all ages wherever they may be: in a home, office, or daycare.  Reduced anxiety, blood pressure, and insomnia are just a few benefits for people with a view of a fish tank.  Not only are aquariums great for ones health, but they are beautiful as well.  Fish aquariums server as a living piece of art wherever they stand.  Visit http://www.familybizfishtanks.com.  Take advantage of the Grand Opening  Sale.  Start your new aquatic endeavor today.
