We bought a package for $30,000. It included a small pool, 300 sq ft of pavers, a screened enclosure enough to cover the pool. We then learned the water temperature would not be warm enough, so we added a heater, and salt system.
Constriction of blood vessels and increase in heart rate does raise blood pressure, but only temporarily â when the stress reaction goes away, blood pressure returns to its pre-stress level. This is called situational stress, and its effects are generally short-lived and disappear when the stressful event is over.
Your body produces a surge of hormones when you're in a stressful situation. These hormones temporarily increase your blood pressure by causing your heart to beat faster and your blood vessels to narrow. There's no proof that stress by itself causes long-term high blood pressure. It may be that other behaviors linked to stress â such as overeating, drinking alcohol and poor sleeping habits â cause high blood pressure.
