Gang,
do you get into the hot jacuzzi after your swim?
I usually hop in for a few minutes with the hope that it will relax my shoulders that I just worked so hard.
There is a big down pouring spout in my club's jacuzzi...and the water can really massage the shoulders. I get under that, but the intense chlorine smell really gets me. In fact my eyes are burining out right now
In reality though--does this hot water "therapy" really make any difference for relaxing shoulder muscles?

Yes, its a vasodilatation and (resulting) blood pressure thing. It may be accentuated by relative dehydration after a strenous work out.
