Massage Bathtub ‘s Origin and Benefits

The massage bathtub has been used as a healing remedy since ancient times and it is a product that has evolved over the years. Since ancient times, human beings have considered that if we give a certain type of use to the water we drink daily, we can protect the population against many diseases. Today, hydromassage generates a craze for health and well-being that has been around the world. As a result, seaside therapy is receiving renewed attention in both medicine and tourism.

Massage tubs is defined as the application of medicinal mineral water in the form of therapy, to which is added a massage effect by the projection of water by jets incorporated in the bathtub, thus adding effects of muscle relaxation, release of adhesions, analgesia, sedation, venous and lymphatic drainage and increased blood flow. It can also carry an aroma with different essences in order to lead the user to a state of maximum relaxation.

HISTORY OF THE MASSAGE BATH

Today's water jet massage has its origins in classical Greece and the Roman Empire. Later, in 1752, Tobias Smollet wrote an essay "On the External Use of Water" and thus the modern hydromassage system was born. High pressure water began to be used, directing it to any part of the body to treat a wide variety of conditions. Since the 1960s, hydrotherapy and massage have been used consistently as an application of alternative medicine.

The hydromassage bathtub results from the union of two treatments: hydrotherapy (use of water as a therapeutic element) and massage (pressure, rubbing or rhythmic tapping and of an appropriate intensity on certain parts of the body). Thanks to these two methods, a micro-pressure massage is generated, created by the union of different agents, such as temperature, flows and water bubbles, adjustable in intensity, pressure and direction. The hydromassage can be carried out in hot water (33/38 ° C) or in cold water, depending on the result to be obtained.

The Jacuzzi is a traditional bathtub equipped with jets, located on the walls of the corner massage bathtub. These jets project pressurized water at a recommended temperature of between 33º C and 36º C and provide a massage on the parts of the body that you want to treat.

The only difference between a Jacuzzi and a hydromassage tub is the name. A Jacuzzi is the trade name of a multinational company of Italian origin, which has been applied to a hydromassage tub which, due to its great success, is better known under the brand name than in its actual form. The Jacuzzi hydromassage bathtub was the first to be launched on the market. It was also of high quality and its impact was engraved in people's minds, making them believe that every hydromassage tub is a jacuzzi.
