How Fantastic Whirlpool Bathtub Are

The twentieth century has seen some amazing inventions

. The Whirlpool bathtub is one of them. It is like having your own personal eight hands masseur at home, available whenever you need him. Jets of hot water gently massage all your body parts and cuddle your skin. Some tubs have jets of air making millions of bubbles which complement the delight. You relax intensely. It is a heavenly experience.

Relaxing massages are not the only benefit a whirlpool bathtub can give you. Did you know they also have therapeutic advantages? Stress, migraine, headache, backache, fatigue, exhaustion, cramps, arthritis and osteoarthritis, all those and more can be successfully treated. Also, it has been discovered that half an hour daily helps with weight lost.

Water as a healing treatment is not a new ides. The Romans already had hot water spring baths they would attend on daily basis. Japanese have for centuries been to the "Ofuros", naturally hot mineral water in volcanic pools. It is in Japan a weekly family tradition.

Having a son who suffered from chronic rheumatoid arthritis, Candido created in 1948 a whirlpool bathtub to offer him daily therapy at home. He made one with an oak barrel and an agricultural water pump. Later, he added water jets to amplify the effects. He then marked it. It quickly became a popular feature in American bathrooms.

Today, a large choice of tubs can be found in the shops. First, they come in two varieties, the drop-in type or the alcove type. A drop-in tub is simply put on the floor or on a platform. The alcove tub, a very popular choice in America, is enfold on three sides by walls. Then, there are three styles to choose from, floor mounted sunken tubs, deck mounted tubs or pedestal mounted tubs.

They also come in all shapes and sizes, rectangle, round, oval or shaped like a piece of cake to fit a corner. They have the size of an average bath tub for one or of a mini swimming pool for up to ten people and anything in between. The choice is vast.

Long the time when they were made of wood. At present, tubs are made of acrylic or fiberglass or both for a modest one -of porcelain, cast iron or cultured marble for a more expensive tub -and of copper, stainless steel or concrete for the most stylish model.

Some models can be equipped with the following - a fourteen inch LCD flat screen colour TV with a remote control - a video input - twelve hydro massage jets - twenty air bubble jets - thermostatic temperature value-hand shower with a three option head - two padded headrests and comfortable seating for two - two built-in shampoo and body wash dispensers - underwater light and more.

There is nothing more relaxing than a hot bath with candle lights and some nice music in the background. Imagine you are having the same bath in a whirlpool bathtub. You are feeling the jets of hot water on your body - your skin is gently tickled by the air bubbles - you are in your garden with some friends or alone in your bathroom. It is Heaven!
