Whirlpool baths add a new level of luxury to bathing. After a hard day there is nothing quite so relaxing as slipping into your own private whirlpool and letting the warm water jets massage away the aches and strains. Not only will a whirlpool bath make you feel better, there is some evidence to suggest that whirlpool baths may have health benefits as well.

Whirlpools stimulate circulation without increasing your heart rate, so there is an improvement in skin tone and a reduction of stress hormones in the blood system during and after taking a whirlpool bath.

Hydrotherapy, the use of water for medical treatment, has been practiced since the time of the ancient Greeks. It relaxes tired muscles and joints, improves circulation, tones and cleans the skin, refreshes tired bodies and revitalizes the senses. Heat and the movement of water in a whirlpool bath are the key to relaxing muscles and increasing blood flow.

In an ordinary bath the still water creates a film around the body that reduces the body temperature. The movement of a whirlpool disturbs this film allowing the immediate transfer of heat to the body which has a sedative effect on nerve endings, reducing pain and discomfort.

The buoyancy of the water supports your body, relieving the pressure and allowing more movement for your muscles and joints. The lack of gravitational pull on your body in the water means that the jet pressure is more effective on all areas of your body, helping to release endorphins, the same feel-good chemicals released during exercise, massage or acupuncture.

Please note: You should always consult a doctor if you are pregnant or suffer from a circulatory ailment before using any form of hydrotherapy treatment product.

This bath is made in Britain to the highest standards.
