It was previously mentioned that hydrotherapy and the term "outdoor tub" did not come together, hydrotherapy has been around for many years. In ancient India, the sacred books Vedas and Manu mention that water is used to treat illnesses. Also in Egypt, it was said that the waters of the Nile were revered for their healing power.
Water is believed to have been linked to deities, including supernatural powers depicted in some megalithic monuments near places with hot springs.
The first reference to water as a method of healing dates back to the 5th century BC, when water was used to reduce fever and treat illnesses. It was recommended to bathe at different temperatures depending on the desired benefit for the body.
For muscle pain, cold water was used, and for rash, hot water or natural temperature. The term hydrotherapy refers to the use of water to treat the body, which is why it is considered the first remnant of hydrotherapy.
However, the invention of hydromassage comes from the same creators of the tub, but not from the term hydrotherapy, which has existed for many years. It is necessary to know how to differentiate the two terms. The tub company started out in a family that made airplane propellers, but ended up creating the hot tubs that are so popular today and promoting hydro massage, why?
It turns out that in 1943, one of the limbs suffered from severe rheumatoid arthritis, noting the positive effects that the hydrotherapy had on his body. 13 years later, this young man's father created the first pump that, when submerged, propelled water in a controlled manner, mimicking the healing effects of hydrotherapy.
Thus was born the "J-300", a pump that created a jet of water under pressure, capable of equaling the positive effects that hydrotherapy produced in hospitals of the time.
This is what created the basis for the tubs and of course also the swimming pool with hydromassage. Shortly after this, this invention became known to the press, earning it deserved recognition, although it was only the start of something much bigger than you can imagine.
In 1968, a project was reviewed and approved by Roy tub, who gave him the green light for the creation of a bathtub with integrated jets, that is, an integrated hydromassage system, that is, ie the first real model and a hydromassage tub, or tub, name which comes from the same company and the last name of the creators.
From that moment the invention gained popularity as an almost miraculous device capable of improving the state of body and mind in a matter of minutes, becoming the luxury item it is today. hui.
Even today, swimming pools with hydromassage tubs are not called hydromassage as such, but rather tubs on many occasions, to say how popular the invention and the brand have become, moving from the status of a product to that of a recognized brand, a category that everyone had heard about.
Thus, with the creation of tubs, the term hydromassage has become one of the best known and most effective treatments to optimize the condition of the body, making known a natural solution for various ailments, diseases and even general concerns that could affect a person's natural state.
