Jacuzzi in Spain
Advantages using a modern Jacuzzi in Spain to help provide
the solace and relief from the every day stress of today's
modern life. One has only to go back to past times and you
will see that of all the various and many leisure options
available that taking the waters or visiting a Spa and
thereby bathing in hot water often using naturally heated
water was one of the most important. The name spa comes of
course from the natural Hot Spring found at Spa in Belguim.

The Romans clearly one of the main fore fathers of Europe
as we know it today new that the beneficial effects of the
water was helpful to their general well being. This was in
Roman Times a key daily activity for men of every class and
indeed for many women. Personal bathing today is considered
very much a private activity carried out in ones home but
bathing in Roman times was of course very much a communal
activity carried out usually in public baths. One has only
to see and look at the Roman Baths that survive today to
understand that in many ways they resemble the health
spas of today although one imagines and hopes that they
perhaps they were not so expensive.

The acceptance of this form of communal bathing as the main
event in daily life belongs in many ways to the Roman way
of doing things and it has to be said that at the very
height of the Roman Empire, the term taking the waters or
visiting thermal baths embodied the ideal way of urban life
in Roman Times. Many Romans were able to set up a bath
house in their own town house or especially in their
country villas, even heating various rooms or perhaps an
independent building built especially for this very
purpose. However even so these Romans who must have been
wealthy to be able to afford such luxury would more often
than not attend the various facilities available to the
public in the various towns and cities that existed at that
time throughout the Roman Empire.

Even so it was very much the case that these small
bathhouses, which in many cases may well have been
privately owned, were often actually available to the
public usually for a fee which was often quite reasonable.

The very large public baths, were owned of course by the
state and often covered in terms of space the equivalent
today of several large city blocks. The fees payable for
both types of baths were in the main quite reasonable, and
usually within the budget of most free Roman males. As the
typical Roman workday would start at dawn work was often
completed by the early afternoon. About 2:00-3:00 pm, it
was the custom that men would visit the baths and often
plan to stay for several hours being engaged in sport,
bathing, and general conversation, usually after which they
would be well rested and relaxed to enjoy dinner. Today
whilst you cannot go and enjoy a roman bath so easily you
can still get a similar and indeed if not better form of
relaxation that is both Hydro therapy and Hydro massage
from a Hot Tub or Jacuzzi Style Spa.

The Hydro Therapy mixture of warm soothing water mixed with
massage and buoyancy helps to deliver a sensation that
relaxes the mind and body, but also helps to soothe and
heal.

With properly designed jets strategically placed in the Hot
Tub Jacuzzi Style Spa for maximum benefit, each & every Hot
Tub offers supreme therapeutic support in a carefree
setting. The Spa treatment Increases blood flow and aids
circulation, reducing & relieving muscle strain, soreness,
pressure and tension throughout your body. Clearly
something that the Romans were very well aware of.
