What Makes a True Hydrotherapy Hot Tub?
For hydrotherapy to work, a hot tub needs more than warm water:
-
Quality Jets (not just quantity): Placement, design and power matter more than “lots of jets.”
-
Adjustable Pumps: You should be able to tailor intensity to your needs.
-
Ergonomic Seating: Seats should support your body so jets hit the right muscles.
-
Strong Circulation: Keeps water clean and ready for frequent use.
If a hot tub doesn’t have these fundamentals, it’s a bath with bubbles – not hydrotherapy.
Comparing the Types of Hot Tubs
When researching hydrotherapy, you’ll see a wide range of hot tubs. Here’s the breakdown:
-
Inflatable hot tubs – Affordable, portable, and fun, but lack powerful jets or ergonomic seating. Good for casual soaking, not therapy.
-
Wood-fired hot tubs – Rustic charm and natural heating, but no pumps or hydrotherapy jets. Relaxing, but not therapeutic.
-
Hard-shell hot tubs – Fully self-contained, with pumps, jets, filtration, and insulation. This is where real hydrotherapy begins, but quality varies massively between brands.
👉 For true therapeutic relief, only a well-engineered hard-shell spa will deliver results.
