50 Years Of Feeling Good (NAPSA)—Anyone wholoves to get into hot water will be in a whirl about the 50th anniversary of the Jacuzzi hydrotherapy pump. The invention created an industry for outdoor, portable, above ground hot tubs. Although the benefits of hydrotherapy have a long history, what opened the floodgate for moving water were the Jacuzzi brothers. Ma rar Jacuzzi, the hot tub company that started an industry, celebrates the anniversary of its hydrotherapy pump. It began in the early 1900s, when the seven brothers emigrated to the U.S. In 1956, the brothers responded to a family member’s need for pain-relieving hydrotherapy, and the portable hydrotherapy pump was created. That pump would turn any normal bathtub into a relaxing and rejuvenating hydrotherapeutic spa and Jacuzzi became a household name. The key to their success was the incorporation of innovative therapy jets into the sides of the first hot tub. These patented jets produced a 50/50 air to water ratio, providing an experience like nonebefore. Today, celebrating the 50th anniversary, Jacuzzi has become one of the world’s most recognized and largest-selling brands of outdoor hot tubs.
