The hot tub is a modern application of an ancient therapeutic idea, and most people want to take their bath out of hot tub storage and enjoy the relaxing whirlpool feeling.
 
For thousands of years, if you wanted the benefits of hydrotherapy, you typically had to either live around a hot spring area, such as the famed springs of Therma, the Roman Baths of Bath and the many many onsen in Japan.
 
However, that started to change in 1926 with the invention of a water pump by Rachele Jacuzzi. This by itself was not notable, but 22 years later, the Jacuzzi pump business would evolve and develop, culminating in the J-300 in 1948.
 
This pump was of a different design and was invented by Candido Jacuzzi to treat his son Ken’s rheumatoid arthritis between trips to the hospital.
 
The exceptionally painful condition manifests as flare-ups of painful swellings and stiffness in joints, and hydrotherapy is a low-impact form of exercise that helps to relieve joint pressure, tenderness and pain.
 
Once Candido saw the effects, he patented the pump and started to market it as a therapeutic treatment that turned a standard bathtub into a spa with a few minor adjustments.
 
However, this was not the hot tub that most people immediately think of. That came 20 years later in 1968 made by Roy Jacuzzi and was initially known as the Roman Bath, before the names hot tub and Jacuzzi stuck.
 
With the endorsement of actress Jayne Mansfield, who famously had a heart-shaped hot tub in her home, the Jacuzzi became a hit amongst the rich and famous, with larger whirlpool tubs being made as well as larger bathrooms to accommodate them.
 
The only barrier in the way of Jacuzzi was the infighting among the family themselves, which led to the company being sold to Kidde for $70m and since then it has passed from company to company.

A few months ago, we collected a Jacuzzi J335 from a customer near Grimsby in Lincolnshire. Due to them being in the process of moving house, we stored the hot tub until they were ready for delivery to the new property in Cornwall.
We cover nationwide for hot tub removals and relocations, so the distance was no problem for us.
Our customer manages some incredible properties on a holiday rental park at The Bay Talland. They offered our team one of the properties for the night as Cornwall is a two day return trip from our base in Wakefield.
This holiday rental park comprises of around 50 self catering properties of different sizes, most of which include a hot tub. On site there is a heated indoor pool, gym, sauna and stunning gardens. Located right next to the sea and only a few minutes walk to Talland Bay. Some of their properties are also dog friendly, making it ideal for families or couples with plenty of costal trails to explore. Local towns and cities are a short drive including Looe, Polperro and Plymouth. Other popular Cornish beaches like Newquay, St ives, Perranporth and Polzeath are also a short drive away.
My hot tub mover highly recommend The Bay Talland and we thoroughly enjoyed our short stay and we will visit again when in the area.
