A swim spa can certainly bring a great deal of fun and entertainment to the entire family. Many people are now having a spa installed to help them with some of their health conditions. Those that use a swim spa put it to good use for not only swimming and relaxing but for exercising as well. It has been shown that hydrotherapy is an excellent form of treatment for many different types of health conditions.

For many, the thought of buying a home that has a swimming pool is one of great benefit and something that they look forward to immensely. For others, however, the thought of buying a house with an existing pool is a deal breaker. So, what do you do with an old pool? Do you spend the many thousands to have the pool removed from the premises completely or do you spend even more to have the pool brought back to life with a complete refurbishment? There is a third option.

Most consumers are aware by now of the difference between a swim spa (sometimes referred to as a lap pool) and a regular swimming pool. The main difference is that the swim spa houses a propulsion system in one end of the swim spa that generates current strong enough for a grown person to literally swim against. This resistance allows the swimmer to swim using whatever method they choose - breaststroke, butterfly, and front crawl.
