Initially created for hospital use, the air bath massage was developed during the 1980s in Europe to provide a therapeutic action while maintaining the highest hygienic standards. It was introduced to the commercial market a few years later. Signature Hardware carries a large selection of acrylic freestanding air bath tubs, copper air baths, and more.
The mechanism of the air bath system is truly simple. An air blower pushes air towards a distributor, which directs the
air through multiple jets strategically installed within the bathtub. For additional comfort, the air is warmed to body temperature through a heating element that is integrated within the blower.
Each jet of the air massage system is strategically positioned in the bottom of the tub for efficiency and comfort. Contrary to most beliefs, the bather is not sitting on the jets. When you are in the water, the jets are generally positioned to surround your lower back, hips and legs. Therefore, the massage is focused directly on your body where it is most needed. |

| Benefits of air bath massage
|
The use of an air massage system has many benefits, including the following:
- Produces an effect of well-being throughout your entire body.
- Relaxes your muscles while stimulating the production of natural analgesic hormones known as endorphins.
- Relaxes your body making your muscles more receptive to the benefits of the massage.
- Activates the lymphatic system and blood circulation.
- Relieves sore muscles and pain related to arthritis, osteoarthritis, rheumatism and more.
- Releases tension after a hard day of work.
These combined actions create an incomparable therapeutic effect and offer physical relaxation. In addition, most air baths allow you to adjust the speed and type of massage to create an experience that is completely adaptable to your needs, whether soft and caressing or more vigorous.

| Clean, safe system
|
|
The air spa bath system is completely sealed and hygienic. Safety features include:
- Each and every time the system is used; an automatic cleaning system will start and blow very hot air though the jets. This will clean and dry the jet valve system and make sure that all is perfectly sanitized for the next use.
- Anti-return valves prevent water from flowing back into the blower.
- Water relief valves prevent eventual water leakage from reaching the bower.
- Jet valves have integrated check valves to prevent the water from entering the piping, which insures impeccable hygiene of your system.
