Inventée dans les années soixante-dix par l'américain Jacuzzi, la balnéothérapie ou hydromassage consiste à injecter de l'air dans l'eau du bain au moyen d'injecteurs placés au fond et sur les flancs de la baignoire. Les bulles ainsi produites assurent un brassage de l'eau et en éclatant, un hydromassage sur le corps, plus ou moins énergique selon le débit d'air [...] Les modèles les plus sophistiqués de baignoires de balnéothérapie sont équipés d'appareils de commande électronique programmant la durée du bain, l'ozonisation, le cycle autonettoyant ainsi que des changements de puissance assurant un massage variable. 3, record 3, French, - baignoire%20de%20massage
