Is a Swim Spa Right for Me?

March 13, 2023 By Lindsay Surmacz

The swim spa has become increasingly popular in recent years as a way to stay in shape, relax, and unwind at home. They offer a convenient and versatile way to enjoy the benefits of swimming, exercise, and hydrotherapy in a smaller, more manageable package than a traditional pool. But with so many options available on the market, it can be difficult to know if a swim spa is the right choice for you. 

At Goodall Pools & Spas, we’ve seen how our customers benefit from swim spas physically and mentally. Here, we explore some of the key factors to consider when deciding if a swim spa is right for you.

Swim Spa Benefits

A swim spa is a great investment for anyone looking to stay in shape, ease stress, and enjoy the best of both a pool and a hot tub in a more convenient package. Below are just a few of the benefits of swim spas.

1. Low-Impact Exercise

One of the major benefits of swim spas is that they provide an excellent workout for your entire body. The resistance of the water provides a low-impact form of exercise that is easy on your joints. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced swimmer, swim spas allow you to adjust the current to your desired level, making it an ideal workout for people of all fitness levels. 

Since the water helps support the body while also providing resistance, swim spas are a great option for people with mobility issues and or trouble with traditional exercises.

2. Targeted Hydrotherapy

Another major benefit of swim spas is that they provide a convenient, relaxing way to unwind after a long day. The jetted massage system helps relieve stress and tension in your muscles. The built-in seating allows you to sit back and soak in the warm water, providing a therapeutic experience that helps you relax after a day at work or an intense workout. 

3. Useable Year-Round

Unlike a traditional pool, a swim spa can be used all year round as it is equipped with a heating system that keeps the water at a comfortable temperature, allowing you to enjoy your swim spa even on cold winter days. This means you can exercise and unwind all year round, regardless of the season.

Things to Consider When Choosing a Swim Spa

When you’re browsing swim spas, there are a few key factors to consider. One of the most important things to think about is your main purpose for the swim spa. Will you use it primarily for exercise? For relaxation? For entertaining? The answer to this question will guide your choice of size and placement.

Another important factor to consider is the jet configurations that different swim spas come with. Different jet systems offer different levels of resistance and massage, so it’s important to find one that meets your needs. The swim spas we carry at Goodall include multiple jet systems that enable both high-energy workouts and soothing hydromassage for relaxation and stress relief.

The Swim Spa That is Right for Me

In conclusion, swim spas are a great investment if you…

  • Want to improve your physical and mental well-being.
  • Enjoy the best of a pool and hot tub in one convenient package.
  • Want to swim year-round (even during Pennsylvania winters).
  • Entertain friends and family in the comfort of your home.
