The future has an ancient heart

From Friuli to California, the story of the seven Jacuzzi brothers began in 1917 like many others, but it continues in an extraordinary way. From their pen and their hands came pumps, propellers and even aeroplanes until, by chance in 1956, a prototype of the Jacuzzi® hydromassage bath. The "fault" was due to the rheumatoid arthritis of one of the Jacuzzi brothers: to cure it, his father converted a pump mechanism into a therapeutic device. In 1968 Roy Jacuzzi realised the potential of this invention and he gave it a definite shape, by designing the hydromassage system with nozzles integrated into the architecture of the bath, which is still today the basis for each new model. It was called the Roman Bath, as a tribute to the refined thermal culture of the ancient Romans.
