How do Therapeutic Hot Tubs Hydrotherapy Jets Work? 
Water is drawn into the suction fitting by the pump, and then pressurized water is forced out the discharge line where it is compressed through a small orifice in the jet increasing velocity. The water is released into the jet body. As the water is expanding in the jet body, it creates a vacuum. The air that is drawn in from the surface of the tub through the air control is mixed and blown out and into the spa. The millions of small bubbles mixed with hot water directed over the person using the hot tub, creates a very soothing massaging effect called "Hydrotherapy”. The air control valves are what control the amount of air injected into the system, allowing the spas hydrotherapy effect to work.
