Abstract

Combined swimming pool and therapy pool comprising vertically directed walls forming a single pool having a swimming pool area and an adjacent contiguous therapy pool area. Jet water outlets are directed inwardly from one wall of the swimming pool area, whereby a user can swim in a substantially stationary horizontal position against the force of the water jets. The therapy pool has seats, with additional jets directed inwardly toward the seats. A vertically directed divider is removably mounted between the swimming pool area and therapy pool area, to close off the therapy pool area for separate heating.
