If you recently moved into a new home, you may have noticed that in some new home communities the lot sizes that homes are being built on have decreased.  These smaller lot sizes mean that families have to be creative with their backyard landscaping.  Thankfully advances in the pool and spa industry have brought products to the market that work in smaller spaces.  Spas and hot tubs like the swim spa hot tub offer families the best of both worlds by providing a viable alternative to an in-ground pool.  Most feature a decent size swim/exercise area around 4 feet deep and 18 feet long with spa seats for relaxation and jets that create a current which can be swam against for exercise.  The price range on these outdoor swim spas varies, depending on what kind of additional features are included.  These types of hot tubs are definitely more expensive than a standard spa, but offer more in the way of swimming features than a typical spa.  According to MedicineNet.com, because there is no impact when swimming, it is an exercise that can be continued for a lifetime. Swimming burns calories and builds muscles and endurance.  The benefit of having a hot tub incorporated into the pool is that the swimmer can sit and relax after the vigorous swim workout and let the massaging jets work out sore muscles.  A swim spa really is the best of both worlds.  Hot tub dealers carry several different models; check out the internet to compare the dealers, as well as prices.
