It reads to me that you are about to spend a large pile of money - and may not be happy with the results. Why do you need a pool? Is it for swimming laps? I cannot see it for any other reason. BUT - if it is just for therapy, why not invest in a much cheaper spa? I owned a spa for 14 years before moving here and am now looking for another. Keeping my water at a certain temperature was cheap. Because your purchase is connected to something medical, if a doctor writes you a prescription for a spa, that will eliminate the taxes associated with the purchase. By the way, they build swimming lap type spas, too. Hope I helped you!

I have difficultly with walking and most exercises. My doctors have suggested pool walking.When I have tried it with the local pools, it does helps me to move around better when I'm in water up to my shoulders since the water provide bouncy for me to walk. The main problem is someone has to drive me to the pool and pick me up, I need help with my walker and it is difficult to get in and out of the car. The pools have various schedules and I can't always get there when times are available. Sometime I get there and they are crowded. Walking the pool is basically the only exercise I can do with the lest amount of pain. I like the idea of a spa, but I don't think it would work for walking. I thank you for your suggestion.
