A bathing device for thermotherapy includes, attached to a bathtub, a magnetized hot water production device through which hot water is passed so as to be magnetized and an aeration device that aerates said magnetized hot water.

A pedicure spa may include a basin and a lift mechanism that vertically moves the basin between a raised position in a lowered position while maintaining the basin in a single orientation. The pedicure spa may additionally include a chair, wherein the lift mechanism vertically moves the basin and the chair while maintaining the basin and the chair in a single orientation. The pedicure spa may linearly translate the chair relative to the basin while the basin and the chair are in a raised position. The pedicure spa may sense an obstruction below the basin and automatically interrupt lowering of the basin.

The present disclosure discloses an air passage unit for a massaging pool. The air passage unit comprises an air passing portion, a first air connecting portion, and a first fastening structure. The first air connecting portion comprises two first air connecting openings configured to be in communication with the air passing portion, the first fastening structure is configured to be detachably connected to the massaging pool, and the two first air connecting openings are disposed on the first fastening structure so as to enable the two first air connecting openings to be synchronously connected to or detached from the massaging pool through the first fastening structure being connected to or detached from the massaging pool. The present disclosure further discloses an air passage system for a massaging pool. The air passage system comprises an air pump, and an air passage unit. The air passage unit comprises an air passing portion, a first air connecting portion, and a control mechanism. The air passage unit is configured to be alternatively in an inflated state or an exhausted state. When the air passage unit is in the inflated state, a first passing passage is in communication with external air, and a second air passing passage is in communication with the first air connecting portion. When the air passage unit is in the exhausted state, the first air connecting portion is in communication with the first air passing passage through the control mechanism, and the second air passing passage is in communication with the external air through the control mechanism.
