Aromatherapy

[bethshar]

Does anyone have a Sundance spa with aromatherapy.  Do you smell anything?   I'm wondering if ours doesn't work right or if this feature just is lousy.  Are any of the scents stronger than others?  I don't like the idea of putting scents directly into the water, so I'm hoping to make this feature work for us.

Thanks-

Hey Bethshar

We have tried the Beachcomber aromatherapy and find it doesn't really last long either. You sprinkle large crystals into the water and they disolve. I am told they act like epsom salts...

We bought some of those beads that you put in the air injector/blower compartment.
When the blower is running, there is a faint smell, nothing very impressive so far.  The beads are overpriced in my opinion (about $7.00 for a pack of 2, if I recall).  One scent that they have that we didn't try yet is eucalyptus, maybe that would have been nice when I was recovering from pneumonia a few months ago.   But I certainly can leave the scent thing behind.

We too have a Sundance - and have tried the Tahitian flavour - we could smell it, but it wasn't super strong.

I've heard the lavendar is the most pronounced.

My Dynasty has the same "feature"  its the most worthless option.  The crystals would have to be 4 times as strong to be slightly noticable.  I don't like adding stuff to the water to add armoma, but this doesn't work either. I'm suprised someone hasn't come down on the spa industry for the use of the word therapy.

Probably for the same reason that nobody comes down on the evil one for claiming his spas have the best therapy.  Define therapy, and define what makes it "better".

I pay 4.99 for a two pack.  Most of the scents are faint and don't seem to last long.  So far, I've found lavender is the strongest and lasts a long time.  I have only tried four scents in two years, so I have a little more experimenting to do.

Here in the showroom we use Being (liquids) by Baqua.  It is safe to use with any system and you can add as much or as little as you want.  Not overly oily so they don't gunk up the filters
