Cedar Wood Hot Tubs
In this world of plastics and synthetics, it’s refreshing to find something made of wood. Riviera’s traditional hot tubs are classic in their design and simplicity.
Made from Canadian kiln-dried cedar, chosen for its clear grain, long-term stability and natural resistance to decay, these hot tubs have both an aesthetic and tactile quality, which results in a truly unique bathing experience.
Natural wooden tubs are a pleasure to use and a beautiful addition to any garden landscape, be they freestanding or built into new or existing patios or timber decking. In an increasingly hectic and stressful world, a tub oers a peaceful and soothing refuge any time of the year in the privacy of your garden.
The craftsmanship of Riviera’s tubs simply can’t be found in mass-produced plastic spas, and the touch, feel and smell of beautiful cedar wood is unparalleled.
Hydrotherapy
The benefits of hydrotherapy have been known for thousands of years. Ancient civilisations enjoyed bathing in hot water springs and hydrotherapy was born.
There are three factors at work in a hot tub – heat, buoyancy and massage – and combined they create a perfect environment that can be used to help treat a number of ailments from arthritis to minor sports injuries. Immersing

yourself in hot water raises the body’s temperature and causes blood vessels to dilate, which results in increased circulation and endorphins, the body’s natural painkillers. It can also help reduce blood pressure and high sugar levels.
Riviera’s hot tubs are also deeper than conventional acrylic types, making you more buoyant. Step in and you lose over half your body weight, relieving pressure on joints and muscles and creating a relaxing sensation you can’t get in a normal bath.
Pure Pleasure
The massaging action in the water is created from the bubble bench and jets positioned in the tub, which send a mixture of warm water and air through to the jet nozzles. These gently massage away all the aches and pains caused by the daily stresses of today’s fast pace of life. Simply soaking in a hot, swirling tub will leave you mentally and physically relaxed. Twenty minutes in the morning can give you a fresh start and a long soak before bed can help improve sleep.
Rejuvenating Saunas
Riviera don’t just supply their own British-made hot tubs, but also design and build bespoke sauna and steam rooms. Mixing the sauna and steam experience with a cold plunge or bathing in one of their hot tubs will give a true wellness experience. Riviera also build repair rooms for professional athletes using the same mix of experiences: relax, recover, and repair.
Used on a regular basis, a sauna has many benefits. Saunas detoxify, cleanse and rejuvenate your body and skin through perspiration. They stimulate respiration and circulation, relax tired and aching muscles and the dry heat of the sauna also relieves congestion.
Relaxation time is such an important commodity and having a sauna or hot tub will provide you with somewhere to destress and unwind day or night. They can also be used as a place to spend quality time with friends and family. Contact Riviera to discuss the options for your bespoke steam or infrared sauna.
