The invention relates to a jacuzzi system for thermalism with hydro-/air-massage and halochamber treatments with solions, to be used for the prevention and treatment of cardio-respiratory, osteo-muscular and neuro-motor diseases as well as for improving performance in children, elderly and sportsmen or persons performing intense physical activity. The system consists of a parallelepipedal or circular tight chamber, with ionized windows, with UV filters, having, in central position, a round-, oval- or lagune-shaped basin made of glass fibers and photo-thermal resistive polymer, an aerosol-generating bubbling device with concentrated solution of NaCl, KCl, CaCl, MgCland KI in a mass ratio equal to 7.95 : 1,0 : 0.5 : 0.5 : 0.05, where, through the frits from the bottom side, overheated water vapours are purged to reach the preset levels of solions, the bubbling device being placed in a niche next to the entrance door, where for the control, in real time, of the working parameters, there are used devices with specific sensors coupled to a microcomputer, which also enables modification of the water vapour flow-rate for bubbling, the basin volume is correlated with the halochamber volume and it ranges between 1000 and 10000 liters, with a depth of 0.5…1.5 m, and the working temperature ranges between 35…40°C, on the walls, the system having a network of uniformly zig-zag distributed purging nozzles for hydro- and air-massage, the jets from the two sets of nozzles being obtained by pressurized recycling of the concentrated salt solution from the basin and the solion-charged air from the halochamber, the volume of saturated solution from the bubbling device needs to be higher than 1/20000 of the halochamber volume, and the bubbling device, which has above a limewood grate for retaining drops, is only half filled with the salt solutions which are at the saturation limit, with a temperature within the range of 75…80°C.
