I am not so sure. I have found that swimming in the sea definitley raises my blood pressure. The older you get, the more you notice this.
Not likely.
If your assumption is that the salt in the pool water is causing high blood pressure (like a high salt diet), then the answer is definitely, no.
The amount of salt in a saltwater treated pool is very low (around 0.5%, which is one-half of one-percent). This concentration of salt is about half as much as a teardrop (1%) and nearly eight times less than sea water (3.75%).
And since the salt in the water can't be absorbed through your skin, you would have to drink a LOT of pool water while you're swimming to intake any significant level of salt.
I'm not a doctor, but I would like to suggest that everyone eat right, exercise, and see a doctor if you think you have high blood pressure.
And keep swimming - it's great exercise.

ASK YOUR DOCTOR!
Answeryes. there are no concerns with salt water pools. my advice would be to cut back on salt in your diet (obviously) and exercise as often as possible (even if it is sex.. I'm serious!!!!). if you've been avoiding swimming because of the salt water... make up for the time you've lost. :)studies have shown alternative techniques, eg meditation, yoga etc will help with your high BP and i would advise looking into them if you dislike the idea of going on drugs (diuretics, ace inhibitors etc) or have adverse side affects or just stay out of the salt pool and look for alternatives like the Ecosmarte Fresh water pool system

Salt water pools are becoming more common as people find that they are a little more refreshing to swim in. Also, as chlorine tends to bother some, salt pools might be a good alternative.
It could be fatal.
My pool has been surrounded by clay paver's laid on a sand bed for the last 20 years and still looked like new after I gave them a pressure wash.
Varicose veins form when blood pools in the veins.
Mostly underwater brine pools and saltwater springs.
Hydrochloric acid and potasium help alot
Salt water pools
Saltwater makes up a majority of the oceans. It is a habitat for sea life of all sorts. It is also now used in personal pools.
All pools need something to help keep it clean and safe. Chlorine has long been the sanitizer of choice. Saltwater is no different, as the charged cell breaks down Salt in the water into Chlorine.
