Spa Sanctuary
Transform the bathroom into a personal retreat
with tranquility and style | By Cara Trump
As home spas become more popular, the personalization of those spas becomes more extravagant. Spa tubs aren’t just for relaxation and body wellness anymore. Personal style has become a major component of the purchase and design, as well as the goal for the ultimate sensory experience.
Kohler’s Vibracoustic spa tubs blend sound vibrations with music for an auditory and sensory combination bath experience to “feel the music,” while the BubbleMassage uses powerful bubble jets to work key points of the body. Effervescence uses tiny, champagne-like bubbles and mood lighting for a soothing and relaxing spa environment in the home.
Other companies, like MTI Whirlpools and BainUltra, provide spa tubs built for style and utility. With different therapy method options and clean, sophisticated styles to choose from, having a chic spa sanctuary is made simple.
MTI’s custom-designed and individually manufactured tubs come in four types: soaking tubs, air baths and whirlpools, or a combination of whirlpool and air therapy. With almost 30 colors to choose from, matching a tub to personal style is not hard to achieve.
BainUltra’s ThermoMasseur baths are designed for the health benefits. They can improve sleep, mood, and even energy levels while combining a sleek elegance to fit any bathroom, and are perfect for creating an in-home spa. “You can add oil, salts, mud, anything you want, and it stays in the tub,” said Jose Goitia, owner of Euro Bath, “Unlike whirlpools with pipes, they have air channels with tiny jets for cleanliness.” The Ayoura, which BainUltra boasts as its most advanced ThermoMasseur tub, provides a truly encompassing massage with three levels of air jets and a three-level footrest.
When it comes to home spas, fashion and function can coexist, along with the ultimate in stimulating the senses.
