How to Create a Spa Experience at Home


Imagine yourself having this experience... every day:  Relaxing and rejuvenating your body, releasing internalized stresses, clearing your mind and reflecting in your own private sanctuary.  If you have spent time at a spa in a steam room, you probably know what this feels like.

Finding time to truly relax can be so difficult. You might enjoy a luxury spa now and then for a steam, a massage and a pedicure, but too often, it's part of an occasional vacation rather than a daily routine. One solution is to create a spa experience at home where you can indulge regularly on your own terms. Here's how and why.

Why create a spa experience at home

Whether your home spa focuses solely on a steam shower or includes all of the elements of SteamTherapy, you'll find that your personal spa can help you achieve the following:

Stress Relief

Life can be tense, especially for those trying to balance work, family and so many responsibilities. Since prolonged stress can have adverse health effects, it’s important to take some time to unwind every day. One way is with a spa experience at home, which will help soothe your nerves and let you forget your worries for a little while.

Better Sleep

Tossing and turning to fall asleep can be extremely unpleasant and leave you exhausted the next day. A spa treatment right before bed, such as an aromatic steam shower, will help you relax, unwind and sleep better, allowing you to perform at your best the next day.

Healthier Skin

Skin can become dry and chapped, especially during the winter months. The fine skin on your cheeks and in front of your ears is especially prone to damage. Spa treatments involving carefully formulated scrubs and creams can help moisturize and exfoliate your skin, improving its elasticity and allowing it to “breathe” better.

Muscle Relaxation

Hot steam can soothe your aching joints and muscles, similar to a massage. Heat soothes nerve endings and warms up the muscles, which, in addition to lessening pain, has the benefit of dissipating stress-causing tension.
