Soaking in Relaxation: Your Spa at Home

25 Feb

Your Spa at Home Blog by BATHLINE

There’s nothing quite like unwinding in a bubble bath at the end of a long day. There’s something about baths that have the power to make us relax and let go of the stress and tension of the day that has passed. In fact, baths have had this effect on us for a very long time: starting out as a scared ritual, baths were taken as a very serious act.Therefore in this article, we’re going to tempt you back to the importance of making time for baths by helping you create you very own “Spa Experience” from the comfort of your own home.

This Spa Experience is going to incorporate elements from your entire bathroom – with your bath as the final cherry on top.

 

Plan your day

For the perfect spa experience, you’ll want to have everything prepared in advance. Clean bathroom, fresh towels and a portion of time set aside for no interruptions. White is the colour of purity, so have on hand a selection of warm, fluffy white towels.

Bathroom Towel and Flowers

Spas have impeccably pristine interiors, this is because mess means stress! Here at Bathline we have a selection of beautiful storage solutions as well as stunning shelving – improve your bathroom and organise all that clutter.

Start with your surroundings

Spas are known for their relaxing environments. Therefore before you even think about hopping in the tub, try to make your bathroom a more soothing place. Think neutral colours and earthy tones. Nature is relaxing so try to emulate those colours in your bathroom: why not even add some shrubbery. Plants are scientifically proven to reduce stress: they produce oxygen, balancing the air and promoting a sense of peace and tranquility. Aesthetically pleasing and brightening, a few quick additions to your room will change your mood in no time!

Next, set the ambience

Lighting, lighting, lighting! Bathline supply a selection of backlit mirrors and cabinets, providing a much more calming and gentle glow as opposed to your main lighting overhead. However, we all know the most calming lighting of all and the best way to set the mood is with candles. Space your candles throughout your bathroom to get an all around gentle radiance.

The scene is set

Leave all mobiles and electronic devices outside the bathroom or have them silenced so you have no interruptions. Now, it’s time for your bath! Get the water running hot and indulge in all the perks you’d find at a traditional spa: bubble baths, scrubs, hair masks and face masks. You can even bring some wine or perhaps a cup of lemon tea.
