Here's all about the art of the perfect bath for your body and soul ? maximising your whirlpool bath experience.
Start with creating private time
Nothing is more disappointing than being disturbed whilst having your private relaxing time. Inform your family that you need a little ?me?-time and that you should not be disturbed unless there is a fire. There's nothing wrong with that; you deserve it. Schedule it. No interruptions.
Temperature
Hot water may feel good and allows you to soak for a little longer, but when water is too hot it dries your skin and it has a tendency to leave you feel tired, not invigorated. If you suffer from ailments or aches and pains, consult your doctor regarding the ideal temperature first.
Music and smells
Look for scents that you like and that remind you of peace, and put some of your favourite music on (make sure the radio is on the other side of the room, away from the water, of course). Soothing sights and smells employ all your senses for a complete experience.
Exfoliation
Finding a nice sponge or a comfortable brush with soft bristles will help you shed those dead skin cells and leave you with a clean and refreshed feeling after your whirlpool bath.
Bath aids
Consider bringing a comfortable bath pillow. Try a wet cloth on your eyes to help them relax. Use bath salts for those aching muscles and joints.
