Let’s be honest, we can all be dealing with some stress in our lives. Just take the latest politics news to rock us and make us rethink everything. Women seem to have so many outlets for relaxation, but what about men? What do you do to relax? Sometimes things are aimed more at women than at men and I don’t think that’s particularly fair. Who says a man can’t indulge in a spa experience and enjoy a little pruning and pampering? So I thought it was time to think about how men can indulge in that spa experience from the comfort of their own bathroom. Here’s a few tips and investments you could consider.
A jacuzzi bath tub
There is nothing quite relaxing than having a long soak in warm water, so why not add to the experience and invest in a jacuzzi bath tub. Who says you have to head to the spa to enjoy one? They can be very relaxing, but the powerful jets can also work towards relaxing stiff and worn out muscles after a tough day. You could even add some salt crystals to the bth that can give off a relaxing scent and aroma to add to the spa experience.
An at home sauna
Heat works well when it comes to relaxation. It can help ease the pain of tired and worn out muscles. However, sometimes jumping in the bath for a long hot soak isn’t practical, so what at the options? You can have at home saunas fitted very easily to your bathroom or home. It might be an investment to your home, but it could be just what you need to experience the at home spa without the need to leave your bathroom.
Candles don’t have to be feminine
For any spa experience candles are an essential part. They can create that wonderful relaxing environment. It would be an idea to invest in some essential oils or burners, or even just scented candles. Choose a scent that is relaxing like lavender. Although, this is your experience so tailor it to your own tastes. Candles can offer you that low lighting that can help relax your mind after a busy day. While they can be seen as feminine, it doesn’t need to be. Just having a few to offer the aroma and lighting will be enough to ensure that you get the best experience.
Consider different ways to utilize the time
While relaxing, why not use the time wisely. Perhaps consider things like listening to audiobooks or some relaxing music. Maybe even reading a new book to ensure you make the most of your time.
Dimmer switches to set the mood
Finally, if candles aren’t your thing don’t despair. You could consider adding a dimmer switch to your bathroom. It can add a modern edge to your bathroom, while offering you the experience of low lighting and ambience.
I hope these ideas help you create a relaxing at home spa experience you can enjoy.
