A Home Spa with Storage Boxes

Imagine coming home after a long day at work to find your home spa waiting to overwhelm you in pampered luxury. Your private masseuse has drawn a hot bath, prepared for a massage with scented candles and essential oils, and even put on some relaxing music. Doesn’t that sound wonderful? It certainly does, but let’s get back to reality. Unless you’re financially well-to-do, a complete home span is not likely.

That being said, there’s no reason those of us with moderate to low incomes can’t enjoy some of the finest spa treatments right in our own homes. All we need are the proper methods and supplies, and maybe the help of a partner or spouse, and we’re ready to go. That massage at the end of the day just may not be out of reach after all.

Going to a professional spa is a special treat for most of us. So if you should decide to try some spa treatments at home, put your supplies out of sight in storage boxes. By doing so, preparing for a treatment becomes a time of anticipation. You really begin looking forward to what’s coming as you retrieve your oils, light the candles, and change into more comfortable clothing. If everything is left laying out in the open you might lose the effect of anticipation.

Small plastic storage boxes work well for your special beauty supplies. They protect against the moisture typical of bathrooms, as well as insects that fly around the home. Shelving units that fit over the sink or loo provide an excellent place to put them. There they will be easily accessible without fully displaying all the contents. When you’re ready for that Scandinavian shower you open a box, grab your body wash gel, and enjoy.

Harvia Saunas are manufactured in Finland by ancestral tradition of the Nordic countries. The trees are felled in accordance with environmental standards strictest in Europe. Wood is of spruce in Finland. It is grooved and has interlocking tabs long to avoid heaving during expansions. The origin of wood is critical to the resistance of the sauna. In Finland, the climate is harsh, wood grows more slowly. It is denser and therefore withstand sudden changes in temperature of the sauna. The 4 inner and outer sides of our saunas are paneling.

The walls have a total thickness of 80 mm. They consist of a spruce exterior paneling 15 mm thick thermal insulation with rock wool of 50 mm thick, an aluminum vapor barrier and a paneled interior spruce 15 mm thick. In the saunas of some of our competitors thickness of paneling is only 12.5 mm. They are therefore fragile and will crack quickly. The vapor barrier prevents moisture going into the insulation. No vapor barrier mold and odors quickly appear in the sauna.
