Description
There once was a time when you could only enjoy the pleasures of a pool, steam bath, sauna or whirlpool in a hotel or specialised institution. Over the past ten years, a new trend has been set; that of 'wellness in your own home'. We have an increasing desire to enjoy the blessings of water in the privacy of our own homes. A growing conciousness of physical and spiritual health and a quest for pleasure and relaxation in order to compensate for busy, stressful professional activities explain this trend. Pools, steam-baths, saunas and whirlpools fit this trend perfectly: they have a soothing effect on the mind and body. They combine the refreshment of a health cure with the relaxation of a massage. Pool Dreams explains this very clearly. Text in English, Dutch and French.
