The word “spa” originates from the Belgian city of Spa, which was known for its hot springs since Roman times. During the 16th century, the city became a popular destination for European royalty who sought the therapeutic benefits of thermal waters.
Over time, the word “spa” came to be used to refer to any place that offered therapeutic and relaxing treatments, regardless of whether or not it had thermal waters. Nowadays, the word is widely used around the world to refer to these places, which are considered a refuge to relieve stress and improve health and well-being.

Plants can help bring life and freshness to the bathroom environment. Choose plants that thrive in humid, low-light environments, such as ferns, peace lilies, and aloe vera. According to Feng Shui, in addition to bringing beauty to the bathroom environment, plants also bring good energy and filter the negative energies present in the room, as it is a space designed to eliminate impurities from the body.

  • Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese practice that seeks to harmonize the environment to create a positive flow of energy, called “chi”, and promote balance and happiness in our lives..

2-Bathroom lighting

Changing the bathroom lighting, replacing lights and placing them in the correct locations, will bring a new dimension of relaxation to your bathroom.

In addition to general lighting, you can add localized light points to illuminate specific areas of the bathroom, such as the sink and mirror. A good option is to use sconces or LED spots built into the ceiling. Be sure to choose a lamp with an appropriate color temperature to avoid shadows and distortions in the mirror image.
Consider adding a soft light to create a more relaxing mood in the bathroom, such as an LED strip light or a lamp with a warmer color bulb. This type of light is ideal for moments of relaxation and to create a more welcoming atmosphere.

General lighting should be uniform and bright, while localized lighting should be more focused on specific areas, such as the mirror and sink. Accent lighting can be used to highlight decorative elements such as niches and shelves and soft light for relaxation.
