Japanese Soaking Tubs

A Japanese Soaking Tub has literally changed my life. My job comes with a lot of mental stress and physical demands. I could not relax at night and my body ached from the days physical work. After getting the tub and soaking before I sleep, It relaxes my mind and body to the point where I'm out as soon as my head hits the pillow. - Brad P.

One of life's small pleasures is lowering yourself down into a nice hot bath after a days work, a stressful day or even just on a day your hanging around the house relaxing. The hot water soothes your skin and the warmth penetrates right down to your bones and joints. Life slows down as you step in and your world instantly becomes one of pure relaxation.

Japanese Soaking Tubs have become very popular over recent years because of the tremendous pleasure they give and for the many benefits a hot bath provides. The Western version of a Japanese Soaking Tub is a free standing tub which you can place in your current bathroom. There are tubs made out of modern materials such as porcelain or tubs made out of traditional Japanese Hinoki Wood (Hinoki Wood comes from a Hinoki Cypress Tree native to central Japan). There are a wide variety of Japanese Soaking Tub shapes, sizes and price budgets you can choose from.
