In addition to promoting a balance between mind and body, many of todays most popular wellness features utilize different forms of heat therapy that will help you to beat the cold temps all winter long. Following are a few favorites that every luxury homeowner can appreciate this time of year.

High-Tech Shower
These days, showers are for much more than simply bathing. A state-of-the-art rain shower with wall-mounted jets is like getting a hot water massage where you can let your daily stress wash away. When you add in smart features, like synchronized lights and music, you have a fully-immersive experience that will leave you feeling warm and rejuvenated each day.

Infrared Sauna
Studies have shown that regularly using a sauna may offer a wide range of health benefits, such as flushing toxins from the body and helping with weight loss and theres no denying thats a good thing. If your biggest ailment is simply being cold to the bone, however, then you too might want to consider having a sauna at home where you can bask in the dry heat.

Hydrotherapy Pool
From relaxation to pain relief, anyone whos felt the benefits of soaking in a hot bath has experienced hydrotherapy in its simplest form. Of course, there are far more complex types of water therapy that you can introduce to your wellness area, such as a heated whirlpool tub with water massage features that soothe muscle soreness. Another option is a larger hydrotherapy pool, which is often kept around 95-degrees and used for light exercises.

Steam Room
For those who prefer humidity to dry heat, a steam room will give you many of the same benefits of a sauna but with considerably more moisture in the air. While incorporating a steam session into your daily routine can be enjoyed year-round, youll probably appreciate it that much more at the end of a cold winters day.
