Why is this good?

Investing in a house you live in is never a bad choice. What is a very smart move is turning your cellar or your attic, or if you have some other free space in your home, into a spa. This will provide relaxation for you and your whole family, but it will also increase the value of your house if you plan on selling it in the future. This is something that just a few fortunate ones own in their homes, but it doesn't necessarily mean that you have to be a billionaire, if you want to own one in your house. Decent incomes and savings can cover expenses like this, as there is a lot of equipment that will satisfy your domestic needs –it need not be of professional quality.

Basics: Preparing the space

Cleaning the space you intend to turn into your personal spa is inevitable, especially because hygiene is very important. Tiling the floor with smooth tiles will make it easier for cleaning and there are a lot of different options on tender, including many patterns and colors. If your floor is already tiled, this is one less expense for you. A parquet has its own advantages – you wouldn't have to install floor heating underneath the floor surface because wood is much warmer. Just do the sanding and you are ready to move onto other things.

Relax in your own sauna

Relaxation is why you do this, so make it a real deal by putting a sauna in.  Conventional saunas or infrared saunas – it is your choice. The difference between the two is that the first one is heating the air and the second one is heating the objects found in it. You can purchase one in various sizes, so it won’t be a problem finding the right place where to put it. Pick a corner where you want to install it and make sure that there is a window near that place or an air conditioning vent. Proper installations will avoid the mold on your walls and the ceiling. Half an hour spent in spa weekly can improve your health a lot and it is a solution, if you have respiration problems.

More enjoying and more activity

After you are finished with sweating in your sauna, you should make a short pause and head to the shower, or a hot tub. Hydrotherapy after a day of hard work is really pleasing to the whole body as well as your mind – it will take all the stress away. Adjust your hydro massagers according to your own needs over a cup of hot tea or hot chocolate, while you are chatting with your friends and family. Hot tubs are designed to handle more than one person at a time and hygiene is kept with various products. You are not going to change the water in your tub every time you get out. Instead just put a cleansing pill once you are finished and in a couple of hours it will be ready for further use.  

Houses with enough free space can even comfortably hold an inside pool. Complete your spa day at home by taking a swim in your own pool. Sounds pretty good! Additional physical activity couldn't possibly harm you. Keep in mind that this is not a regular swimming pool, so according to some spa standards, it shouldn't be that deep, but it should be rather narrow and lengthy. Tile it with mosaic pool tiles and add a new dimension to your personal spa.

A smart move

A very important issue to be considered when installing a hot tub or an inside pool is the plumbing system, think of it before you go and purchase anything. So, plan your plumbing system carefully.

Extras

Fans of tanning who can afford a sun-bed – which can be found for a price that is affordable – should put one in their spas. Overuse of tanning beds can be dangerous but occasional tanning can be useful during spring time, because you can prepare your skin for future sunny days. This will help you avoid sunburns, of course, with smart dosing.

All the sundries

Bathrobes, soft towels, fragrance oils and candles are a great finishing touch to a complete spa experience. Don’t forget peeling body lotions and hydrating creams that will give your body a glowing effect after all of these special treatments. If this doesn't make you feel good, relaxed and satisfied, nothing will!
