5 reasons for not getting rid of your bathtub

Relaxing with a good bath after a hard day's work, or after fighting with the little ones in the house, is one of those little pleasures in life that we shouldn't give up. But due to lack of time and sometimes lack of space, we do without an element that can bring us countless benefits: the bathtub.

If the problem is time, the only advice is to manage it better in order to find time every day to pamper yourself a little. When the drawback is space, you don't necessarily have to say goodbye to the bathtub, there are almost always solutions. But if you still need more reasons to convince yourself that it is an essential element in any bathroom, here are a few.

The benefits of a spa at home

Taking a bath is good for blood circulation and blood pressure, as well as helping to relieve stress, help you sleep better and give you beautiful skin. But if you opt for a whirlpool bath, those benefits are multiplied.

If you already have one, perfect, I'm sure you're not willing to give it up. But if yours is a conventional bathtub, you can always replace it, there are models with hydromassage that don't take up much more space.

A corner to forget about everything

Who doesn't like to have a little corner at home to disconnect. For some it can be a reading space, for others a cinema room or a space where you can simply be outdoors. With a bathtub it is very easy to create that corner that invites us to relax.

With just a few plants, a few vases with bamboo, some aromatic candles or a bowl with white stones, you will have created that zen corner that you sometimes need so much.

A stylish bathroom

If there is one thing that bathtubs have, it is that they are capable of creating elegant and stylish atmospheres. And that does not mean that we are talking about classic bathrooms. Nowadays, you can find really attractive designs in very sophisticated lines.

In this sense, freestanding bathtubs are ideal. It doesn't matter whether their lines are reminiscent of bygone times or whether they have rounded, oval or right-angled shapes. Not only do they become a focal point, they also add character to the bathroom.

A place for the little ones to play

When there are small children at home, the bathtub is a must. However, it is often decided to replace it with a shower when they are older. However, it should not be forgotten that the bathtub is a great play area that they can enjoy even when they are "older". Besides, sometimes they need to relax too, so why not let them enjoy it as much as the grown-ups?

Also in small spaces

If you are planning to renovate your bathroom and it is not very big, you don't have to say goodbye to the bathtub. There are always solutions that will allow you to make the most of the space. Built-in, corner or asymmetrical bathtubs take up much less space than freestanding bathtubs and provide the same feeling of elegance.

Only if the bathroom is really small, it would be advisable to replace the bathtub with a shower. But before making a decision, the advice is to measure very well and keep in mind that a bathtub does not necessarily have to be huge to be able to enjoy it. Have we convinced you?
