Creating Your Backyard Relaxation Retreat
Picture this: As you rise from your cozy bed on a sun-drenched summer morning, a quick glance outside reveals your own personal oasis, carefully crafted to be a haven of tranquility and rejuvenation. Your day begins with an invigorating ice bath, a ritual guaranteed to kick-start your circulation and awaken your mind to the possibilities ahead. Once the day’s demands have been met, you return for a luxurious heat therapy session, either in your stunning Sauna or the soothing embrace of your Spa Pool. In the following paragraphs, we’ll discuss the most important factors to consider when embarking on the journey to acquire your very own slice of paradise.
Planning
The foundation for any successful project is meticulous planning. Consider things such as how much space do you have to fill? What sort of power outlets are currently available outdoors – will you need them upgraded? How much money are you willing to spend on the project? Talking to friends or acquaintances that own the products you’re looking at would be a great way to gain a baseline idea on particulars like, how much do the Spa and Sauna cost to run? These learnings will be invaluable when selecting your Spa/Sauna and ensuring you can maximise its features while remaining within your financial boundaries.
Location, Location, Location
Selecting the right location for your retreat is absolutely essential, and an easy aspect to get wrong. Some people have the idea of tucking their Spa Pool and Sauna away in a hidden corner of the backyard. Unfortunately, we have to consider that if it’s out of sight, it’s often out of mind as well. For this reason, we recommend making your relaxation retreat the centerpiece of your backyard. Ensuring it’s close to the house means you won’t have a freezing walk to and from the space which makes for a more inviting experience. You will also want to consider the fencing requirements of your local body council.
Choosing the right Spa Pool and Sauna
This is the really exciting part. Many people will look to purchase a Sauna and Spa Pool featuring the same outward-facing materials – Cedar being by far the most popular option. This is what really gives the space a retreat feel. However, you will also need to be confident the Sauna and Spa Pool you’re selecting will offer enough space for all of your desired users. You might also consider an Ice bath to really cap off the area, while also completing the hot/cold therapy experience on offer in your private retreat.
Ensuring Privacy
When you head out to your retreat for some well-deserved rest & recovery, the last thing you want to be worrying about is nosey neighbors peeping through the fence. For this reason it’s wise to consider some extra privacy measures. There are many ways to achieve this without compromising the aesthetic of your new investment, such as intelligently-placed plants or privacy screens. If your local council has fencing requirements, you may be able to incorporate a level of privacy into your new fence.
Furnishing your Retreat
A great way to make your relaxation retreat a haven for you and your loved ones is tying in ways for other people to enjoy the space even when they’re not in the Spa Pool or Sauna. This is as simple as finding some comfortable lounge chairs and outdoor furniture to ensure more people can enjoy your space than simply the maximum capacity of your Spa Pool. To really provide the luxury feel, you could place plush bathrobes near the entrance of your retreat, encouraging people entering the area to get as cozy as possible.
Once your private backyard relaxation retreat is expertly arranged, there’s only one final, delightful step to take: Extend an invitation to your closest friends and family, and together, bask in the remarkable rewards that owning a Spa Pool, Sauna, and even an invigorating ice bath can bring! From facilitating a seamless transition to an evening of deep, rejuvenating sleep to enhancing your cognitive abilities, this sanctuary you’ve just created has the transformative potential to breathe new vitality into your life. So, what’s holding you back? It’s time to embark on your shopping journey and embrace the limitless benefits of your own backyard paradise!
