Styles for the rich
It appears that the financial crisis has not affected the demand for exquisite en suite bathrooms, states Karen Howes, London based interior designer. She knows about the most indulgent bathrooms because she designs them, complete with heated floors, under lit, scented double ended baths with aquarium features throughout. There is nothing that she hasn’t seen after working with members of the “rich list”. There is no stopping the positive direction of bathroom design now. Baths can made from pure glass, brightened with underwater lighting, focused on a barrage of hydro jets.

Got Hay fever ?
From 2001 to 2005, doctors diagnosed a third more patients with hay fever. While it could be that doctors are more familiar with hay fever and therefore diagnose it more competently, researchers who performed the study believe that doctor awareness is only one reason for the increase in hay fever sufferers. Another reason is that the condition has genuinely gone up.
Although hay fever is not always very dangerous, it is known to be one of the most common medical health problems today and numbers of sufferers is rising.
Hay fever occurs mostly during spring and summer. Hay fever is a type of allergic rhinitis caused by plant pollen or spores. Allergic rhinitis is a condition where an allergen (something that causes an allergic reaction) is inhaled and causes the inside of your nose inflamed (swollen).
Hay fever affects the nose, sinuses, throat and eyes and symptoms include - sneezing, a runny nose and itchy eyes.
Although there is no known 'cure' for hay fever, there are many ways to aid symptom relief, there are a wide choice of medications from your local GP or pharmacist to help, but there are simple things you can do which can help soothe and relieve the discomfort.
Pollen grains from a variety of common plants can cause hay fever.
Steam inhalation can assist in reducing symptoms of hay fever, by increasing air moisture with a humidifier or a steam shower. Benefits are usually felt within 5-10 minutes and the addition of essential oils such as; eucalyptus, lavender, rosemary, pine, frankincense, thyme, niaouli, German and Roman chamomile, cajuput, myrtle, tea tree and peppermint. Several essential oils are anti-histaminic such as manuka, orange, tangerine, blue tansy, and lemon. We market a wide range of steam showers, some with the addition of and essential oil dispenser to aid symptoms.
Summer Time Relaxing

Summer time may not be the obvious time for a steam shower or even a sauna, but it's the perfect time of the year to fill up the bath to relax before the start of the day or just before bed.
About 80-90% of people who own a bath and a shower will use the shower for their daily cleansing routine. Springwave now offers the opportunity to add the luxury of relaxation to your bathroom with our beautiful, affordable whirlpool bath.
