Sensena Aroma Bath Pillows
Just a few decades ago, bathtubs were part of the normal inventory of every bathroom. Nowadays, this is much less the case. Especially in small city apartments the bathtub has been largely replaced by space-saving showers. For most apartment seekers, this does not seem to be a problem. Less than 60% of all Germans today consider a bathtub to be absolutely necessary when looking for a flat. Large windows and good energy levels today are much more important to most. The bathtub increasingly becomes a luxury item again – at least in large cities.
Long before the people had bathrooms, the body care took place at rivers or springs. The oldest bathtubs in private homes were excavated in Cyprus. The stone troughs date back to Mycenaean times and are more than 3,000 years old. The Greeks and later the Romans preferred to build public bath houses. In addition to sinks and plunge basins, there were also steam baths, massages and toilets. The latter were not placed in individual cabins in ancient Rome. Rather, they were arranged side by side and opposite to each other so that one could communicate better with the other guests. In the heyday of the Roman Empire its capital was hopelessly overpopulated. And also the bath houses were bursting at the seams. In order to escape the hustle and bustle of the metropolis, rich Romans then moved into splendid villas on the outskirts of the city. These not only had a floor heating, but were also equipped with spacious bathing and spa areas. Even then people wanted as bright bathrooms as possible. The philosopher Seneca commented mockingly that simple windows in the bathroom were no longer sufficient for the demanding Romans. Rather, the room should be so light-flooded that one is tanned by the sun during bathing.
With the fall of the Roman Empire, the bathing culture in Western Europe was over for the next 1,000 years. For centuries people climbed in the washtub in order to bathe. Special bathtubs were only found in castles and palaces. But they too were rarely used. Because before pipelines existed, the water had to be laboriously heated in boilers and had to be brought in with buckets. In the 19th century most of the houses finally got a water connection. During this time the plumber Karl Ludwig Krauss developed the so-called "People Bathing Tub" from hot-galvanized sheet metal. The portable tub could be placed in the house or behind it and made an important contribution to the improvement of general hygiene.
Today, bathtubs are less about cleaning than about relaxation. And this feeling of letting go can be even intensified. While pleasantly warm water gently envelops the body, fragrant bath essences bring the senses into other worlds. Sensena flavoured bath pillows contain natural, dried herbs, flower fragments or pieces of fruit. When the bath water flows over the small fleece cushions, they unfold their nourishing effect.
