As summer ends and fall begins to creep in, cooler mornings and evenings start to appear. At LCR- The Plumbing Warehouse, they have the perfect solution to help start your mornings, or end your evenings; with a Mr. Steam steam shower. During those warmer months the last thing most people want to think about is sitting in a hot steam room when you could just as easily walk outside in the Louisiana heat and humidity. But as fall and winter appear, a nice steam bath can awaken the senses and start the day with renewed vigor.
“There are so many benefits associated with steam,” Kristina Hatfield, Senior Showroom Consultant at LCR says. “I think most people shy away from steam because of the environment we live in. It’s hot, it’s humid; what’s the point in steam?”
Steam, however, is so much more than sitting in a hot, humid room. Steam bathing has over forty benefits for the body! From improving breathing, to easing a sore throat- the hot mist from a steam bath can help your respiratory health.
“It’s also great for the skin,” Holly Donaldson, Showroom Consultant adds. “It opens up the pores, hydrates dry skin, and leaves you with a healthy glow.”
Holistic health, physical wellness, and the overall well-being of a person are just a few more ways in which steam bathing can improve your life.
Steam doesn’t require a separate room, like a sauna. Steam can actually be added to an existing shower.
“We can help you determine just what you need for your bathroom,” Melody English, Showroom Consultant, says. “It’s not as simple as saying, I want a steam shower and picking one up. We can determine- based on the materials you are using for your shower- what size generator you need so that you have a comfortable experience. We can also help you decide what kind of package is best for you. From all the bells and whistles to just a simple on/off control.” Packages for steam vary; from the basic of needs to the gadget loving techie. Mr. Steam offers something for everyone.
LCR Manager, Roderick Johnson talks about the technology behind Mr. Steam. “What’s really neat about the products they offer is the iSteam control. Just like with smart phones, the iSteam control is the smart control. You can control everything from temperature, time, aroma infusion, lighting, and audio sound with the swipe of your finger. You can even do it from your iPhone via the iSteam app.”
Feeding a technological driven society, Mr. Steam has made it easy to use from anywhere you are. “What I like about the iSteam app,” Cindy Dunn, Showroom Administrative Assistant, says, “Is that you can be on your way home and you can start the steam shower. It’s knowing that once you get home, relaxation awaits.”
To add to the relaxation, Mr. Steam also offers aromatherapy and chromoatherapy you can add to the steam for an enhanced experience. Pure essential oils, available in seven different fragrances, help revitalize the bathing experience and bringing color into the shower helps relax the mind.
“Don’t forget the music, also.” Kristina says. Whether you stream music from your phone via the iSteam control or you simply add Mr. Steam’s AudioWizard- a Bluetooth Audio System that you can pair up to eight devices and four inshower speakers- you’ll never miss a beat. The AudioWizard can also be installed in other areas of the home other than the shower. Use them outside on the patio or in the kitchen, the AudioWizard allows you to stream your music from just about any room.
In addition to steam, Mr. Steam also offers heated towel warmers. Perfect for those cold morning, a towel warmer gives you that fresh from the dryer feeling. A built in aromatherapy oil well is available on some models to enhance the freshness of your towels. Whether you are looking to add steam to remove toxins from the body, increase circulation, relieve stress, or boost metabolism, stop by and see Kristina, Holly, or Melody at LCR- The Plumbing Warehouse. They will help walk you through the process of deciding what you need so that you enhance your morning and evening routine as well as your life!
