Bathroom luxuries are a must have for anyone who loves to pamper themselves. Why burn yourself or freeze while the water is adjusting to the right temperature. You can have a Grohe's Wireless Shower system that allows you to start your shower and adjust the temperature from anywhere in the house. A simple beep signals you that the shower is ready at the temperature at which you set it. A special thermostat keeps your shower at the same temperature even if someone is doing the laundry.

You never need to go to the Hot Springs or Mud Baths in Napa, California if you have your own luxury spa. The Temazkal by BainUltra has dry heat and aromatherapy (essential oils that can affect your mood or health). The Ayoura is a tub that allows you to add mud or seaweed. When you are done with your bath, you can call your masseuse convert the tub to a massage table.

If you can't decide between watching your favorite program or relaxing in your bathtub, you should consider mounting a recessed TV mirror in your bathroom. When it is on, it is a TV. When it is off, it is a mirror. No one will know how you like to indulge yourself while you are soaking in the tub. This is one of Oprah's favorites, so you know it must be great.

Oprah also likes the Kohler DTV II Custom Shower. It can be customized to your taste. You can add music, ambient lighting, chromatherapy (changing the color of the water to correspond with your emotional state) and steam that are controlled by a digital interface with the push of a button.

If you don't have time for a massage therapist, you can always relax in a Jacuzzi Morphosis Gamma hydrotherapy tub. It has a four-jet whirlpool including back-jets that can be controlled by a remote control. There are also colored spotlights that glow in sequence. This company is in Paris, but I'm sure they would help you out for a price.

After your bath or shower, it is always a treat to wrap yourself in a heated towel. Jacuzzi has a Home Spa Towel Warming Drawer that can be installed into a standard cabinet.

The finishing touch to any luxury bathroom is personal taste. Many products can be added to a bathroom to make it extra special. Decorating your bathroom using marble tile and other natural stones is one way to do this. They come in many colors and patterns and add a magnificent image.
