In the high strung, fast-paced lives we seem to find ourselves in almost daily, it's no wonder we're willing to shell out big bucks for a single day of relaxation at the spa. Thanks to a new innovation, now you won't ever need to leave your to get that experience again.
The Spa Capsule brings the luxuries of the spa into your own home and includes such luxuries as an LCD panel showing preset programs, adjustable steam therapy, infrared therapy, 14 Vichy shower heads, a cooling face breeze, aromatherapy reservoir, music facility and capsule remote control, all for $20,000.
Revealed this year at Hotelympia, a food, service and hospitality show, the Spa Capsule from International Spa Supplies can now be your ultimate escape. Although this isn't their first model, you may have seen these at your local mall to relieve stress from those long shopping days.
An upgrade from the baseline model includes a range of spa treatments in a hydrotherapy tub with 12 Vichy showerheads, voice activation, color therapy lights, ozone therapy, a built-in LCD TV and a radio for $36,000.
I guess if you visit the spa every weekend, this would pay for itself. I just want one because they look like escape pods from Star Wars.
