The Royal series whirlpool bathtub combines the traditional free-standing design with a contemporary touch of simple forms and shapes. Soaking bathtubs are a more traditional style bath tub without water or air systems. Soaking in warm water will sooth the body, boost cardiac output, lower blood pressure and improve circulation. Water also hydrates the skin and helps pores eliminate toxins. Freestanding tubs are meant to be proudly displayed rather than crowded in a corner and add character to your bathroom.
