The products on show at The Kohler Store were not designed simply for the sake of technology, however. Rather, technology has been adapted to improve our well-being by providing an enhanced, fully customized bathing experience.

Lynn Schrage, marketing manager of The Kohler Store, says more and more people are embracing the concept of a full sensory experience.

"People today are often well travelled and familiar with resort spas. Our consultants can help you re-create that experience at home by designing a bathroom with technology that is personalized to suit your needs. For example, your bathroom may feature the new DTV¢ II digital control shower system or the Fountainhead¢ bath with VibrAcoustic¢ technology, which was released at the recent K/BIS show."

Both these products can be fully customized with preset programs. The DTV II combines water, light, music and steam, and the VibrAcoustic technology adds physical vibrations that slow the heart rate to provide a very relaxing bathing experience.

Schrage says customers can see many Kohler products in action at The Kohler Store in the Merchandise Mart, Burr Ridge or Glenview. The Burr Ridge store is next to Kohler Waters Spa, which means you can even experience the different bathing products before you make a decision.

The Kohler Store is situated at 100 Merchandise Mart, Chicago, IL 60654; 1180 N Milwaukee Ave, Glenview, IL 60025; and 775 Village Center Dr, Burr Ridge, IL 60527.

Four VibrAcousticâ¢ settings are designed to envelop the bather in a multi-sensory environment that synchronizes music, vibration and light with water to provide a highly relaxing bathing experience. These original compositions were created in collaboration with a renowned sound therapist and are specially choreographed for this bath to optimize the VibrAcoustic effect, in which the body is led into a state of complete relaxation. Two massaging beat experiences add even more physical vibration that can be adjusted to the desired level of intensity.
