Bathtubs Warm You Up

Plus, a lot of the accessible bathtubs on the market today can actually be customized to function like luxury bathtubs. That means you can enjoy awesome upgrades like bubbling jets and even seating equipped with a warmer.

Bathtubs Are Safe

People are often concerned that a wheelchair bathtub won’t be safe for users with limited mobility, but that’s not the case at all.

Good, ADA-approved bathtubs are typically equipped with many safety features, such as non-slip flooring, thermometers that tell you the water temperature, and a design that always keeps the user’s head above water.

Thus, as long as they’re used appropriately, accessible bathtubs can be completely safe.

Bathtubs Get You Clean

A handicap bathtub is also nice in that it allows users to fully submerge their bodies in the water all at once. This can make it easier to complete a full, deep cleaning of the entire body, especially for people who can’t easily turn or reach all areas of the body while in the shower.
