The main purpose of taking a bath, besides cleaning your body, is relaxation at the end of the day. The bathroom in a typical Japanese home consists of two rooms, an entrance room where you undress and which is equipped with a sink, and the actual bathroom which is equipped with a shower and a deep bath tub. The toilet is usually located in an entirely separate room.
Taking a bath at a Japanese home is very similar to taking a bath at an onsen (hot spring) or a public bath . When bathing Japanese-style, you are supposed to first rinse your body outside the bath tub with the shower or a washbowl. Afterwards, you enter the tub, which is used for soaking only. The bath water tends to be relatively hot, typically between 40 and 43 degrees.
After soaking, leave the tub and clean your body with soap. Make sure that no soap gets into the bathing water. Once you finished cleaning and have rinsed all the soap off your body, enter the bath tub once more for a final soaking. After leaving the tub, the water is usually left for the next member of the house. It is to keep the bath water clean for all members of the house that washing and rinsing is done outside of the actual bathtub.
Modern bath tubs can be programmed to be automatically filled with water of a given temperature at a given time, or to heat up the water to a preferred temperature.

Most people underestimate the importance of a well-designed and comfortable bathroom while in Japan, bathrooms are built with an emphasis on comfort as well as convenience. Japanese bathrooms are rather the place of rest and relaxation than simply washing off. You may feel it surprised, but people here spend at least 30 minutes a day soaking in hot tubs. 
Japanese shower as well as its rituals play a vital role in Japanese tradition. The indulgent aspect of showering appears to be focused, not only at home but also at public bath-houses (sento) and at hot springs (onsen).
For many Japanese, showering is done everyday before heading to bed, so the bathroom is designed in the way to best eliminate stress and refresh the mind. Modern and minimalist style is widely applied in Japanese bathroom design. In an attempt to create a calm and pleasing space, people would prefer natural or neutral color, smooth granite surfaces, and wooden appliances.
A Japanese-style bathroom has a clear focus on relaxation and hygiene
While considering the cleanliness of bathrooms, the typical floor covering made of cotton or polyester now are usually replaced by cypress timber or bamboo mats that radiate faint scent and at the same time, have the antibacterial effect.
Traditional Japanese bathroom is divided into two parts: the undressing area which is usually equipped with a vanity and a sink, and the wetroom. These two spaces separate from each other by a glass door. The toilet is usually situated in another room, as it quite frowned on to have the bathroom in the very same area where you get tidy as well as relax.
Japanese bathrooms set-up is quite different from Western style
The wetroom is a fairly huge area that comprises a bathtub and faucet. It is maintained quite hygienic, with flooring drains as well as a ventilation system to keep the area from wet or musty. Japanese bathtub, known as ofuro, is commonly lined with a wall and installed at a low level (typically 40-50 cm above the floor).
There is a small stool to sit down while washing and also a rain shower overhead for western style showering
Modern bathtubs can be programmed to be automatically filled with water of a given temperature at a given time, or to heat up the water to a preferred temperature. Some bathrooms even include built-in warmed dryers as well as automatic self-cleaning features.
Japanese bathtubs also contain a call button so that you can have a nice glass of tea brought to while relaxing
When entering Japanese bathrooms , have you ever noticed that there is a spray wand in sink? That is a wonderful idea because you can even wash pets or small kids in sink. 
When bathing Japanese style, you are supposed to first wash yourself thoroughly outside the bathtub. Afterward, you enter the tub, which is used for soaking only. After soaking, leave the tub and clean your body with soap. Make sure that no soap gets into the bathing water. Once you finished cleaning and have rinsed all the soap off your body, enter the bathtub once more for a final soaking.
If you are at a hot spring, shampoo, body wash and towels will be provided
Japanese people traditionally use charcoal soap, massage brushes and clean cloth (long, thick and also held at both ends) for rubbing. While washing, you can sit on a small stool and use a bucket to pour water all over yourself. 
Japan bathing accessories will help you to have a restorative bath
It is a tradition to share bathwater among family members, something that Westerners would certainly never ever imagine doing.
After soaking, you leave the bathwater for the next member of the house. So it is important to keep the water clean, which means no washing hair or lathering up in the tub.
The Japanese are likewise naturally fantastic at water preservation. They do not stand under a consistent stream of hot water for an extensive amount of time, instead of using a pipe with simply the quantity of water they require to cleanse themselves.
What’s more, many bathtubs come with a pump which you can stick to the washing machines so you can reuse the bathwater for washing clothes.

Most bathrooms in Japanese homes are “unit-baths” – meaning that the entire bathroom (walls, floors, ceiling, bath, shower, drainage, and door) are sold as a single product or ‘unit’.
