THE STORY

René Sackel, founder and managing director of shower+, has suffered from the autoimmune disease neurodermatitis since childhood. The disease manifests itself through inflammation of the skin and severe itching.

Because of this, after several hospital stays, René spent four weeks in a rehabilitation clinic on the island of Borkum in 2016. In addition to the salty stimulating climate, which has a positive effect on the skin and lungs, it was also the spa methods that helped him to alleviate the skin disease neurodermatitis. These included salt baths, which support the regeneration of the skin. René wanted to benefit from these salt baths at home in the future. However, his apartment only had a shower...

THE IDEA

Inspired by René's story, the shower+ team has developed a system of products. It consists of the Base+, which is integrated into the shower, and the matching shower product in the form of a Stick+. We have produced several generations of the prototype by hand in order to adapt the final product to your needs.

shower+ uses the natural effect and power of salt to care for your skin and brings the sea into your shower – thus offering you an alternative to a salt bath.

THE MISSION

With our products, we enable people with sensitive skin to use salt effectively and easily in the shower. Your health and the health of your largest organ - your skin - are our top priority.

But it's not just people with skin conditions such as neurodermatitis, psoriasis or acne who can benefit from our natural and sustainable products. The variations in the natural ingredients in our Sticks+ bring additional benefits.

"The skin felt noticeably softer and cared for while showering and the effect always lasted for several hours afterwards. I was also able to notice a long-lasting positive effect on the skin areas affected by neurodermatitis. My symptoms, which manifested themselves in redness and dryness of the skin, were significantly alleviated by the applications and contributed to an increased physical well-being."

Recommended for anyone with skin problems!

"The salt shower is very pleasant on the skin and leaves you feeling relaxed even after showering. [...] The redness and itching have gone down. Overall, I was very happy with the product. I was impressed not only by its calming effect on the skin, but also by how easy it is to use, which is why I would recommend it to anyone who is struggling with skin problems and wants a straightforward skin care routine."

Statement from an IXP employee who also tested the application with his wife

Irritated scalp noticeably soothed!

"After the first few applications, we noticed a positive effect on skin and hair. The skin feels relaxed, clearer and softer and the hair looks healthier and fuller. I have a rather dry, irritated and slightly flaky scalp, which has calmed down considerably after several uses of the salt shower."
