Nothing cleans like water Shower toilets for gentle personal hygiene

Water plays a key role in many daily situations when it comes to getting rid of dirt and making things clean. It makes objects shine again and helps us feel fresh and clean.

Ever thought about it? Wash your intimate area with water

We take washing our hands after going to the toilet for granted. But what about further down?

Although we clean ourselves with dry paper, the same applies to the personal hygiene of both men and women: washing your bottom and intimate area with just water is the most natural way to clean them.

Geberit shower toilets clean yourself at the touch of a button with a warm shower spray – to make sure your bottom is just as clean as your hands after washing them in the washbasin.

Benefits of water for intimate hygiene

Cleaning with water is more thorough than using toilet paper

Toilet paper is ubiquitous in many bathrooms, and we are rarely in doubt about how useful or hygienic it is. Quite the opposite: many people think toilet paper is enough to clean their intimate area and help them feel clean and fresh after going to the toilet.

However, dermatologists question whether wiping with toilet paper does actually give us a clean bottom. Although most of the dirt is wiped away, toilet paper doesn’t remove everything. If any residue remains for a long time, it can damage your skin.

Cleaning with water is more hygienic and gentle than wet wipes

Wet wipes that are soaked in liquid and smell like soap make you feel that your intimate area is clean and fresh after wiping. Compared to toilet paper, wet wipes are more gentle and thorough at removing dirt and cause less skin irritation from rubbing.

However, using wet wipes isn’t harmless because they can still trigger skin irritation and even allergies due to their alcohol content, preservatives and fragrances. The ingredients also upset the natural pH value of our skin, which damages our natural protection and promotes the growth of bacteria and fungi.

Cleaning with water helps prevent infections

Gently washing your intimate area with water is not only effective and hygienic but also incredibly skin-friendly. While toilet paper and wet wipes can cause skin irritation, cleaning with pure water is wonderfully soothing. Even many cleaning products such as washing lotions, soaps and shower gels strain sensitive skin because their fragrances and preservatives upset its natural pH value.

Cleaning with water can effectively remove germs and bacteria. It helps prevent infections and leaves you feeling wonderfully fresh after every trip to the toilet.

What doctors say about personal cleansing with water

Here’s how the toilet that cleans with water works 

A Geberit AquaClean shower toilet is the ideal solution for personal hygiene, gently washing your bottom and intimate area with clean water.

As its name suggests, a shower toilet combines a conventional toilet with the cleaning function of a bidet. It cleans with warm water at the touch of a button, ensuring complete cleanliness and freshness.

But a bidet toilet is more than just a modern toilet: depending on the model, an AquaClean shower toilet has special smart functions such as a warm air dryer, odour extraction unit and lady shower – for even more comfort after using the toilet.
