Bath Soak Your Troubles Away
If you have ever had a massage from me I often have recommend for you to take an Epsom salt bath when you get home. Many people don’t know why it is recommended, or what the benefits are. Soaking in hot salty water takes pressure of your joints and soothes aching muscles. (Eucalyptus and ginger are wonderful remedies for arthritis and muscle pain.)
Benefits
For hundreds of years, the benefits of Epsom salt have been well known. Soaking in a tub full of hot water with a few cups of Epsom salt is one of the simplest ways to ease stress, take pressure of your joints, soothe aching muscles and stress-related problems. Some of the health benefits include:
- Calming your nervous system
- Alleviating skin problems
- Easing back pain and aching limbs
- Soothing muscle strain and muscle cramps
- Healing minor cuts
- Easing colds and congestion
- Removing toxins from the body
- Relaxing the body and reduces stress
- Relieves constipation
Soak your troubles away with one of my favorite recipes.
Mix together:
▽ ½ cup epsom salts
▽ ½ cup rock salt
▽ 3 Tbsp bicarbonate of soda
▽ 10 drops eucalyptus oil
▽ 10 drops ginger oil or add about 4 cm of chopped fresh ginger to the bath
Bath Suggestions
- Wait to eat awhile before or after bathing.
- Drink a couple of glasses of water to keep yourself hydrated!
- Use 2 cups of Epsom salt for a standard sized tub. Add more salt if your tub is larger. You can find Epsom salt at your local grocery store.
- Draw the bath water at the hottest temperature you can handle–ideally, you want to promote sweating!
- You can add 1 to 2 cups of baking soda, which will help de-chlorinate the water as well as leaving your skin feeling very soft.
- Get into the water and let it surround you up to your neck.
- Stay in the water for at least 20 minutes. You will get really hot. Take this time to relax.
- As you drain the water, be very careful getting out of the tub. You could feel light headed and possibly dizzy.
- Dry off and continue drinking water. Anytime your body detoxes you need to flush out toxins with water.
