Why Herbal Baths?
Herbal baths are detoxifying and aromatic and intensely relaxing, both spiritually and physically. The ceremony of bathing in herbs is a daily rite in many cultures, and a return to the course for both the body and the spirit.
The herb or combination of herbs used in the bath depends on the effect that is sought: to soothe the skin, promote sleep, stimulate circulation, relieve muscle aches and pains or merely to enjoy the aromatic experience.
The concept, however remains the same – imagine that you're relaxing in a giant cup of herbal tea.
How to Brew an Herbal or Aromatherapy Bath
There are several ways of brewing an herbal bath. The easiest is to toss several herbal tea bags directly into the bath water. Another option is to use pieces of muslin cloth which are filled with herbs and tied.
These sachets can then be attached to the faucet so that the running water goes through them, or placed in the tub.
