What are Salt Baths?

Salt Baths are warm water baths where salt is added. Different types of salts can be added to bath water in addition to herbs, botanicals, or oils. The Salt dissolves in water and the nutrients absorbed into the skin.

Couple Types of Salts-

• Epsom Salt
• Pink Himalayan Salt
• Sea Salt

Why Do People Use Salt Baths?

A. Muscle Soreness

Epsom Salt is most often used with muscle soreness. The Salt helps to stimulate circulation and ease cramps.

B. Joint Stiffness

Salt helps your body relax including the joints themselves.

C. Cleanse the Body

Salts are used to pull out toxins and insert good nutrients. In some places this is considered a body smudge and is used spiritually to cleanse the body and energy. It is proven to de-toxify.

E. Just to Relax

Honestly, just hot water alone will make you relax.
