We all know that taking a bath regularly not only relieves physical fatigue but also has a calming and soothing effect. Especially when different medicinal herbs are added to the water, it can have various health benefits. Let's now introduce the benefits of using medicinal herbs for bathing in detail.
1. Calming and promoting sleep
If you have poor sleep or often suffer from insomnia, taking a warm bath (around 26 degrees Celsius) before bedtime for about half an hour can promote better sleep.
2. Relieving fatigue
Whether it's for students under academic pressure or busy professionals, taking a bath after a stressful day of work or study can make you feel refreshed, comfortable, and relieve fatigue.
3. Anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects
Huanglian, Huangbai, Yinhua, Lianqiao, Diding, and Pugongying all have antibacterial and antiviral properties, as well as good anti-inflammatory and detoxifying effects on the skin. In addition, the medicinal effects and the warmth of the bath can improve blood circulation, increase local oxygen supply, and improve microcirculation, which is beneficial for inflammation to disappear.
4. Pain relief
The warm stimulation of medicinal baths has a certain numbing effect on the skin's nerve endings, which can reduce pain. At the same time, the medicinal effects can also alleviate pain. Therefore, herbal baths have good analgesic effects.
5. Weight loss and slimming
Having a slim figure is the desire of every woman. However, many women feel frustrated because of a bloated body shape after marriage and childbirth.
The plan for slimming down can be achieved through daily baths. Hot water weight loss is best done within 2 to 3 hours after a meal, as this is when energy consumption is high.
6. Beauty and skincare
Dirt can clog the pores of the skin and cause acne. If the skin lacks moisture, wrinkles may appear. Taking a bath allows the skin to directly absorb water vapor, which helps replenish the skin's moisture.
