Overview of Bath Soaks
Before we get into some of our favorite recipes let’s get you up to speed on what these soaks are and why they’re a great addition to any wellness regimen.
These are a therapeutic blend of ingredients added to bath water to enhance relaxation, alleviate stress, and provide relief from physical ailments. They harness the power of natural substances like salts, essential oils, and herbs to create a holistic and restoring experience.
How do they work so well, though? The warm water opens your pores and boosts circulation. The active ingredients are able to effortlessly penetrate your skin and work their way deep into your body where they’re needed most.
Part of what makes these so appealing is that you can tailor your soak to the problem you’re experiencing - be it stress, soreness, sickness, poor skin, or anything in between. So without any further ado, let’s get into our top healing bath soak recipe options you can try.
Making Your Own Healing Bath Soak Recipe
Remember that proven solutions are just a few clicks away at Flewd Stresscare, which will save you the hassle of having to create your own concoction. You’ll also ensure that you’re getting the relief you need with a scientifically-crafted soak.
But if you’re passionate about taking the DIY route, here are some recipes you can try, starting with something to alleviate the most troublesome aches and pains:
To Heal Aches and Pains
Whether it’s a result of strenuous activity, poor posture, or chronic conditions, aches and pains can leave you feeling miserable and get in the way of daily life. Here are the ingredients you’ll need to put this problem behind you:
- 1 cup sea salt: Rich in minerals to relax muscles and improve circulation.
- 1 cup baking soda: Softens the skin and reduces irritation.
- 2 cups magnesium flakes: Highly effective for reducing muscle cramps and promoting relaxation.
- 10 drops eucalyptus essential oil: Provides anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties.
- 10 drops peppermint essential oil: Offers a cooling sensation and helps relieve muscle pain.
Simply fill your bathtub with warm water. The hotter the better, but make sure the temperature is comfortable enough to relax in. Scalding hot water will do more harm than good, you’re not trying to boil yourself alive.
Then add the sea salt, baking soda, and magnesium flakes to the water, stirring to dissolve. Add the eucalyptus and peppermint essential oils. Soak in the bath for 20-30 minutes, allowing the ingredients to soothe your muscles and reduce tension.
To Heal Emotional Turmoil
The stress of work and relationships, or the crippling anxiety about nothing in particular, can take a toll that prevents you from being present in the moment. This can compound and lead to physical ailments if you don’t get stress in check. So, put stress on notice with this recipe:
- 1 cup Himalayan pink salt: Contains over 80 minerals and elements that help to soothe and detoxify the body.
- 1 cup dried chamomile flowers: Promote relaxation and help reduce anxiety.
- 10 drops lavender essential oil: Enhances mood and promotes a sense of calm.
- 10 drops rose essential oil: Known for its calming properties that enhance emotional well-being.
Similar to the physical healing bath soak recipe, you’ll start by filling your tub with warm water before adding the dry ingredients one at a time.
Start with the Himalayan pink salt, stirring it until it dissolves. Then add the dried chamomile flowers and let them infuse in the water. Add the lavender and rose essential oils last, and do one final mixing.
Soak in the tub for 20-30 minutes, focusing on deep breathing and relaxation techniques to help find your inner zen. Before you know it you’ll feel ready for anything life throws your way!
To Heal Sickness
There’s nothing quite like soaking in a hot tub when you’re feeling under the weather. The steam from filling up the tub can also help open up your sinuses, while the hot water can alleviate aches that sometimes accompany illness. Try this remedy to get back to your old self ASAP:
- 1 cup sea salt: Helps detoxify and soothe the body.
- 1 cup baking soda: Reduces skin irritation and softens the skin.
- 10 drops eucalyptus essential oil: Provides antimicrobial and decongestant properties.
- 10 drops tea tree essential oil: Known for its antimicrobial benefits.
Fill your bathtub with warm water and add the sea salt and baking soda, stirring them in thoroughly until they’re fully dissolved. Then, add the eucalyptus and tea tree essential oils. Hop in and focus on inhaling the aromatic properties of the essential oils deeply. Soak for at least 20 minutes.
To Heal Toxicity
Maybe you’ve had a massage recently and you want to now detoxify the free radicals that were pushed out of your muscle tissue. Or, maybe you had a bit of a bender and want to get your body back to its status quo. Either way, this is a great recipe for addressing toxicity:
- 1 cup bentonite clay: Binds to toxins and helps remove them from the body.
- 1 cup sea salt: Provides essential minerals and promotes relaxation.
- 1 cup apple cider vinegar: Helps balance the body's pH and detoxify.
- 10 drops lemon essential oil: Acts as a natural detoxifier and boosts the immune system.
Fill your bathtub with warm water. We recommend dissolving the bentonite clay in a small amount of water before adding it to the bath to avoid clumping.
Then, add the sea salt and apple cider vinegar to the water, stirring to dissolve. After that, you can add the lemon essential oil, mix it in, and soak in the bath for 20-30 minutes.
The key to this healing bath soak recipe is to follow up by drinking plenty of water, as you need to remove all the toxicity that you’re helping to draw out from your muscles and organs.
To Heal Skin Issues
Last but not least, we want to share a recipe to heal skin issues be it acne, eczema, psoriasis, or dry skin. You can get more specific with your ingredients based on the ailment at hand but here is a skin-loving recipe that works for a variety of concerns:
- 1 cup colloidal oatmeal: Moisturizes and soothes irritated skin.
- 1 cup baking soda: Helps balance the skin's pH and reduce irritation.
- 10 drops calendula oil: Promotes skin healing and reduces inflammation.
- 10 drops tea tree essential oil: Provides antimicrobial benefits and soothes skin conditions.
Draw a warm bath and add the colloidal oatmeal first, stirring it well to ensure even distribution throughout the tub. Add the baking soda to the water, stirring to dissolve, before adding the essential oils.
Soak in the bath for 20-30 minutes, and then take a cool shower with a gentle cleanser. Avoid scrubbing as this can cause irritation and make matters worse. Finish up with the rest of your skincare routine, most importantly, moisturizing.
