Spa: Bath & Shower
Cleaning ourselves has become part of a routine instead of a special time for contemplation. A sweetly scented shower or bath with essential oils and spa salt can be very soothing to the skin, relaxing and improve your health. A home spa can also improve blood circulation, tone up the skin elasticity, lower blood pressure and enhance your mood. If you want to take a bath make sure the water temperature is slightly higher than body temperature. The recommended length time would be 20 minutes. Before, taking a bath or shower it is also recommended that you quickly brush over the skin. This will help to keep the skin fresh, remove dead cells and stimulate blood circulation.
