Herbal Hair, Shampoo Bars, Bath & Shower Goodies

Herbal baths can be extremely therapeutic. When you are immersed in water, the pores of the skin are open and receptive to the healing properties of the herbs; it's a highly effective method of treatment.

BATH SALTS: Besides smelling wonderful, help to draw impurities out of skin. They also can help with sore muscles and bruises.

BATH TEAS: Like a tea for your entire body. A blend of herbs and flowers conveniently packaged in extra-large tea bags or in loose form with a reuseable cotton bag - just toss one in the tub and relax!

HERBAL VINEGARS: Make a wonderful bath additive, as they naturally balance skin pH and gently tone excess dryness or oiliness. Their mild, natural antiseptic action helps deeply cleanse the largest organ of your body - the skin - without being harsh or drying. Herbal vinegars heighten healing properties and allows you to tailor your bathing vinegar to your skin type. Herbal vinegars are wonderful sunburn, rash, and insect-bite soothers. Use Herbal Vinegar Hair rinses also for Funky Hair Syndrome.

TIP - BATH AND SHOWER SPRIGS: For a soothing and aromatic bath, tie an herb bouquet to the faucet with ribbon; water will pour over the sprigs as it fills the tub. This bouquet includes lavender to calm you; rosemary, a light astringent that stimulates and rejuvenates; thyme, which rejuvenates the nerves; and sage, which has a potent aroma to enhance memory and clarity. During winter's cold und flu season, hang a sprig of fresh eucalyptus, available at many floral shops, in the shower. Its tingling, sinus-clearing aroma will brace you for another chilly day. The sprig will last for about two weeks.
