Description
Bathing in fragrant herbs and oils dates back to ancient Egypt and Babylonian times. Herbs have been used throughout the ages for medicinal and hygienic purposes. The Greek physician Hippocrates (circa 460-377 B.C.E.) known as the father of medicine, learned the healing properties of herbal baths through the ancient Egyptians. This is how hydrotherapy was born, which means “water cure”. Using fragrant herbs and flowers in baths has been deemed more potent than using essential oils.
Mint To Be bath tea is ideal for those who suffer from sinus issues, migraines and/or sore muscles and joints. Its key ingredients are Spearmint Leaf, Peppermint Leaf, Eucalyptus Leaf, Juniper Berries and a minty blend of eucalyptus, spearmint and peppermint essential oils. Peppermint is great in bath soaks to help relax and soothe muscles. Spearmint is used widely to relieve congestion and headaches. Like peppermint, It is also has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anti fungal properties. Eucalyptus is thought to help ease joint pain and is also used widely to help relieve congestion.
Directions:
Method 1) Add entire tea bag to boiling water and steep for at least 20-30 minutes. Pour into bath water (tea bag and all) and soak for 45 minutes. Soaking is key as your skin will absorb the tea’s nutrients slowly. The longer you soak, the more you absorb.
Method 2) Hold tea bag under running bath water while tub is filling. Toss tea bag into water and soak as mentioned above.
Bath teas from SRBC can also be used as a facial steamer.
Do not drink or ingest tea! For bathing only.
