5 Reasons to Own a Bathtub at Home

November 11, 2016

The pleasures of life come in the simplest form – from reading a good book to taking a long, delightful hot bath in the comfort of your own home. With the constant stress and strain you face in life, being able to find quick relieves in times of tension may just be the solution you need.

With plenty of remodeling options available, you can now transform your bathroom into a therapeutic space where you get to restore and enhance your well-being – beginning with a simple bath tub. Besides bringing pleasures to your senses, baths have several healing abilities that can greatly benefit your mind, body and soul.

Improve blood circulation
Immersing your body to neck level in warm water exerts physical pleasure on the tissues while exercising the blood vessels. This triggers the heart to work faster so more oxygen and nutrient-rich blood can be transported to the organs, keeping your body in a tip-top condition.

Relieve stress
Study shows that dipping in warm water balances the parasympathetic (relaxation) and sympathetic (stress) components of your nervous system. For extra calmness and relaxation, add 10 drops of eucalyptus or lavender essential oils into the bath.

Better sleep
A good sleep provides countless health benefits, including a stronger immune system, better focus and more energy to get through another day at work. A heated bath before sleep helps increase your body temperature. Cooling down after the bath prompts your brain to release melatonin, which helps you to sleep better instantly.

Fight cough and flu
The mucus accumulated in your nose and throat can be drained thanks to the hot steam from a warm bath, which can prevent or cure coughing. Hot steam is also effective in moisturizing the nasal passages and in combating bothersome headaches.

Deeper cleansing
Soaking in warm water opens up the pores in your skin to efficiently remove trapped dirt and toxins – resulting in a cleaner and fresher skin. The addition of Epsom salts into your bath can further enhance the detoxifying effect.
