For many of us, bathing rituals are an essential part of a nightly wind-down routine. Whether your concern is sleep, skin health, inflammation or muscle recovery, a warm, aromatic bath can help support your wellness needs.
One way to boost your bath’s restorative power is to add in some bath salts. Often featuring healing ingredients like magnesium flakes and Epsom salt alongside botanical extracts and essential oils, bath salts are a great way to scent your space, centre and relax your mind, and rejuvenate your body.
Many kinds of bath salts, such as our own in-house blends, feature natural sea salts as well as other therapeutic ingredients. Sea salt is an antiseptic exfoliant, promoting smoother, clearer skin and moisture retention. Paired with our essential oils, a bath with anatomē bath salts is the ultimate relaxation practice before bed.
There are many different varieties of bath salts with different aims to target a myriad of issues, mental, physical or cosmetic. The specific benefits of the bath salt will depend on the ingredients of each individual product. Still, the overarching benefits of bath salts include:
- Providing relief for muscle pain, stiffness and arthritis
- Soothing dry or inflamed skin and eczema
- Aiding in relaxation
- Promoting better sleep
- Helping support better circulation
- Calming anxiety, stress and headaches
To get the most out of your bath salts, we recommend adding a handful to warm water alongside a few drops of your favourite anatomē essential oil and enjoying a long, relaxing soak in the tub.
