If you enjoy a long hot soak in a bubble bath, you will love this blog! As Autumn sets in and the nights are getting longer and colder many of us take pleasure in a relaxing soak. Maybe light a couple of candles, pour a glass of wine, and add some bubbles or salts, sounds like bliss. But did you know that having a bath comes with a lot of benefits to your wellbeing. Here are just a few ways baths boost your wellbeing.
Take a Deep Breath
When you are immersed in your bath, the warm water can have a positive effect on your lung capacity and oxygen intake. A combination of the temperature and the pressure of the water submerging your chest contributes to this. Furthermore, the steam helps to clear your sinuses and chest which is handy during the winter months.
Pain Relief
Being submerged in warm water can reduce pain and inflammation within your joints and muscles. In addition to soothing your muscles and easing discomfort, a long soak can aid recovery.
Get a Good Nights Sleep
It is said that our body temperature drops to its lowest just before we begin to fall asleep. Many sleep experts advise keeping your bedroom at a cool temperature to induce sleep. However, when sleeping as a couple this isn’t always possible. Therefore, a hot bath before bed can offer similar results by raising our body temperature which lowers as we exit the bath.
Burning Off Calories
Did you know that a good sweat induced by a hot bath can burn as many calories as taking a short walk. Which is handy now that the weather is becoming colder and walks less pleasurable.
