Herbal Bath Salts, Oils & Tea Soaks
Bathing in herb-infused water helps reduce stress, soothes the skin, and provides a relaxing, spa-like experience.
You can choose herbs for their specific therapeutic benefits, including softening skin, soothing muscles, stimulating circulation, or combatting infection.
Choose from a variety of leaves and flowers to customize your experience based on your specific needs and preferences. Some classic herbs to use as a bath tea, salt soak, or for aromatherapy include lavender, rose, chamomile, calendula, peppermint, rosemary, geranium, grapefruit, orange, fir, cleavers and ylang ylang.

Directions
Mix your choice of herbs in a jar. Fill a drawstring cotton muslin bag with the herbal blend and drape over the faucet so hot water runs through the bag and creates a tea in the tub. Once the tub is full, toss the tied bag into the water and swish it around to infuse your bath with even more herbal goodness.
