Take a 15-20 min. relaxing bath after a hard day’s work and pamper yourself after a hard day’s work and take a relaxing bath, enhanced with a mix of salt and eucalyptus essential oil. A bath with a mix of Black Sea salt and Eucalyptus essential oil is a great way to regain your strength after physical and mental stress, and also has antibacterial properties. Salt is a natural antiseptic, inhibiting inflammations and eliminating bacteria. Eucalyptus essential oil gives a sense of purity and freshness, as well as acts as a disinfectant. Baths are best before sleep.
Ingredients: Sea salt, Eucalyptus essential oil.
Methods of use: For an aromatic bath dissolve 90 g (2-3 tablespoons) of salt in 100 l warm (36-38oC) water.
Pouring water on stones in electric saunas is inadvisable for safety purposes. Better pour 2-3 spoons of Black Sea salt and essential oil mix in a heat-resistant vitrified ceramic or fireclay bowl and place it near the hot stones: the essential oils should slowly evaporate instead of burning. Salt absorbs moist and scents, later unfolding them in the hot sauna. (Do not pour salt solution on hot stoves, because salt accelerates corrosion).
