Herbal Bathing

By Kami McBride

 

Herbal bathing is a great way to relax, heal and support healthy skin

function. The skin is the largest organ in the body. It contributes

to many important functions such as secretion, absorption, excretion,

temperature regulation, immune function, and sensory reception. The

skin has receptor sites that transfer information through the nervous system

to the spinal cord and brain. It not only provides a boundary

between us and the rest of the world, but because of its millions of

receptor sites, is a major player in how we perceive, experience, and

interact with the world.

 

The skin is also a major organ of elimination just like our lungs,kidneys

and colon. It plays a key role in helping our body to eliminate toxins,

heavy metals, and carcinogenic substances. Herbs

have many healing benefits for the skin and there are many simple herbal

bathing treatments that can help our skin do its job of keeping us healthy.
