What does it mean to detox? It means to cleanse, to clarify, and to refresh. A detox bath soak and foot soak achieve these feelings in two different but equally important ways.
Taking A Detox Bath
A full-body detoxifying bath is the perfect refreshment. It’s the kind of bath you may take at the end of a long day or for a midday pick-me-up to get you through the rest of what you’ve got going on.
This full body soak focuses on releasing the stress and tension from the body, clearing the mind, and providing a complete reset that leaves you feeling as if you could take over the world.
Our Detox Bath Soak at Better Bath Better Body is an easy way to have a full detox experience. Its truly relaxing effect is all thanks to pure, high-quality epsom salt that meets the standards of the United States Pharmacopeia.
Nourishing the skin and leaving it soft and moisturized are fractionated MCT coconut oil and vitamin E oil.
Aromatherapy Bath With Essential Oils
Where the detox really comes in is through the essential oils used in the soak. These are all-natural, providing the authentic aromas of the plants they’re derived from.
The Detox Bath Soak is infused with zesty and bright lemon to provide clarifying and cleansing as well as ginger, which is renowned for its ability to comfort with a clean, warm, and spicy scent. Combined, you get an aromatherapeutic experience that is warm, zesty, clean, and bright.
How To Take A Full-Body Detox Soak
Taking a full-body detox soak is simple. Fill your bathtub with warm water –– as much as you like. Once your water is drawn, add about ½ to 1 cup of the soak.
For those new to taking detox baths, we recommend starting small with ½ cup of salt until you learn about your personal soaking preferences. After agitating the water to make sure all the salt has dissolved, dip your body into the warm water, lying back to enjoy the aromas coming up on the steam.
Your detox should last for around 20 minutes, after which you will pat dry with a soft, clean towel. Patting dry ensures you don’t lose the nourishing benefits of the coconut and vitamin E oils in your soak.
After your soak, you’ll feel cleansed, refreshed, and ready to enjoy a clean slate in your mind, body, and soul.
Detox With A Foot Soak
While a full body detox is a great way to leave you reset and refreshed, sometimes a full body soak doesn’t quite feel accessible with a full and busy schedule. But this doesn’t mean you have to give up the benefits of a good detox.
A detox foot soak is a great way to release tension and enjoy the reset without having to make a full body bath commitment. You can enjoy a detoxifying foot soak in about 15 to 20 minutes, and you can simply complete other tasks as you soak if you wish.
Try our Detox Foot Soak at Better Bath Better Body, which is similar to the Detox Bath Soak but with a few key differences. The base of this soak is also high-quality epsom salt that is rich in magnesium and perfect for melting away tension.
The essential oils used, however, are a bit different. Where the full body soak focuses on warming and comforting, the foot soak focuses instead on a grounding, cooling effect.
It opens up with the essential oil of lemon, giving that same bright, zesty, cleansing aroma but follows with a combination of cooling peppermint, relaxing lavender, and grounding earthy frankincense. The result is a refreshing and cool experience that brings new life and energy to the feet.
Easy And Accessible Foot Soak
Taking a foot soak is simple, convenient, and quick. You may do it using a standard bathtub or invest in a foot-soaking basin that allows you to soak your feet from just about anywhere.
With a foot-soaking tub, you could even practice the self-care ritual on your patio, enjoying the birds singing in the background as you read a book, solve a puzzle, or even get a little work done.
Set Up Your Foot Soak
To take your foot soak, first, fill your bathtub or soaking basin with a few inches of warm water. You want enough to cover the feet up to the ankle, and the temperature should be warm but not too hot.
Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of soak per gallon of water used, starting on the smaller end of the scale if you’re new to foot soaking. After your soak has dissolved, simply sit and soak your feet for around 15 to 20 minutes. Once finished, pat the skin dry and enjoy the renewed and refreshed feeling.
Elevate The Foot Soak To A Spa Treatment
Foot soaks are more than just for soaking –– you might find yourself transforming the experience into a mini spa treatment. Take a small handful of the soak and gently massage the salt into your feet using circular motions for an invigorating and effective exfoliation treatment.
Afterward, rinse your feet, pat them dry, and apply moisturizer for a salon-like experience in the comfort of your own home.
A detox bath or foot soak is a great way to release stress from your mind and body, leaving you feeling and functioning at your best even when your schedule gets hectic. Treat yourself to one today and order bath and foot soaks online.
