Dr. Hauschka Aromatherapy Bath Kit

The complete collection of all five of Dr. Hauschka's Aromatherapy Bath products in a convenient, elegant gift tin. Packaged with an insert which explains the aromatherapeutic effect of each vial, this is a wonderful introduction to Dr. Hauschka bath products. Each kit contains one vial each of Lavender, Sage, Spruce, Lemon and Rosemary Bath, sufficient for a single bath or for several treatments with a damp cloth if a bath is not feasible. Containing fractionated base oils (designed to dissolve completely in water, not leave a ring on your tub and a film on your skin) and pure, organic, biodynamically harvested essential oils, these are true aromatherapy treatments, not bubble baths that merely smell nice. Lavender is ideal for calming stressed out nerves for infants, adults and even pets; it's perfect for encouraging more restful sleep at the end of a crazy day. Put a few drops of lavender bath on a warm, wet washcloth when sponge bathing a baby or to calm a puppy down in the evening. Magical. Sage is a natural antiseptic; a perfect bath treatment for irritated skin, the earthy, warm fragrance also opens breathing passages and relaxes tense muscles. My personal favorite choice, I use it whenever I feel wiped out and like I am fighting a cold. A nice, long, hot Sage bath and then a huge bowl of my chicken soup and I am always as good as new. Spruce is a great alternative for people who find Lavender to be too floral and irritates their nose. A clean, woodsy fragrance that opens the breathing passages and encourages increased oxygenation, taking a Spruce bath encourages a slower heart rate and a clearer mind. Spruce bath is particularly popular with men as an alternative to Lavender. Lemon Bath, as customers at Arcadia's store during the hot summer months in NYC can attest, is fantastic on a cold, wet washcloth during a hot day. We hand out ice cold lemon bath infused washcloths all day long when the temperature goes over 90. Refreshing and invigorating, Lemon Bath is like a cold glass of clear, mountain spring water with a twist of organic fresh lemon for the outside of your body. Recommended for the morning shower, just sprinkle some into the tub as you turn on the shower - the water will aerate the lemon oil instantly and you will instantly feel more awake and alive. Rosemary is ideal for wintertime. Rosemary increases circulation and helps relieve congestion; ideal for someone suffering the effects of a cold, flu or winter chill. Particularly good as a warm compress on the chest. Also ideal as a foot bath for warming up cold toes after a day in the snow. Directions: For use in a bath, simply pour the contents of the entire vial into the bath, stir gently, then relax and enjoy. No need to rinse off afterward. For use on a washcloth, sprinkle a teaspoon of oil into a small bowl of water, stir, then soak the washcloth in the water and apply to the skin. Enjoy.
