in #health5 years ago
The arguement of which is more beneficial between hot and cold bath have lingered on for a very long time now, while many have categorized that hot bath is good for women while cold bath is good for men, i believe that there are other health benefits of hot bath which everyone can equally benefit from.

1) Hot Bath Improves Your Mood

Hot water bath gives the body reason to relax because it induces easiness and comfort. There is no beating around this point because it can easily be experimented instead of argued. When next you have a large pile of work to do, when next you feel moodly, when next you feel angry about something,just soak yourself in hot bath tub and watch the water do the magic. This is why many people feel the need to cry in the shower.

2) They help you sleep better

The benefits of a good 8 hours rest at night can't be exaggerated, but yet many do not know how to comfortably relax and have a good night rest. If you are having troubles having a good night rest, then try taking a hot water bath just before you sleep. This works because hot wather bath helps relaxes the muscles, relax your mind, and increase your body temperature forcing your body to produce melatonin which prepares you for a good sleep.

3) Hot Baths Helps Cleanse the Skin

Bathing regularly with hot or warm water helps cleanse the body and give your body a fresher looks. This is because hot water bath opens the skin pores enabling it to wash out the dirts and toxins in the skin. Secondly, warm baths combined with other essential oils like lavendar and olive helps keep the skin hydrated and soft.Again hot water bath is most effective in killing the germs in the more sensitive parts of your body like the face.

4) Its Helps Reduce Muscle pain

Hot water baths also helps to reduce muscle pain, after a long and stress hours of work, that is, for those that work in places like construction companies. Hot water bath also helps to relax over worked muscles, that is for those that go to the gym to work out and also for those who do sports regularly. And then for those who sit down for a long time for example in offices, hot water bath helps to reduce inflamation in the joint.

5) It Regularizes Your Body Temperature

This is about the most common reason why people would even take hot water bath at all. Hot water regulates your body temperature during cold weathers and make you feel warm both internally and externally. For this benefit, you don't just take a hot water shower, instead you have to soak yourself in the warm water for about 20-30 minutes.

So here are the benefits of hot water bath you probably did'nt know about. During the course of my research, it was brought to my notice that hot water bath is not recommended for pregnant women and for those with heart diseases. Again,by hot water, i obviously don't mean boiling hot, just a little above warm.
