Showers may be quick and convenient - you can hop in and out when you're in a rush - but there's no better way to relax and unwind than with a long, steamy bath, and there's plenty of evidence to show that taking a bath really is good for you.
Salt baths are particularly beneficial and can even lift your mood and help you sleep, thanks to their hight mineral and magnesium content.
Magnesium has a long list of uses in the body, including the regulation of muscle contractions and blood pressure, energy production, blood sugar balance, weight management and mood disorders, and is absorbed directly from your salt bath through your skin.
College Green bath soaks are a combination of three types of magnesium and mineral-rich salt, each with its own unique properties, together with skin soothing colloidal oatmeal and pure essential oils.:
- Epsom salt - relaxes muscles, aids sleep and sooths dry skin
- Himalayan pink salt - both coarse and fine ultra pure salt containing 84 minerals
- Dead Sea salt - sooths sore, itchy skin and eczema
