Benefits of the Flower Bath
Flower baths, particularly common in Bali and known as Bali flower baths, have a long history of healing techniques. Here are some of the benefits of flower baths:
- Relaxation and Stress Relief: The flowers and herbs used in the baths have natural revitalizing and cleansing properties. They promote feelings of peace and well-being, leaving you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.
- Skin Care: Depending on the ingredients, flower baths can have various beneficial effects. For example, a citrus bath will rejuvenate and refresh the body, a rose and coconut milk bath hydrates the skin, lavender flowers calm the body and mind and relieve stress, and a hibiscus bath is rich in antioxidants and has fantastic anti-aging properties.
- Detoxification: Wellness baths are not only beautiful but can also provide many health benefits, for more balanced hormones, and relaxation.
- Spiritual Healing: In Bali, The Balinese people take their culture and heritage seriously and all customs and ceremonies are performed with purpose. This is also true for the flower bath. Bali flower bath is actually called the ‘ceremony of flowers’.
- Mental Health Benefits: Treating yourself to a beautiful flower bath is a fantastic way of expressing self-love and practicing mindfulness.
Before I continue, the prices may change due to seasonality or just price changes. THey are a good indication for what to expect.
