Of course, everyone knows that going to the bath is useful. But how much, even hard to imagine, only if it is done correctly. The main thing is not to be afraid to do it for the first time. After all, the procedure itself is very pleasant. And getting health benefits and relaxing yourself is doubly pleasant.
The healing properties of the bath
1. The influence of the bath on the respiratory organs
Humid, hot air becomes an irritant for the larynx and nasal mucosa, so the person begins to inhale air more often, as more air is needed at high temperatures. And as a result, constant air exchange, which almost doubles the ventilation of the lungs, as well as the flow of oxygen.
2. Influence of the bath on metabolic processes
Due to the high temperature in the bath, perspiration increases. As a result, blood circulation is accelerated, and all metabolic processes are improved. Nutrients and oxygen begin to enter the blood faster. And soon, in the final stage of these processes, the last metabolic products come out through the lungs and skin. As a result, the bath has a great effect on metabolic processes.
3. Hardening effect of the bath
Hardening in the bath has been practiced for a very long time. For example, in the Russian bath it was customary to jump into the snow or dive into the hole after the bath, while the ancient Romans preferred to cool off simply by standing in the fresh air. But in order not to get sick, a person must be prepared for such procedures. The body needs to gradually get used to both low and high temperatures. Because an untrained heart can not withstand such temperature changes. Therefore, after the first approach in the bath, you do not need to immediately jump into the pool or into the snow, since the body has not yet warmed up enough. Only after the 2-3rd approach, you can try to cool down. If you are cold after that, go to the steam room for a couple of minutes, and then, when you go out into the dressing room, wrap yourself in a towel or put on a bathrobe.
4. The rejuvenating effect of the bath
Women try to preserve their youth, sometimes agreeing to completely unpleasant procedures, forgetting about the possibilities of rejuvenation, which have been tested for centuries. Aging occurs due to the blockage of the protein molecule, which makes up all the cells of the body, and blocked cells prevent harmful toxins from leaving. Now it’s worth remembering what the principle of the bath is: due to the high temperature, dead cells exfoliate, and a new layer forms in their place. Thus, the bath helps self-renewal. The metabolism is enhanced, which also rejuvenates the body as a result.
5. The soothing effect of the bath
Any water treatments are an excellent way to calm the nervous system, and even more so a bath! The indescribable atmosphere of the bath cannot be compared with anything else. Gentle warmth in the bath and the effect after it plunges you into a state of peace of mind. And after calming the nervous system, it will also remove the feeling of fatigue. Cheerfulness after the bath appears due to the fact that along with sweat, excess lactic acids leave, and they, in turn, aggravate the feeling of fatigue.
