Here are the benefits of having a hot water bath. When our body is immersed in hot water, the heart works faster and stronger. This works as good exercise for the heart and its blood vessels by creating physical pressure on the body and, therefore, increasing the capacity of the heart. A few dips a week is a good work out for your heart.
A hot water bath before going to bed relaxes the body and prepares it for a good night`s sleep. Relaxing the muscles helps us relax physically and also mentally.
The hot water also opens up pores on the face and body. This helps in getting rid of dirt and toxins, leaving your skin fresh and rejuvenated.
Hot water also helps in relieving pain from head aches. Head aches are caused usually because of the narrowing of blood vessels in the head. The water eases the pressure on these vessels, thus alleviating the pain.
