Detox Baths


As part of coping with our Lyme treatment, we have to take baths to help manage all the symptoms of bacteria die-off. 

And since we take so many of these baths, I decided to make it easier by doing some of the prep ahead of time. 

Now, we just have to grab a jar of salts already mixed with essentials oils, a bag of baking soda already measured, and the measuring cup and hydrogen peroxide.  

The "recipe" for the detox bath is as follows:

Fill the tub with the hottest water you can stand.

Add one cup of epsom salts mixed with 10 drops of rosemary essential oil. Note: Mix the oils into the salts ahead of time so that the oil mixes into the water, doesn't just float on top, etc.

Then add one cup of baking soda and one cup of hydrogen peroxide. 

Soak in the tub for twenty minutes or more.
