It Helps You Lose Weightįor many of us, the New Year means new fitness goals, including weight loss. That being said, be sure you are no longer contagious when using a steam room to lessen the spread of germs. It can also help detoxify your body, which can be extremely beneficial following a cold. While it may not be the most pleasant thing to think about, steam can loosen phlegm and mucus and help you breathe easier following an illness or allergies. Here are just a few benefits of regular usage of the Eucalyptus Steam Room here at Cinzia Spa in Myrtle Beach. Our Eucalyptus Steam Room is the place to be this winter, whether you’re looking to keep your lungs clear or boost your immune system against all those nasty colds and flus going around. Slathering up with soothing body lotions, staying hydrated, and keeping warm when going outdoors will all help to some degree (see what we did there?) but these steps may not be enough to keep the effects of dry air at bay.Īt Cinzia Spa in Myrtle Beach, we have a solution that will not only keep your body warm and moisturized, but it will also provide many other health benefits you may not have known about. While there’s nothing we can do about the weather, there are certainly steps we can take to combat the effects of dry air on our bodies. You can find Everclear at your local retailer or online via Cask Cartel, Caskers or Drizly.With winter here, it’s officially dry air season, which means dry scratchy throats, sinuses, and skin. Simply start with the same base of Everclear and water and change up the essential oils to suit your mood! Have you tried using essential oils in the shower? If so, I’d love to hear your favorite essential oil blend! The great thing about this recipe is that you can customize it to suit your own scent preferences or the changing of the seasons. So why not capitalize on that brief opportunity to destress and make it a true moment of zen? Let’s face it: I don’t have time to book a spa appointment-let alone spend an entire day indulging in my favorite treatments-but I can almost always carve out time for a quick shower. This essential oil scent blend always reminds me of a trip to the spa (minus the hefty price tag of a true spa day!). It’s such a simple way to transform your shower into a fancy steam room. If I’m sick and feeling extra stuffy at night, this aromatherapy shower is my go-to trick to get into the right headspace for a good night’s sleep.Įven if you’re not feeling under the weather, this shower mist is a such a lovely treat to help you relax and melt away the stress of a long day. The steam will help diffuse the essential oils and disperse them into the air, so they can be gently absorbed by the body as you breathe them in.Īt this point point in the process, I like to close my eyes, concentrate on taking deep breaths and let the hot water work its magic on my congested chest and any inflammation I may be experiencing. To use this spray, you’ll need to turn on the shower (I like to set the temperature to as hot as I can stand it!), let the bathroom fill with steam and spritz your homemade mist in the shower a couple times. Once you add the essential oils to this blend, you can’t really smell the alcohol anymore-you’re just left with the relaxing scent of lavender and eucalyptus. I like adding Everclear to the mix because it helps bind the essential oils to the water. Plus, this recipe is so simple to make-just combine lavender and eucalyptus essential oils, water and Everclear® Grain Alcohol (the real star of this DIY recipe!) in a spray bottle and shake to blend.
The scent of the essential oils is so comforting! If you’ve never tried an aromatherapy shower spray before, you’re in for a treat. Lately I’ve been taking my at-home steam session to the next level by adding a few spritzes of this homemade eucalyptus and lavender spray to my shower.
I love to close the bathroom door, turn the water on as hot as I can stand and just enjoy the steam as it fills the room. Whether I have a common cold, a sinus headache or a general case of the sniffles, nothing seems to soothe me like a hot, steamy shower. This time of year, it seems like someone in my family is always dealing with chest or sinus congestion. While I love this time of year-and all of the fun holiday activities that come with it-I do not love the congestion that comes with cold and flu season.
