How to Use Essential Oils in Healing Baths

By Jodi Cohen

A tranquil spa setting featuring a lit candle in a blue glass holder, three bottles of 'vibrant blue oils' essential oils—'sympathetic', 'parasympathetic', and 'lavender'—arranged on a bed of coarse salt, with a blurry salt shaker in the background, all on a wooden surface, inviting relaxation and serenity.

Epsom Salt baths can be a wonderful healing tool for restoring physical, mental, and emotional well-being. They support detoxification, reduce inflammation, improve circulation, support depression, relieve muscular tension, strengthen cellular immunity, and calm the nervous system, reducing anxiety and supporting optimal sleep. Essential Oil baths can further enhance your healing and experience.

Healing baths are known to increase skin elasticity and reduce symptoms of skin concerns such as rosacea, psoriasis, and eczema.

Like seawater, Epsom salt baths contain minerals that can pass through our skin and support our healing. Water is an optimal nutrient carrier as it both absorbs and magnifies its healing potential.

One teaspoon of water can actually absorb four teaspoons of nutrients, which is one of the reasons that bone broth is so healing. Similarly, warm baths with Magnesium Sulfate from Epsom salt and sodium bicarbonate from baking soda can create a similar healing experience.

Here’s why: The combination of water, heat, and minerals opens skin pores, allowing them to absorb the minerals and flush out harmful toxins through the sweat glands. Layering in specific essential oils can further enhance the experience.
