Bath Time Benefits and Relaxation Tips
The Benefits:
Take long baths. We live in an age where relaxing in a bath are far and few between. Everything is “go, go, go” and we usually choose the quicker option of a shower to save us time. We owe it to ourselves, and to our body, to take an hour or so out of our busy week, lay in the tub, listen to some tranqiul music, enjoy a glass of wine, surround ourselves with candle light… and let our bodies just relax. Taking a bath doesn’t just wash away the dirt and grime of one’s day, the whole process is therapeutic and calming, and can hold a vast amount of health benefits!
Hydro-therapy has been around forever – there’s something so relaxing about submerging oneself in a body of water. Taking a hot bath can ease the muscles, aid headaches, and diminish cramping. It’s beneficial for everyone ranging from athletes, to people who sit at a desk all day.
The Tub:
One bathtub in particular provides a monumental amount of benefits: Jason International Hydrotherapy’s MicroSilk Technology. MicroSilk is unlike any bathing experience you will encounter – it produces millions of oxygen-rich bubbles that softly penetrate your pores, giving you a deeper clean while moisturizing your skin at the same time. These bubbles improve your skin’s health and vitality, make you look younger by reducing fine lines and wrinkles, and make your skin feel incredibly silky (see below for more MicroSilk details and to find out how you can test this tub.

The Experience:
In order to get as much from your bath time as possible, try out a few, if not all of these suggestions:
Make your bath hot enough to induce a sweat: about 92 degrees Fahrenheit. The process of perspiration removes toxins from your body, and burns calories.

Use scented oils to moisturize and hydrate your skin, and add to relaxation: Lavender, Rose, Coconut, Vanilla, or Chamomile are all aromatherapy scents that can increase the relaxing process.
Read a good book or listen to calming music: Reading a book, or listening to music can take the mind off of every day thoughts that may cause stress.
Light candles: It’s all about the ambiance. Flickering candles are much more relaxing than the bright lights of a bathroom.
Combine the hot bath with stretching and a self massage: stretching helps relieve muscular pains.
The MicroSilk Bath Experience - From JASON
Now I am excited to share news of a revolutionary new product with you. MicroSilk®, created with microbubble technology, is an innovative new form of hydrotherapy from Jason International that yields unique beauty and environmental benefits. I truly believe MicroSilk® brings new meaning to the Luxury LOHAS Bath experience.For those who are dedicated to their health and wellness, MicroSilk® bathing rejuvenates and hydrates the skin, leaving it silky smooth to the touch, with fewer lines and creases. Those who care about a youthful look have longed for just this kind of therapeutic sensation. Beginning on December 15th, 2013 - anyone wishing to experience the benefits of MicroSilk Bath Therapy may do so - at no cost - at ESSpa Kozmetika Organic Skincare, located at 17 Brilliant Avenue in Aspinwall, PA.
Here are just a few of the great benefits that MicroSilk provides:
- Consistent warmth and improved circulation through an enhanced "Sauna Effect"
- Tiny MicroSilk® bubbles remain suspended then collapse in the water, keeping heat in the bath and around the body, rather than floating to the top and accelerating the release of heat back into the atmosphere.
- Contained heat energy provides a bather with consistent warmth across the body and enhances the sauna effect, thus more effectively drawing in moisture, improving circulation, opening pores to release toxins, and increasing cardiovascular activity.
- Natural cleansing, exfoliation, and moisturization through oxygen-rich microbubbles.
- MicroSilk® hydrotherapy oxygenates bath water up to 70% more than regular tap water with microbubbles approximately 50 microns in diameter.
- At such a small size, these microbubbles are able to enter the skin’s pores, removing impurities, carrying oxygen for improved metabolism, lightly caressing skin for exfoliation, and improving hydration for dry skin.
- Deeper relaxation and improved serotonin levels through inhalation of negatively charged ions.
- The dissolving microbubbles in a MicroSilk® bath cause anions to be released at the surface of the water.
- When anions are released at concentrations above 50,000 ions/cc they are shown to have therapeutic effects of improving serotonin levels.
- The anions at the surface of a MicroSilk® bath are released at concentrations in excess of 80,000 ions/cc, resulting in therapeutic effects such as neutralizing free radicals, improved over-all feelings of wellbeing, calm, and deeper sleep.
