In today’s world, we’re constantly exposed to toxins—from the air we breathe to the food we eat and the products we use daily. While our bodies have powerful detoxification systems, sometimes they need extra support. One of the easiest and most relaxing ways to aid detoxification is through detox baths.
Soaking in a warm bath infused with minerals, clays, salts, or herbal ingredients can help draw out impurities, support liver function, stimulate the lymphatic system, and ease stress. But did you know that different bath additions target different toxins? Whether you’re looking to remove heavy metals, support lymphatic drainage, or soothe inflammation, the right bath can make a big difference.
In this guide, we’ll explore the best detox bath ingredients, how they work, and how to choose the right one for your needs. Let’s dive in!
