Throughout history, baths have been a source of healing or rejuvenation. From the bath houses of the ancient Romans to the mineral hot springs where people travel to enjoy the restorative benefits, people love to soak their weary bodies.
Bath salts can be good for other things too, like achy muscles from spending too much time crouched over in the garden or hiking up that steep mountain. Here are some bath salts that can be used for various purposes:
