The Bath Project Book - The Art & Science of Bathing

by Dr Barbara Kubicka

Dr Barbara Kubicka has combined her medical background and her passion for bathology to create the ultimate, comprehensive guide to bathing. This book, available as an e-book and hardback, is as beautiful as it is useful, with inspiring illustrations and photography that invite readers into the fragrant and luxurious world of bathing. Over 20 pages of recipes show how to create the perfect bath at home according to specific needs, such as weight loss, menstrual pain, insomnia, stress relief, and more.

Bathology looks at the benefits a bath can deliver to the body, mind, and skin. It provides detailed instructions on how to carefully prepare a bath for optimum benefits, considering every aspect in precise detail. Chemistry (salts, clays, oils), biology (aromatherapy, Bach flower remedies, herbal medicine, organic acids) and physics (temperature, time of day, colours) are all explored in depth. Readers will discover the extraordinary health benefits of key ingredients as well as the transformational effects of oils and aromatherapy to stimulate the mind, body, and spirit.
