Many people take a steam bath, but taking a bath the wrong way could have bad health effects. I'll show you how to take a perfect steam bath and discuss its health benefits.

Having a steam bath at least once a week will remove all the toxins from your skin and heal any skin-related issues.

To have a successful steam bath, you need 50 ml of organic oil. You may use sesame oil, which has many health benefits. Before you go to the steam bath, apply it all over the body and massage it for 5 minutes.

But, before you proceed with this step, pour the oil into a bowl and place it over hot water to activate it. The oil should be sufficiently warm to penetrate cells.

Once the oil is hot, massage it on the body gently in such a way that it should be absorbed by the skin. Leave the body five minutes to rest before you go for a steam bath after the oil massage.

Do not go to the bathroom without drinking enough water. Why? When you take a steam bath, the body vomits a lot of sweat. So, drinking enough water will not dehydrate your body.

What happens during a steam bath? The warm oil that has penetrated the skin's pores begins cleansing at the cellular level. It starts coming out in the form of sweat.

How much time will you have to spend in a steam room? I will tell you the perfect time to leave the steam bath. Do not leave the room until you see a drop of sweat roll down from your head to your stomach.

What do you do when you come out of the steam room with sweat all over your body? Take a shower with room-temperature water. Why?

The cold water will help your body close the pores. They are located exactly at the bottom of the hair. When you take a regular bath, those pores get closed, and your body is refreshed.

I love writing as I get to create something beautiful and touch others with my words in the process. I love the fact that I can create a whole new world, something no one else has ever seen. Writing helps me to escape reality and create new realities. At times, I also write stuff in those stories that I can never muster the courage to say in real life. It's my safe space. I can write whatever I am feeling and I can let it all out. It's also very therapeutic to me..
