  • Your bath mix (most use equal parts of each), in general, uses a total of 3-4 ounces of herb mixture per tub.

  • The bath water should be hot enough to release the herbal essences but not hot enough to burn your skin.

  • If desired, place a small pillow behind your head. Lie back and relax in the tub for 15 to 20 minutes.
