Herb & Crystal Full Body Bath
A full body warm bath for you and your baby, with custom blended herbs and crystals. The bath is soothing and restorative, and supports the bodies natural healing process. Relieves tired muscles, sore perineum and can assist in recovery from *c-section. 

Spiritually, the bath washes away the birth energy and begins the process of preparing baby and mother for integration/reintegration into society.  

Herbs and gems are custom blended and are included with the full body bath price along with extra herbs for 2 additional steam baths.

* For c-section recovery, this bath should only be done after initial healing of the scar has taken place, usually between 4-6 weeks after birth or upon the recommendation of your Obstetrician. To enjoy the benefits of an herb & crystal bath sooner, we recommend the herb & crystal foot bath.
