What are the precautions for bathing in traditional Chinese medicine?
Chinese medicine bath is a very common health care method for all of us now. We can promote health through this method, which can play a very good role in treating diseases and maintaining health, especially helping us to relieve fatigue, which is conducive to our health. However, there are some precautions when taking a Chinese medicine bath. Let's have a look.

Traditional Chinese medicine bath is still very effective. But we also have some precautions when taking a bath with traditional Chinese medicine, so we need to be careful. First of all, when bathing all over the body, the utensils should be clean and greasy, the inner surface should be smooth and sharp, and the size should be appropriate. Wood has the best texture, followed by pottery and enamel. It is best to use copper utensils for local immersion bath. It is very convenient to decoct the medicine first and then take a bath. Next to aluminum, it is best not to use iron utensils. You can also use casserole and pottery to make a bath and pour it into enamel and wooden pots for later use. When using bath continuously, a container with a lid should be used. Be sure to clean it before and after use, so that we can take a Chinese medicine bath better.

At the same time, Chinese medicine bath must pay attention to the choice of time. It is not advisable to take a full-body medicated bath within half an hour before and after meals. Mainly because our stomachs are empty before meals, and we sweat too much when taking a bath, which is easy to cause collapse. If you take a medicated bath immediately after a meal, it will cause gastrointestinal or visceral blood to decrease, and the blood tends to the body surface, which is not conducive to digestion, and may also cause gastrointestinal discomfort and even nausea and vomiting. Get up slowly from the bathtub after the whole body medicine bath, so as to avoid postural hypotension and cause dizziness and wrestling. Bathing time should not be too long, half an hour is appropriate. It is not advisable to take a whole body hot bath before going to bed, so as to avoid excitement affecting sleep. The room temperature should not be lower than 20℃ when taking medicine bath, and attention should be paid to keeping warm when taking local medicine bath. This is a relatively healthy Chinese medicine bath method.

Finally, it should be noted that not everyone is suitable for traditional Chinese medicine bath as a health care method. First of all, we should be careful of those who have serious insufficiency or low level of cardiopulmonary function. Hot water medicated bath will dilate skin blood vessels, increase cardiovascular burden, and easily lead to the deterioration of the disease. At the same time, patients with myocardial infarction, coronary heart disease, aortic aneurysm, arteriosclerosis and severe hypertension should be careful. However, local medicated bath is feasible, the treatment range is small, and the influence on the whole body is small, so it needs proper selection.

Chinese medicine bath is good for our health, but there are some precautions when taking Chinese medicine bath. Chinese medicine bath is not a health care method that we can do at will. We also need to know the details of Chinese medicine bath in order to better carry out Chinese medicine bath.
