Can Bath Salts Improve Your Mental Wellbeing?

At Westlab, we’re firm believers in the benefits of boosting your daily personal care rituals with an extra dose of wellbeing. We love that our products have the ability to instantly boost your mood and help you relax. We thought we’d take a look at some of the many ways our bath salts can help soothe your mind, body, and soul and provide an instant mood booster. Here’s why and how this is possible.

The brilliance behind aromatherapy bath salts 

Aromatherapy simply refers to using essential oils for boosting physiological and mental wellbeing. Fragrance is directly linked to powerful memory and emotion triggers to help improve your mood. So, by combining essential oils with our bath salts, we’ve created therapeutic aromatic blends that are sure to help you relax and unwind.

Essential oils such as lavender and frankincense are effective in helping the mind relax and rest, which promotes a healthy sleeping pattern. Additionally, essential oils such as grapefruit or lemon grass are invigorating scents that help to refresh and revitalise the mind and body. At Westlab we have a range of different aromatherapy bath salts for different purposes.

Whether you need a mood boost or to simply relax, we have the right kind of aromatherapy bath salts for you. Find our aromatherapy range here. 

Relax, unwind, and switch off

One of the most important components to protecting and improving your mental wellbeing is setting some time aside to truly relax and recover. Giving your body the chance to rest is highly beneficial to not just your mental well-being, but your physiological one too. 

Taking some time to recharge is a natural way to relax your body and become more mindful. This significantly helps with feelings of anxiety, and can help you manage how you feel. Running a bath and soaking in warm water for a while is a great way to give your mind and body a chance to reset, feel calm and relaxed when you need it. Paired with our bath salts, this is a surefire way to boost your mental wellbeing.

Magnesium and wellness 

Magnesium is an essential mineral that supports over 800 processes for the healthy function of your body. Many people are often deficient in magnesium, so it’s important to replenish your levels when you can. One great way to do this is through magnesium rich bath salts. Our Epsom and Magnesium Flakes both contain magnesium and aid in relaxing your body. If you’re feeling tired and achy then reach for Epsom Salts, and if you need to de-stress mind and body then try Magnesium Flakes.
