These are the benefits of the soak's ingredients: Ginger Essential Oil soothes and calms, helping to ease nausea, mild anxiety and more. Tasmanian Sea Salt is naturally occurring and soaking in it can improve blood circulation, calm aches and pains, and soothe skin problems such as redness, rashes, bites and sores. It's also packed with beneficial minerals like zinc, iodine and magnesium, and can deeply exfoliate and cleanse the skin. Seaweed Powder is rich in vitamins, amino acids, and minerals; its fatty acids are able to help calm irritated and dry skin. It's a great cleanser and exfoliator, drawing out impurities.
