What is herbal steam therapy?

Herbal steams are teas that you breathe instead of drink. They are wonderful allies to support your body in times of illness, and can ease respiratory symptoms like congestion and sinus pressure. Their anti-microbial qualities also counter pathogens. This blend includes known respiratory-support herbs like eucalyptus, thyme, and peppermint, along with lavender, chamomile, and Himalayan salt.

How do I use it?

Simply steep a tablespoon of this therapeutic blend in a bowl of steaming water, then lean over and inhale deeply. The plants release their volatile oils, and as you breathe these in it can soothe inflammation, loosen mucus, and warm dry nasal passages. Placing a lightweight, cotton towel over your head locks in the steam. Take as long or as short as you like. Even a few minutes of breathing in this steam is good, but upping your time to at least ten minutes is highly beneficial.

What’s in the blend?

Eucalyptus is a well-known decongestant and features strongly in this blend. Joining in support are rosemary, thyme, and peppermint. Rosemary has a warming and drying energy, and breathing in this fragrant steam helps to ease the symptoms of illnesses that carry the personality of cold and dampness. Thyme is in this blend especially for its antimicrobial qualities, though it is also well-known as an expectorant. Peppermint is nature’s original menthol decongestant, and is here for that purpose. The aroma of peppermint also helps with headaches.

Lavender and chamomile, while known for their calming, anti-inflammatory properties, are here for another purpose. The lovely aroma of these mood-boosting botanicals brings a feeling of summer to a wintertime body. 
And Himalayan salt? There is a reason doctors of old prescribed a visit to the seaside to their tuberculosis patients. Used today in salt inhalation therapy, salt is considered a valid therapy for congested breathing. Inhaling the salt particles seems to thin and break up mucus and ease inflammation.

This herbal steam therapy is a wonderful mini-spa treatment that always leaves my spirits rejuvenated and my body feeling supported. You can enjoy it anytime – at the first sign of the sniffles, in the midst of a respiratory illness that’s got you down and out, or anytime you wish to nourish and support your respiratory system. Let this salty, herbal steam warm you, soothe your sinuses, and lift your mind to a botanical seaside. Enjoy!
