What are the Benefits of Steam Showers at Home?

Article Category: Home Management

Author Name: James McKnight

Now, you can enjoy a complete spa and aroma therapy experience at home with modern steam showers. These are independent enclosures that can be installed in your bathroom. They have electronic steam generators that boil water and eject it as warm and soothing water vapor. A 160 cubic feet stall requires a 7 kilowatt steam generator. This can provide the entire stall with steam at the right pressure and temperature. The enclosure prevents moisture from escaping, keeping the interior soothing while preventing damage on outside paint and wallpaper.

Steam showers and enclosures also have the basic features of a bathroom like showerheads, taps and whirlpool bath tubs. There are also water jet massagers for the back and feet. Most models are compatible with phone or music player docks for maximum relaxation. You can also have a full-blown aroma therapy since these enclosures support dispersion of scents and oil. For an added atmosphere, you can also purchase digitally controlled lights.

Fever Simulation

Hyperthermia is the body's best mechanism for killing pathogens like bacteria and viruses. That's why steam bathing can cure common colds and cough. The steam taps the immune system and mobilizes it to kill the pathogen and expel it from the body.

Respiratory Stabilization

Doctors recommend steam showers for patients of asthma, sinusitis, bronchitis and other respiratory problems. The pressure and warmth of steam enclosures help the lungs to expand and contract effortlessly. Right after a twenty minute session, patients already feel the effects. Steam can also be a first-aid for allergy attacks, since it widens the airways.

Muscle Relaxation

Do you come home tired of a whole day's work? Your legs may be tight and painful due to moving around. Or your back may feel terrible after getting stiff due to office work. The heat of steam eases the tension in the muscles. It enhances blood flow to take lactic acid from the muscles, and prevent cramps and aching.

Skin Revitalization

Steam bathing is a good way to relieve the skin of a whole day's exposure to dirt and pollution. The tiny blood vessels just beneath the skin are also widened by the steam. As an effect, blood and oxygen flows more freely, detoxifying the skin cells. The skin will look clearer with a pinkish glow. From the outside, the steam widens the pores. This removes the trapped dirt, dust and oil, preventing the growth of acne, white heads and blackheads.

Safety Issues

However, before installing and using a steam bath unit, you must know some important health precautions. First, the safe body temperature limit is 118 degrees Fahrenheit. Hence, your steam bath settings must not exceed this limit. Most modern steam showers automatically regulate temperatures to the healthy levels. Next, you must not stay in the bath for more than 20 minutes, since it may cause dehydration. It is advised to drink plenty of water before and after entering the enclosure. This facility is also not recommended for hypertension and diabetes patients. Finally, pregnant women and young children must not use steam baths.
