By inducing perspiration and increasing circulation this traditional Japanese remedy has been used for hundreds of years, helping to dissolve excess stored fat and oils from the body. Especially good for women's reproductive organs and for the skin. Aids in reducing body odors by cleansing the pores through increased perspiration and circulation. Use this bath 1 to 3 times per week for 1 month or nightly for 10 days in a row.
NOTE: Do not use this bath if pregnant, nursing, or menstruating. Not recommended for men.
