Chinese herbal hot bath can accelerate the micro-blood circulation, remove
the waste and improve the metabolism of the body, improve the insufficiency of
blood and oxygen, enhance the immunity, thus treating kidney disease from root.
However, when doing Chinese herbal hot bath, people should pay attention to the
following points:
1. Generally, kidney disease patients should keep the temperature of hot bath
at 39℃～45℃. Firstly, let the lower limbs into the bah and then the whole body so
that kidney disease patients can adapt themselves to the herbal hot bath
gradually. If the bath is partial, keep the outer part warm for there is really
gap between the two parts, which may lead to flu or cold.
2. The time of Chinese herbal hot bath should not last for too long, which
will make kidney disease people sweat more and lose excessive water, thus
causing giddiness or syncope.
3. Pregnant women and those who are in special period should not have whole
body Chinese herbal hot bath. In this case, people should drink some sugar water
or wash feet with cold water, which can shrink the blood vessels in feet and let
the head have more blood supply.
4. Kidney disease patients who have serious heart disease, insufficiency of
lung function or blood tendency should be more cautious when doing Chinese
herbal hot bath should avoid the hot bath as hot as 39℃, which means that the
temperature should be close to the body temperature.
5. At least half an hour after or before the meal, kidney disease people can
consider the herbal hot bathe. In addition, those who are hungry should not take
herbal hot bath at once, which can lead to giddiness or syncope as well. Last
but not least, those who feel discomfort after taking it should stop so as to
avoid more serious condition.
