Managing Chronic Pain with Soaking

It is imperative we have assistive devices for daily hygiene that are safe, effective and easy on the caregiver.

Soaking in warm water, with or without minerals (Epsom salt), is one of the oldest forms of medicine. And it has stood the test of time.

SoSoak does make daily hygiene safe and easy but it’s the soaking component that makes it invaluable. Chronic pain in your lower back, hips and anogenital region can be debilitating. Soaking those regions several times a day, especially in the morning and the evening, in warm water improves circulation and blood flow to those areas. It also increases muscle flexibility in the hips and back while soaking your genitals, perineum and anus. And when those areas relax, your mind and rest of your body will follow.

The mental benefits of soaking include improved mood, reduced stress, and improved sleep all by calming your nervous system. Take this time to meditate, listen to music and just breathe. The comfort of a warm soak is available to you any time of day or night. Take advantage of it. It’s your time.

Happy Soaking!
