30-Day Confinement Bath Pack

The 30-day pack includes 30 individually packed herbal blends, one for each day of your confinement. Each pack is pre-measured and ready to be boiled for daily use as a warm body rinse or foot soak.

Using the herbal bath is simple and can easily be added into your daily routine:

1. Boil one (1) herbal bath pack in approximately 18 litres of water
2. Let it simmer for 15–20 minutes, then allow it to cool to a safe, comfortable temperature
3. Use the infused water as a body rinse, sponge bath, foot soak or facial steam

Some mothers also like to add a few slices of fresh ginger to the bath for added warmth—this is a common traditional practice in many cultures during postpartum recovery.

Tip: Always test the temperature before use and avoid cold exposure immediately after the bath.

Our Confinement Herbal Bath is ideal for mothers in the postpartum period who are looking for a gentle, traditional way to care for their body after birth. It’s especially suitable for:

• Mums seeking a convenient herbal bath solution during confinement
• Those looking to warm the body and dispel postpartum “wind” and dampness
• Supporting healthy circulation and promoting relaxation
• Easing body aches, fatigue, or general discomfort following childbirth

Whether you’re doing a full traditional confinement or simply want to incorporate some TCM-inspired self-care, this bath is a soothing way to unwind and nourish your recovery.

The belief that new mums shouldn’t shower during the first 30 days of confinement comes from traditional practices in ancient China, where the climate was cold and homes had no heating or hot water. Back then, avoiding bathing helped prevent illness from exposure to cold wind and water.

Today, with modern amenities, regular hygiene is not only safe but encouraged. In fact, many Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practitioners now recommend using warm herbal baths or sponge baths during confinement to support circulation, reduce dampness and promote recovery, as long as care is taken to stay warm and avoid chills afterwards.

Our herbal bath is designed exactly for that purpose: to provide a gentle, warming cleanse that aligns with both tradition and modern wellbeing.

To fully support your recovery during this important time, we recommend combining a few key elements of traditional care. Pairing your herbal bath with Confinement Soups and Confinement Teas helps nourish your body both inside and out — promoting warmth, circulation and balance.

For the most convenient and complete care, consider our daily Fresh Confinement Meals, which include warming soups, main dishes, grains and drinks tailored to your recovery stage.

This way, you can focus on rest and bonding with your baby, while we support your nourishment and care.
