DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bath liquid used for bathtubs, pools and the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Spa therapy is effective for promoting wound healing and rehabilitation after wound healing. In this spa therapy, the body is invaded and heated in a hot spring or a sand bath, and at the same time, treatment or rehabilitation is performed by causing medicinal components such as various minerals contained therein to act.

[0003]

However, balneotherapy has to be performed at the site and stay there, which is inconvenient. In addition, the therapy is limited to immersing the body in a hot spring, and cannot be used for therapy in which the body is floated.

[0004] The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a bath solution that can be rehabilitated in a form in which the body is lifted.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, the bath liquid of the present invention comprises sodium chloride as a main component, which is dissolved in an aqueous solvent. As the salt used in the present invention, those produced by a method such as rock salt, solar salt, and purified salt are used alone or in combination. The bath solution of the present invention contains these salts as a main component.
Commercially available food salts contain about 1% of calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, etc. with respect to 99% of sodium chloride, and industrial salts derived from rock salt and the like, in addition to these, magnesium chloride, calcium sulfate, potassium chloride , Magnesium sulfate and the like are further contained, but in the present invention, these impurities can be used as they are. Therefore, in use, pretreatment such as pulverization and purification is not required, which is convenient for use.

A salt solution containing such impurities is charged into an aqueous solvent and dissolved to obtain a bath liquid preparation of the present invention. By dissolving the salt, the bath liquid of the present invention has a specific gravity greater than that of water. By immersing the body in this bath liquid, the body is easily floated and exercise during bathing is facilitated. This is effective for rehabilitation or healing of a physically handicapped patient.

The mixing ratio of salt to the aqueous solvent is not particularly limited, and can be appropriately changed depending on the purpose of use. For example, in the case of use while the body is floating as described above, the specific gravity is 1.1 to 2.0, preferably 1.3.
Dissolve the corresponding amount of salt in the aqueous solvent so that it is before and after. On the other hand, in the case of treatment of skin diseases and the like, 3 to
Salt is dissolved so as to have a mixing ratio of 5% by weight. Bath solutions having a concentration in this range have a mild penetrating effect and are weakly alkaline with a pH of about 8. Therefore, the liquid exchange with the inside of the skin is performed slowly without irritation, and the whole epidermis is made weakly alkaline. As a result, metabolism is activated, and the skin disease can be healed in a reasonable state. In addition, the effectiveness against this skin disease also acts on the bactericidal activity of chlorine ions dissociated by dissolving the food.

[0008] The mixing ratio of the above salt is 0.1.
It may be 85 to 0.95%. Bath solutions of this concentration have a similar permeability to body fluids and are similar to physiological saline. By immersing or swimming the bath liquid body, the body is cleaned and sterilized by dissociated chloride ions. In addition, at the time of this bath, the irritation to the eyes, the nose, etc. is extremely small as in the case of physiological saline,
The bath can be used for a long time, and the above-mentioned effects are further enhanced.

The use of the bath liquid of the present invention may be carried out at room temperature or in a state of being heated from about 30 ° C. to about 45 ° C. By heating, there is an advantage that blood circulation can be promoted. or,
In the present invention, in addition to salt, calcium, phosphorus, potassium,
Iodine, bromine and other essential minerals may be appropriately blended, and this blending allows the essential minerals to be absorbed from the skin, which is beneficial for health promotion. As the aqueous solvent,
Any substance that dissolves salt can be used, and can be appropriately selected from fresh water, sterilized water, milk or sake. Further, in the present invention, the bath solution can be used not only indoors but also outdoors. In outdoor bathing, the bath liquid absorbs ultraviolet rays with high efficiency, so that sunburn can be suppressed and the bathing liquid is suitable for summer and tropical areas.

[0010]

EXAMPLE 10 parts by weight of a commercially available industrial salt and a salt for food were each taken and added to 90 parts by weight of fresh water, and stirred until completely dissolved to prepare a bath liquid. The specific gravity of the bath solution using the industrial salt is 1.3, the specific gravity of the salt for food is around 1.2,
The solution became heavier than ordinary water. Then, each bath solution is put into a bath, and heated so as to keep the temperature at around 35 ° C. to 40 ° C. When a person enters the bath in this state, the body becomes lighter than when taking a bath in a normal bath. It was almost in a floating state. In addition, when trying to walk, it was found that it was possible to walk well without exerting force in a floating feeling, which was effective for rehabilitation.

After bathing, the solution adhering to the body was washed away, and as a result, the body warmed and did not feel like hot water cooling for a long time. In addition, the entire skin exhibited good luster. Although the pathological basis of such a condition after bathing is not clear, it is speculated that dissociated sodium ions and chloride ions act on the skin due to their osmotic pressure to promote blood circulation and promote metabolism. Is done. Therefore, by continuing the above-mentioned bathing, a spa treatment or a more effective treatment becomes possible, which is useful for health promotion.

[0012]

The present invention is a bath solution containing sodium chloride as a main component, which is dissolved in an aqueous solvent, and can be used for healing skin diseases and other injuries, and has a large specific gravity and is easy to float the body. It has the advantage that it is effective for rehabilitation of a handicapped person.
