Goodbye anti-bacterial soap!

Its great news that the FDA could very well be removing all anti-bacterial soaps from the shelves of consumers.

    It’s no surprise, as a practitioner of massage I have never used anti-bacterial soap on my own, nor do I recommend it to anyone else, there are no real healing properties found in these soaps.

     Think of the palms of your hands as mini versions of your entire body, as in understanding reflexology in the feet, the hands also reflect the bodies’ vital organs, tissue and blood stream. The skin of your hands is a living breathing organism.

Eucalyptus is an excellent natural cleanser that is centuries old. It has many health benefits in warding off bacteria and infection.

  If you are looking for an alternative to hand soap try using soaps with eucalyptus oil in them.

  Not only will your skin benefit but your sinuses will too as it is also a form of aromatherapy, and that too is another extension of wellness benefits.
