New Family Member!

The Byrne family has welcomed a new family member! His name is Bodacious, and he is a three-month old Peekapoo (Pekingese/Poodle). Since his name is bigger than he is, he shall be nicknamed, "Bo," or derivations thereof.

He is a handful, already, very playful, and of course, not housebroken. It's a good thing babies of every species are incredibly adorable, or things would be much different in this world! Still, he has stolen our hearts, and we are having so much fun watching his antics and cuddling him. Mickey, Tobey, and Hobbes are not quite as thrilled, I must admit. I'm sure they'll all get used to each other, though.

More on bathing

Besides relaxing and cleaning, what can a bath do for you? A bath can also be therapeutic. Hydrotherapy has been used throughout the ages for various afflictions of the human body. Old skin cells and even lesions are soaked off, blood circulation is stimulated, promoting elimination of body toxins, and it aids the digestive system.

How do I take a therapeutic bath?

At it's very simplest, a bather fills the tub with warm water that is comfortable, not too hot, and not cold. However, other products can be added to the water to treat specific circumstances.

Here are some:

* Oatmeal - oats are known for soothing itchy and/or irritated skin and conditioning it, as well as relaxing the person using them.

* Baking soda (Sodium Bicarbonate) - Add a cup or two to the water to soften it, and to make the skin feel silky. It is a deodorizer, also.

* Cornstarch - soothes irritated, dry or itchy skin. Makes the bath feel "silky."
