Shower! It can be invigorating or totally relaxing depending on what you use in it!

I am always amazed when this subject comes up that the shower preferring folks seem to frequently feel they need to say something degrading about preferring baths. Hate to tell you all but just because you chose to shower does not make you , in any way, a better person than those who chose to bathe.before you criticize me for saying this refer to posts # 5-6-7.

Not that I really prefer a bath but I have extremely dry skin so I need to soak in bath oils and I do bathe when I am at home.

I am so surprised that showers are preferred by most of you. I guess as far as the water being dirty....I am never dirty so the water is clean. Usually the water stays nice and hot for a long time...I can add more in if I need to. The Epsom salts detoxify the body and relax the muscles....which a shower can not do.

When I was working, I only took two baths a week....on my days off. I showered on my work days as it was faster. That I do see and understand for those that prefer a shower....But, in a shower you can not read a good book...or take a little nap.... A shower is invigorating....a bath is relaxing.

I do both. Shower daily and bath once a week or so to relax.

Love, love, love a nice quiet soaking bath. DH installed bathroom lighting on a dimmer switch so I can keep the lights on low and r-e-l-a-x. He has his own shower so we are both happy.

I used to enjoy both, but now prefer the massage and refreshment that only a shower provides.

Especially if you have any trigger or tension points on your body.

I've had fibro for about 13 years, and showering both in the AM and PM really does help.

Especially if you enjoy both the overhead 'rainshower' and a handheld wand. 8)

i shower now, but in the past would take a bath more frequently. since moving into this house, the bathtub is so large i find it uncomfortable to take a real bath.
