APPLE CIDER VINEGAR BATH


This is for large sun-burned areas. An apple cider vinegar bath works wonders. Use a brand from the health food store that has been wood-aged, rather than one from the supermarket that may have been chemically-aged. Apple cider vinegar helps to balance the skin’s pH factor, its acid/alkaline balance. As with all parts of the body, when there is chemical balance, healing is supported.

Add two cups apple cider vinegar to a bathtub of warm water. Let your child soak for 15 minutes. The skin will be calmed and soothed, and much of the pain will be immediately relieved. After the bath, you can use one of the remedies described below to promote further healing.
