What is the Carpathian vat?

Some hotels in Transcarpathia have strange accessories - the Carpathian vat. This is a giant bowl filled with spring cold water, which stands on the stove and gradually heats up. The stove is burning firewood. The water temperature in the bowl is from 38 to 42 degrees. During heating, the healing power of water is revealed as much as possible. Do not be afraid to get burned: stones are placed on the bottom of the vat to protect against burns. Carpathian grasses and pine needles are added to the water if desired. Bathing in a bowl has a fantastic effect of healing and rejuvenation of the body. Let’s talk about it more.

But the procedure is suitable for everyone except those who have contraindications.

Rules of immersion in a vat:

Before immersing yourself in the Carpathian vat, it is important to follow certain rules for your own comfort.

1. It is recommended to remove metal jewelry, because they heat up quickly and can cause you discomfort.

2. Immerse the body completely - so that the water covers the shoulders and the surface was only the head.

3. First, warm up the body for 10-15 minutes, and then to equalize blood circulation in the body, immerse the head under water.

4. When the body is warm enough, you should immerse your head in cold water - it is good for hair.

5. After the first immersion in cold water, you can continue to bathe in the tub for 2-3 minutes, preferably no longer.

6. It is recommended to finish the contrast cycle (cold-steam) in a cool barrel-font to close the pores and preserve the minerals acquired in the water.

7. Do not overeat and drink alcohol immediately before immersion.

8. Contrasting temperatures are, of course, very useful. They rejuvenate the skin and strengthen the immune system, but bathing in a tub should be approached wisely, without bigotry.
