Women lamented the consequences of bathing their babies in a pine bath. It talked about the manifestation of severe allergies in the form of rashes, redness, and even the formation of crusts on the skin.
Indeed, such consequences are quite possible, but not often. If your baby has an individual intolerance to the substances that make up the “prickly” bath, then he should not be bathed in such water. To determine whether pine therapy is dangerous for your baby, it is enough to test the bathing composition on a small area of skin.
Wipe your skin with the infusion and wait about an hour. If you notice something suspicious (red blisters, peeling, inflammation, swelling, irritation), then refuse the water procedure with this composition.
In addition to allergic reactions to the skin, there may be other reasons to refuse pine baths, for example:
- The child feels unwell and has elevated temperature bodies;
- Presence of infections in the body;
- Problems with the cardiovascular system;
- The baby's chronic disease has worsened;
- The presence of tumors of various types;
- There are wounds, injuries, and various damages on the child’s skin:
- Sometimes, instead of the expected calming effect, you can observe the opposite result - the baby becomes extremely agitated, capricious, and sleeps poorly.
What do mothers say about bathing in a pine bath?

You can also note improvements in the child’s mood, quick help with respiratory diseases has been noticed, some claim that they didn’t even need medication.
The following disadvantages have been noticed: it is imperative to withstand a certain amount of time when the baby is in the bathroom, even when he does not want it at all; It is not always possible to achieve calm behavior in the baby, to convince him to lie down and not be capricious. Many people complain that the bathtub cannot be cleaned after bathing in pine needles. There are reviews that talk about allergies to this type water procedures.
Recipes for making pine baths
Preparing a decoction or infusion is a little more difficult, but you will know that all the ingredients are natural and fresh. The ready-made concentrate is easier to use; it needs to be diluted according to the instructions, the main thing here is to observe the measure.
Now I’ll tell you in more detail how to prepare a bath for a baby with pine needles. For bathing with ready-made composition Typically, approximately the following dosages are used: divide the briquette in half and take one part; the liquid composition is taken in a volume of about 50 ml; take half as much dry product as liquid; If using tablets, take one.
The instructions may indicate only an adult dose, then for an infant you need to take a quarter of this dose.
Concentrates are diluted in a small volume of water, then added to the bath. For children over one year old, you can add a few drops of essential oil to the water.

It would seem, why do we need pine baths for children? Herbs like string or calendula or special baby foam are enough for the baby. Many parents see pine needles as an allergen and irritant. However, this is not the case.
Why are pine baths needed?
Coniferous baths for children have therapeutic purpose and, as a rule, are prescribed by a doctor, but such bathing can also be used as a preventive measure. It will strengthen the baby’s health and increase his immunity. In addition, do not forget that needles are the most best medicine from lung diseases, so if the baby has asthma, cough or other problems, then such baths will come in handy.
Spruce and pine baths are also wonderfully soothing. Therefore, they are prescribed to hyperactive children, as well as to children susceptible to stress, overly excited, suspicious and anxious children.
But even on this beneficial features The “prickly” bathing doesn’t end there. They are prescribed for rickets, low body weight, and insomnia. Needles have a positive effect on the cardiovascular system, stabilize metabolic processes in the body, cleanse toxins, removing them through sweat.
A special advantage of spruce baths is that they have almost no contraindications, with the exception of infrequent allergic reactions.

At what age can you bathe a child in a pine bath?
Spruce bathing can only be done after the baby is six months old, although doctors most often prescribe such procedures from the age of one.
Under no circumstances should pine baths be given to newborns (up to 1 month), as their skin is too sensitive.
Before starting a course of such bathing, you should consult a doctor and undergo a short allergy test. By the way, it is believed that a pine bath is more dangerous for infants (in terms of allergies) than for “artificial” baths.
What are pine baths made from?
To prepare pine bathing, you can use one of the following ingredients:
- extract (concentrate);
- balm;
- infusion (from fresh or dried needles);
- powder;
- tablet.
Each product has beneficial properties. The easiest way is to add a concentrate or extract to the bath. You will have to tinker with decoctions or infusions, but you will know for sure whether the raw materials from which they are prepared are of high quality.
There are two ways to make a bath from dry or fresh needles.
First way
Take a canvas bag, nylon stocking or gauze pocket. Place a handful of dry pine needles inside and tie the bag to the tap. Turn on the water. As the water flows through the needles, it will be saturated with the beneficial properties of the needles.
Second way
You can prepare an infusion. To do this, place 5 tablespoons of chopped needles and twigs of spruce or pine in a thermos and pour two glasses of boiling water. Let it sit for several hours and then pour it into the bath.
This amount of infusion is suitable for a small children’s bath; for an adult bath (if you are bathing a baby in it), you need to increase the volume by 5-6 times.
Types of coniferous baths
Doctors prescribe three types of pine needle baths for young children:

Pine-salt bath
Pine-salt baths are especially useful, as they combine the strength and benefits of two powerful means- pine needles and salt.

You need to take the ingredients for such bathing in the proportion of 100 grams of salt per 10 liters of water (for starters, you can try taking 50 grams per 10 liters). The extract is added in the same way as in a pure pine bath.

Increasingly, in the list of services of beauty salons you can find body care procedures based on the use of materials and substances of natural origin. Not only the specialists, but also you and I, the clients who turn to these specialists, have been convinced that this vector is correct. For rejuvenation, preservation of beauty and health, the use of plant extracts, essential oils, infusions and extracts is encouraged. One example is the use of machined parts coniferous trees: pine needles, cones, resins.

- Essential oils
- Phytoncides (have an antiseptic and calming effect)
- Phytohormones estrogen (prevent the appearance of sagging and dry skin)
- Antioxidants (prevent premature aging caused by free radicals)
- Carotene (separated from vitamins, since it belongs to the fat-soluble group)
- Trace elements (copper, cobalt, iron, manganese, aluminum)
These substances are involved in the synthesis of collagen and elastin, improve metabolic processes in the skin (B vitamins), protect cells from the effects of free radicals, and enhance skin regeneration (vitamin E).
The presence of so many useful substances, which almost all conifers have, has made it possible to have a beneficial effect on appearance any person, since the indications are common to everyone, and contraindications are quite rare.
