Water Bath Therapy for Treating Kidney Failure


The water bath therapy for renal failure, also known as traditional Chinese medicine bath therapy, is a treatment method that utilizes the skin to absorb drugs. This therapy can have the following effects:

Improving Epidermal Itching: Patients with chronic kidney failure may experience symptoms of dry and itchy skin, and water bath therapy can improve the symptoms of epidermal itching and reduce the occurrence of dermatitis through the action of drugs.

Promoting blood circulation: Water bath therapy can promote the patient's blood circulation, improve renal anemia and calcium and phosphorus metabolism disorders, thereby improving the patient's sleep quality to a certain extent.

Eliminating toxins from the body: Patients with chronic kidney failure have a large amount of toxins in their bodies, which can cause damage to the kidneys and other organs. Water bath therapy can eliminate toxins from the body through the skin, reduce the burden on the kidneys, and alleviate the condition.

The commonly used medicinal bath formula consists of duckweed, cinnamon twig, mulberry leaves, mulberry bark, aconite, Chuanxiong, peach kernel, safflower, red peony, motherwort, June snow, soil Poria cocos, sophora flavescens, and white fresh skin. When using, boil the medicine in concentrated decoction and add water to a half bathtub, with a suitable amount of water to cover the body. Soak for 15-30 minutes each time to achieve sweating. The best time is to not feel tired after bathing.

This therapy is usually performed once a day, with one course of treatment lasting two weeks, and can last for 2-3 courses. Please note that water bath therapy cannot replace formal treatment. Patients should receive both formal and traditional Chinese medicine treatment simultaneously.

Overall, water bath therapy has a certain effect on improving the symptoms and quality of life of patients with chronic kidney failure. If you are interested in Chinese medicine for treating kidney failure, please feel free to contact me.
