The value of cold shower THE VALUE OF COLD SHOWER
The invigorating, rejuvenating and health-restoring power of hot and cold water is well established—both by tradition and the experiences of thousands of years of actual application, and by the studies of modern science. In Chapter 8 I will tell you of the magic power of the overheating baths for healing purposes. In this chapter so far I have shown you several ways of using cold water for improving or restoring your health. One of the simplest and easiest forms of homemade water cure treatment is an ordinary shower.
Cold shower treatment has a special tonic-like magic of exerting an exceedingly beneficial effect on the entire system. Here's what a simple good old cold shower can do for you:
It will stimulate circulation and increase muscle tone and nerve force.
It will stimulate the glandular system, especially the adrenal glands, to increased hormone production.
It will speed metabolism and improve digestion.
It has a powerful influence on the central nervous system, the brain, and all the vital organs of the body.
It will build up your resistance against colds and infections.
It will help to prevent premature aging and keep you younger longer.
As you see, it is a real life-elixir! And it's free and so easy to take!
In Swedish biological clinics the cold shower is used extensively, especially in treatment of rheumatic diseases.
A cold shower is a real beauty bath, too. The cold water on the upturned face is one of the best beauty treatments known. It tightens the skin, prevents wrinkles and promotes a healthy, radiant complexion. Even if you take a warm bath or shower, always finish with a cold shower, at least on the face.
It has been shown that a cold shower actually increases the blood count. Some doctors also claim that a cold shower is mildly electronic in action and increases the intake of oxygen to a remarkable degree. And, as you know, oxygen is life itself. The more oxygen in your blood and your cells, the better your health.
So, by all means, treat yourself to a cold shower—this simplest and cheapest water cure method—each morning and evening]
Dr. Henry Lindlahr summed the value of a water cure, based on his own experience, in these words: "There is no such thing as a 'cure-all'—any remedy or panacea for all ailments—but if there were such a thing, it would be cold water, properly applied."
