How old can children take a hot spring bath?

Hot spring bathing has become a form of leisure and entertainment pursued by many families. When bathing in hot springs, families with children will consider the health of their children. Because children's skin is more fragile and they usually go to hot springs with many people, parents worry that the bacteria will have an impact on their children's bodies. So at what age can children take a hot spring bath?

How old can children take a hot spring bath?

Parents often intend to take care of their children's health, but if the method is not correct, it will invisibly bring more unnecessary threats to their children's health. So I hope everyone can pay more attention to the physical health of their children.

Generally, it is more appropriate for babies to take a hot spring bath after they are one year old. Because children's physiques are obviously different from those of adults, they have certain requirements for water quality and temperature. If you take a hot spring bath in a public pool with adults, it will naturally increase the risk of your baby being infected with certain diseases, which is not good for your baby's health.

Some parents will bring their own bathtub, but children’s skin is relatively delicate and their ability to regulate body temperature is poor. When taking a hot spring bath, the relatively high water temperature will cause the body's blood vessels to dilate, allowing more blood to flow throughout the body, while the blood flowing to the brain will decrease, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the brain, which will undoubtedly harm the development of children's brain cells. In addition, children generally do not "stay still" when taking a hot spring bath like adults, but like to play and make noises. Large amounts of activity will cause the blood vessels around the heart to dilate, causing the child's heart rate to speed up and the heart to consume more calories. At the same time, due to insufficient blood supply to the heart itself, the heart's function will also be affected. Therefore, your baby should not move too much when taking a hot spring bath.

Through these introductions, we will find that it is actually not recommended to take very young children to take a hot spring bath, because that will bring some adverse effects to their physical health. Therefore, we hope that parents can pay attention to the health of their children in life.
