7 Reasons Tea Baths Are Essential for Postpartum Soreness, Exhaustion & Recovery
1. Postpartum Recovery Can Take Up to 18 Months. Heritage Baths Have Supported It for Centuries.
How you treat your body during the postpartum period directly affects how long and how well you heal, and warm-water immersion with botanicals is one of the oldest forms of postpartum care in East Asian tradition.
In an independent consumer study, 91% reported their muscles felt less tense after a single Mountain Fog soak.
2. Stress Doesn't Reset Overnight. It Accumulates and Your Baby Can Feel It Too.
Prioritising your own recovery isn't separate from caring for your baby, it's part of it.
93% reported feeling less stressed after one Inoki soak, and 72% still reported significantly reduced stress three days later.
3. Hot Water Helps. An Inoki Tea Bath Soak Does More.
Warm water is standard postpartum advice, but whole botanical remedies take your bath further, releasing their natural oils and aroma as they steep.
93% reported softer skin, and 96% felt more physically relaxed.
4. The Botanicals East Asian Moms Have Used for Centuries.
Mugwort has been used in Chinese, Korean and Japanese postpartum care for generations, steeped into baths for improved circulation and comfort during the months after birth.
Inoki blends are built on that tradition, and 98% reported a meaningful self-care benefit beyond a regular bath.
5. You're Careful About Everything That Touches Your Baby. You Deserve the Same.
You read every label that goes near your baby, at a point when your own skin may be more reactive than usual.
The Postpartum Recovery Set is made in small batches in North America from whole botanicals.
93% reported it was gentle and suitable for sensitive skin, and 83% reported less irritation.
6. You Don't Have the Energy to Figure Out How to Relax. So We Did It For You.
Every Inoki bath comes with guidedbreathwork and music hosted on Spotify, so the precious minutes you have to relax are spent resting rather than deciding how to rest.
89% reported their breathing became more regulated and deeper, and 98% reported it felt like a thoughtful spa treatment, there's a reason we're carried in the world's most prestigious hotel spas.
7. Easy Clean Up Because Postpartum Care Should Be Easy.

Inoki’s signature heritage bath helps soothe p...
I grew up with the rituals of visiting bathhouses - heritage practices where families gathered to find restoration through bathing in healing teas, botanicals, and natural minerals.
These rituals were a sanctuary for the mind and body, a place where time slowed down and the spirit could reset.
There was a mix-up during shipping and I never received my Mont chocolate add on kit. The Inoki team was quick to respond and sent me a replacement kit of my choosing as the kit had sold out. I am very thankful for the quick response and love my replacement Nordic kit!
I got a couple tea sets, and I have to say that the Mont Chocolat has a perfect aroma to calm you after a stressful day! It is very soothing and relaxing!
I am very happy with the set! There was a mix-up when I first ordered but the Inoki team was quick to send me a new add-on kit.
I highly recommend for the relaxing baths it gives me!
The ancient forest tea bath is my favourite one I have tried so far! This add on kit really enhanced the experience and relaxation during my tea bath! I highly recommend!
I LOVE this bath. I steeped it in a separate bowl and then poured the steeped water and the pouch into the bath. It was so relaxing and soothing, my skin felt so soft after as well. It was the most rested I felt in a long while
I really enjoy this tea bath! It is my favourite one so far with rich calming aromas and my skin feels so soft after the bath.
I highly recommend this tea bath!
A ritual back from my childhood. So happy I was able to recreate warmth and care from the days when I was little. It means a lot to me. Thank you you for such high quality product and such an amazing experience right from home.
This was my first time trying a tea bath. It smelled very good and left my skin feeling soft and smelling great. Used for my birthday bath and it was a deeply relaxing experience. Clean up was also very easy.
These are my favorite scrunchies! I love the silky fabric and that they came with little bows! It is such a lovely touch. The pouch is very soft to the touch and structured so it stands up well. The headband has a nice waffle texture and sturdy Velcro.
I’ve been a huge fan of Inoki’s tea baths. This one has a beautiful floral aroma and is very soothing for my sensitive skin. The oats make the water a little more textured and moisturizing. Really loved this limited edition bath!

Love! So luxurious, smells amazing, makes a fabulous luxe gift to yourself or a friend. I scooped out one fifth of the mixture and added it to my sachet bag rather than reusing as directed by storing in the fridge between uses. This worked best for me as a busy mom of four with limited fridge space, and the quality ingredients were still enough to work at a fraction of the recommended amount.
I absolutely love the Nordic tea bath. It smells wonderful and the spearmint is so invigorating! I have a toddler, so my bath time ritual is not very often. I decided to splurge for my birthday this year and got the Inoki sampler pack. I am so glad I did. 😁
I absolutely loved this tea bath ritual. It turned an ordinary bath into such a relaxing experience, and the floral scent was beautiful without being overpowering. It was the perfect way to unwind after a long day, and I’ll definitely be using it again🥹🤍✨
I bought this set to find my favorite scent and now I feel like I need it all. The bath is so soothing and relaxing. It makes my bathroom smell heavenly even after the bath is over. I am a forever customer now!
Love the brand design on my glass jar - it's honestly a bit bigger than I thought and it could definitely hold a "full-soak" of any of the lovely bath mixtures! I can't wait to get my hands on more of them in the future!
Love that the lid is wooden and that it doesn't easily pop off if tilted!

As of this moment, I've used the Nordic Lagoon twice!
It's been incredibly relaxing, soaking in the tub and the spearmint is quite refreshing! My skin feels much smoother and moisturized compared to using bath bombs!
I'm never going back and hope to get my hands on more products! <3
Love all of these teas! The Nordic Lagoon is my personal favourite. Also I know you aren’t marketing it as such, but I have a steam shower that I use your teas with and it’s absolutely amazing! All I do is tie the tea bag over the steamer head and let the tea diffuse into the steam as the sauna shower fills up. Great way to maximize the use of the tea! Will definitely be buy more soon!
Like it but not my favorite. I drink cold mint tea everyday so it was a little stange to bath in a similar tea. Very strong. Next time will try half the amount.
This tea bath is my absolute favorite! My muscles feel wonderful after soaking in it and I fall sleep right away. I have made this one a ritual one once a week now. I suffer from inflammation in my ankles and have noticed a huge benefit in my health since using it. Wish I could buy this one in bulk. Thank you so much for making such a wonderful tea bath!
Inoki did not disappoint! Best bath I ever took. I choose Mt fog for my first bath and my kitties even hung with me lol I had best sleep and woke up feeling amazing. My muscles were so relaxed. I will be a life long Inoki customer!
I am citrusy glowing! Love love love my 1st bathing ritual! Thank you for the high-quality products and regal packaging. From the elegant gift boxes to the red envelope, I am a lifetime customer.
I absolutely adore these products. This purchase was a roofer and also purchased a sampler pack as a gift. Mountain fog is my favorite but all of the blends transport you to a beautiful place.
I love this luxurious set. I love getting to try all the different teas and learning a little bit about each! And it comes with a beautiful card with a painting of each tea is lovely. Just a delightful experience overall.
