Yes, this even makes me relax, and after the bath, it also helps and improves the blood circulation in our body.I love a long bath with hot water, my longest duration under shower was 1 hour and I liked it very much, there might other reasons too why people like hot water showers yours and mine are the ones which make me have shower with hot water!

Yeah.. my volleyball coach said to take a hot shower after practice to warm up the muscles. except, when i'm hot, i like cooler showers. I guess cold showers aren't as good as hot ones.

Well I think hot water makes your bowns relax. It helps when you pull a muscle it makes things less tense. Cold water makes you sort of tensen up because it's cold and body is in a rush to warm you up I guess. I take hot showers all the time and it's helpful when I'm sore but sadly I can't take hour long showers lol waste of water, time and money. Especially since we have a family of seven using the water.

I know having a bath for an hour is an simple waste of water and time, but when I am pretty tensed, I don't care about the time and i relax myself to the extent I can and I have already done many things to save water and I think I have easily saved so much water that I wasted on that day an hour long hot water shower!

Why even take a cold shower? I usually just wait until I cool off then get into a shower. I believe everyone is right, the heat the bath and shower gives up loosens your muscle which somehow make you relaxed. Hot showers are always nice. I like to think in them lol, they get my brain working.

Well personally I prefer cold showers. I find those a lot more refreshing than hot ones, especially when starting of the day. The best way to wake up for me is definetly a cold shower, but even in the evenning if I want to refresh what I do is take a hot shower and afterwards I have a cold beer n coke in front of the TV. Relaxes me everytime.

The very thought of having a splash in hot water poured over the head relaxes me and i loose all my tensions.it relaxes my muscles and i dont want to come out of it.its a very cozy atmosphere which i dont want to get rid off.i love have a warm bath for at least 30 minutes and about 1 hour if time persists.

I like to think of showers as death chambers. Like frankenstein is waiting for me in there, ready to punce on me when I want to get clean. Same goes with bath tubs. Thats why I dont bathe anymore

Uh, well, you've got a point... I guess I'll agree, but you also have to agree that this is a really random topic idea. Anyways, I think it's pretty therapeutic for your body (read: sauna) to take a long, hot shower, plus it's relaxing and when you get out you feel squeaky clean.

mmmmm hot baths. feel so so good. especially being in the hot tub! hahaha After like maybe 10 mins or so i feel like sleeping. I think its because your blood is circulating better in the hot water.

I also prefer a hot bath over a shower. Kinda funny, since I used to take showers in the morning all the time. I started taking baths in the evening about a year ago and I realized how much more relaxing it can be. I used to think that I didn't feel awake until after I had the shower, but the down side was that it was one more thing for me to do in the morning before heading off for school/work. Worse still if I was in a hurry (for example...sleeping in on a weekday). At least now when I take a bath, I can relax and get the blood circulating before I go to bed. Of course, if I soak in the bath for too long, I might fall asleep in it.

I agree with you.. I too dont know the exact reason ,behind why a hot bath always feels so good. Especially, taking a warm water shower at night, after a day full of work. I think it might be due to the fact that hot water could increase body temprature a bit, and also make blood flow more easier. This might sound stupid, but the reason i said that was, i think my physics classes at school taught me so. Increase in temperature could increase size of substances. A warm water bath also removes dirt from the body more effectively than a cold water bath. And what would be better than a hot shower on a cold night.
