On the second day, add your back to these areas by leaning forward and splashing water from a bucket over your shoulder. Then pour water twice over your neck so that it runs down your back. Do not pour a lot of water, pour out the ladles in parts, fixing your feelings.

On the third day, add a head wash. After treating your back, tilt your head and pour water over the back of your head. Dry your body and dry your hair.

For the first week, pour it over in parts, trying to follow this sequence: arms, neck, legs, back, head. The next stage is general douche. Do it as follows: prepare three buckets and pour water alternately over your head, chest and back. From this week the temperature of the water can be reduced - gradually, every day, lower it by one degree. 20-15 degrees is the optimum water temperature for hardening. If you like the procedure and you do not experience any unpleasant sensations, and also if your therapist approves of such experiments, then gradually lower the water temperature to 10 degrees.
