Detox Foot Bath – Why You Should Try One
A Detox Foot Bath Helps To Release Toxins In Your Body And Feet, Reduce Tension In Foot Muscles, And Eliminate Foot Odors.
A detox foot bath is a therapeutic treatment I often recommend to my patients and visitors to MyBadFeet.com for tired, achy feet, and foot odor. Soaking your feet in warm salt water in a foot spa, or even in a tub, is a natural treatment that removes toxins from your body and feet.
A detox foot bath also releases tension in your foot muscles to relieve foot pain, helps to eliminate bacteria and impurities that cause odors, and makes you feel relaxed.
– Feet Affect Your Overall Health & Quality of Life
Feet are very important, but often neglected, parts of the human body. However, the health and wellbeing of your feet has a direct influence on your activity level and the health of other areas of your body, such as your knees, hips and lower back.
If you neglect your feet you will be more vulnerable to foot disorders, which is why they need proper care, including the occasional detox foot bath, which you can easily do at home.
Our bodies accumulate toxic substances and impurities that flow to your feet as your blood circulates.So, while it’s also a great idea to take care of the external part of your feet, such as your nails and soles, it’s equally important to pay attention to the internal health of your feet and body. This is why a detox foot bath is invaluable.
– How A Detox Foot Bath Heals
When you soak your feet in iodized salt-water, it triggers the sweat glands in the soles of your feet to flush out several impurities from your body in the form of sweat. As a result, a detox foot bath prevents toxic substances like nicotine, fats, acid, heavy metals, acid and parasites from accumulating in your body.
A detox foot bath also protects your feet against common problems such as pain, swelling, redness and odor. This holistic foot treatment provides not only care for your tootsies, but also comfort and healing for your entire body.
– How To Do A Detox Foot Bath
1. Take a tub and fill it with warm water.
2. Add some salt to the water and place a coil in the tub.
3. Let your feet soak for thirty minutes.
4. For adults, repeat this process at least every other day for fourteen sessions, then take a weeklong break.
Keep in mind that the accumulation of toxins from your feet in the water may change the color of the water.
– What To Do After You Take A Detox Foot Bath
This healthy practice that your feet will love leaves you quite dehydrated. So it’s important to drink plenty of water for the rest of the day. You should also take a mineral supplement because a detox foot bath draws some essential minerals from your body. With these after-care steps, you’ll be reinvigorated and ready to return to the regular activities in your daily life.
