For a warm foot bath, water is warmed to 92-100F (33-38C). For a hot foot bath, water is warmed gradually and frequently tested with elbow to 103-108F (39-42C). Be particularly careful to test if you suffer from diabetes or other conditions that impair normal peripheral perception of temperatures. 

Soak feet 10-15 minutes.  Adding hot water from a kettle or pot with extra hot water as the bath water cools allows maximum benefit and enjoyment.

For additional benefit add 1 cup of epsom salts.  The taste associated with the winter/water element is Salty. Epsom Salts (magnesium sulfate) are easily absorbed through the skin. After your soak, wrap your feet in a hand towel to dry. 

Ginger alleviates cold and invigorates circulation. Epsom Salts relax muscles, soften the skin & deep cleans.

The metal element rules the lungs. Skin is an expression of the lung. The function of the pores to open and close depends on the balance of our internal metal.

One of the best investments that I made in the last 10 years is a home sauna. I don’t choose to use public saunas for two reasons. It’s a poor use of my time to travel from home to sweat everyday. And I am, by nature, not a renter when it comes to value. I own my wellness.

Regular saunas (4-7/week) dramatically reduce heart disease, dementia, hypertension according to recent studies. No wonder it is a traditional wisdom! It detoxifies our cells and improves our immune function.

In naturopathic medicine and nature cure, saunas are considered hydrotherapy.  Ideally, a sweat is followed by a cold plunge or shower.  Then a rest period and UV sunlight exposure.  We prescribe three rounds of hot, cold, rest, sun.
