Soaking your feet in ginger can improve insufficient blood supply, and combined with kidney-tonifying ingredients, it can warm and nourish the kidneys.

Ginger can drive away the cold. Cold hands and feet are mainly caused by insufficient blood supply to the extremities of the body. Soaking your feet in ginger can effectively improve blood circulation and relieve the symptoms of cold hands and feet.

As people age, their kidneys weaken. Soaking your feet in ginger can improve your Qi and blood, maintain your kidneys, and effectively delay aging and prolong your life.

Adding a proper amount of black vinegar when soaking your feet with ginger can stimulate the acupoints on the soles of the feet and enhance the metabolism of various systems, thereby relaxing the body, relieving fatigue, and improving sleep quality.

5. Treat colds

Boil a thumb-sized piece of ginger in water or soak it in hot water. When the water temperature is right (around 40 degrees), use it to soak the feet of a cold patient. This can effectively prevent the symptoms from developing further and stop the cold. Even if you don't have a cold, soaking your feet in ginger can help dispel the cold and prevent it.

Ginger has a special effect in dispelling cold and wind. Rheumatic patients can effectively alleviate their symptoms by soaking their feet for half an hour every night. Soaking your feet in a wooden tub that covers your calves can better relieve symptoms such as rheumatoid arthritis.

Necessary conditions for foot bath

First, adjust the temperature of the foot bath water

Generally speaking, the temperature of foot soaking water should be between 38 and 43 degrees, but it is best not to exceed 45 degrees.

Second, choose the right foot soaking container

Since it is foot soaking, the word "soak" must be reflected. "Soaking" here means that you need to soak in plenty of water, with enough heat and for a long time. You can’t just take a basin and put some water in it. That will not have any health-preserving effect. At most it is just washing your feet, not soaking your feet.

Requirements for foot soaking containers:

1. The texture should be harmless, safe and have good thermal insulation performance.

2. Height: Generally, the height of the foot bath should be more than 20 cm (not above the ankle joint).

3. You can buy some microcomputer foot baths.

Therefore, choosing a correct foot bath can often achieve twice the result with half the effort. The invention solves the problems of complicated structure and high cost of the existing foot-soaking basin, and the purpose of health care and disease treatment can be achieved by adding Chinese medicine foot-soaking powder.
