What are the benefits of Chen Ai foot bath

Soaking feet with aged mugwort is not a new thing. In my country, using aged mugwort to soak feet has a tradition of more than 1,000 years. Since the Jin Dynasty in my country, people have known that they can use aged mugwort leaves to soak feet. Soaking your feet in aged mugwort can relieve the feeling of sleepiness and promote sleep. You may want to add some Chinese medicine when soaking your feet, which can effectively dispel the cold, promote metabolism, and treat diseases.

Mugwort is bitter. Bitter substances generally have a cooling effect, such as bitter melon and coptis chinensis, so mugwort has the effect of reducing fire, especially liver fire. As for the cold-dispelling effect of soaking your feet in mugwort, it is indeed very effective. Soaking your feet in hot water every day can promote blood circulation and drive away dampness and cold in the body. Moreover, mugwort can open up the twelve meridians and regulate yin and yang. For people with unobstructed meridians, their qi and blood will flow smoothly as well, and for people with healthy qi and blood, the cold in their body will naturally have nowhere to stay. It is best to use old mugwort for foot soaking, as it has better medicinal effects. If you can't find old mugwort leaves, you can also buy some foot bath bags at the market. The ingredient in them is mugwort powder, which is the fleshy part of the crushed mugwort leaves. This kind of effect can also be good.

Generally speaking, we soak our feet in moxa leaves or foot bath bags, which requires a process of persistence. Especially for people who have a lot of cold in their bodies for a long time, it requires long-term and unremitting efforts. One day, the cold poison in our body is gone, we have an appetite again, we feel more energetic, and we seem to be several years younger.

The water temperature should be controlled well when soaking your feet. It is best to keep it around 45℃. It is not good to be too hot or too cold. In addition, the water level should at least cover the ankles during the soaking process. In this way, effective ingredients such as Chen Ai can penetrate into the soles of the feet and take effect. When soaking your feet, you can combine it with some simple massage to improve the body's absorption rate of the effective ingredients of Chen Ai.
