2. Precautions for soaking feet
1, the time should not be too long, and it is best to control it in 15-20 minutes. If the time is too long, the local blood circulation in the foot is too fast for a long time, and the blood in the body will flow more to the lower limbs, resulting in cardiovascular overload. Moreover, the winter climate is inherently dry, and the skin is soaked in hot water for too long, which will also lead to the skin being too dry and prone to itching. Therefore, no matter what age people soak their feet, it is best to use certain moisturizing products after the end to keep the skin moist.
2. The water temperature should not be too high. Many people think that the higher the water temperature, the better as long as it is within their tolerance, but it is not. The best water temperature for soaking feet is below 50℃, which requires hot but not scalding. Feel the water temperature with your feet instead of your hands. If the water temperature is too high, the blood vessels on the feet will easily expand excessively, and the blood in the body will flow more to the lower limbs, which will easily lead to insufficient blood supply to important organs such as the heart, brain and kidney, which is not good for the body.
3, it is not appropriate to soak your feet within half an hour after a meal, which will affect the blood supply to the stomach. In the long run, it will make people malnourished.
4. You can't sleep immediately after soaking your feet. Rub your feet when your feet are hot, and wear socks to keep warm in time. It is best to go to bed after the whole body heat gradually decreases.
5. It's best to soak your feet comfortably with a wooden bucket or enamel basin with a deep bottom area, and it's best to let the water soak all the way to your calves. The water temperature is about 40 degrees Celsius, so water should be heated at any time to keep the temperature uniform.
6, water should have a certain degree of heat, with 40 ~ 50 degrees Celsius is appropriate. Only the feet can bear it can stimulate the acupoints, cure diseases, preserve health and strengthen the body. The amount of water should not be too small, usually over the ankle. The appropriate soaking time is 5~ 10 minute.
7. Don't read books or watch TV when soaking your feet, so it's easy to achieve the effect of "burning your body back". If the foot bath tub is not thoroughly cleaned or the tub wall is not treated with anti-bacteria, the bacteria on the feet can easily remain in the tub wall, causing repeated foot infections, so it is very important to choose a good foot bath tub.
