What is the best way to soak your feet in autumn and winter? 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.

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.
