What Are Traditional Foot Soaks?
HARNESSING THE POWER OF THE ENERGY MERIDIAN CHANNELS THAT RUN
THROUGH THE FEET
Our herbal foot soaks are inspired by the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that recognizes that if the human body were a tree, the head would be the branch, the body would be the trunk and the feet would be the roots. To maintain health we must water our roots given our feet contain 25% of the body’s bones, 33 joints, 19 muscles, over 100 ligaments, 1000's of nerve endings & and most importantly, 6 meridians or channels through which vital energy or Qi flows, each associated with different organs & systems in the body.
​
More than a classic epsom salt foot soak, by soaking feet in our herbal foot soaks, you can take foot care to brand new heights as you have a relaxing foot bath at home working on specific health issues.
