Reflexology teaches us that the feet are a mirror to the rest of the body, housing reflex points that correspond to every part, including vital organs and glands.

Stimulating these points through massage or soaking can help us in so many ways, from alleviating pain to enhancing organ function. Here are a few of our favorite herbal recommendations:

Health Benefits

• Addressing Stagnation

  Herbal foot baths can help alleviate stagnant blood and energy. Stagnation may occur due to a sedentary lifestyle, improper footwear, or poor circulation. The warm water and herbal infusion disperse stagnation, encouraging the smooth flow of blood and energy.

• Boosting Lymphatic Drainage

  Herbal foot baths can benefit the lymphatic system, which is responsible for eliminating waste and toxins from the body. The warm water and herbal properties stimulate lymphatic circulation, aiding in the removal of metabolic waste and promoting natural detoxification.

• Feet and the Menstrual Cycle

  Reflexology points on our feet connect to various organs and systems in our body, including the uterus and ovaries. By stimulating these points through pressure or massage, we can improve the circulation of Qi and blood to our reproductive organs, supporting menstrual health.

In essence, the practice of soaking the feet is a testament to the interconnectedness of our body and mind.

It’s a reminder that caring for the smallest parts of our body can have large impacts on our overall health.
