Taking care of yourself with footbaths

We often forget to pamper our feet, although they are our "roots"! Footbaths are an easy way to take care of yourself and to act on your whole body.

Very relaxing, footbaths with essential oils warm you up and help prevent the little aches and pains of winter. There are several ways to enjoy them and there are many variations: oils, essential oils, vegetable oils, salts and plant powders can enrich your foot bath for a personalised treatment.

Warming and anti-cold footbath

Ingredients: 1 tablespoon of mustard powder to be diluted in a basin of warm (but not hot) water. Dip your feet in the hot water for 15 minutes.

Mustard powder has the particularity of warming because it stimulates blood circulation and decongests the upper respiratory tract in case of colds and congested sinuses. An ally for the cold season!
