Wet Warming Socks

This remedy is great for:

• Supporting the immune system while fighting a cold or flu

• Decreasing congestion in the sinus, nose, chest and lung

• Relieving headaches, migraines and general aches and pains

How it works:

The body reacts to the cold socks by increasing blood circulation allowing new immune cells to come to the infected area. This hydrotherapy process supports the body to clear congestion in the upper airways and head. It is best to start the wet sock treatment on the first day of an illness, ideally repeating it for three nights in a row.

What you will need:

• 1 pair of very thin cotton socks

• 1 pair of thick wool socks

• 1 set of sweats or pajamas

• 1 bowl of ice water

Instructions:

• Soak the pair of thin socks in the bowl of ice water. then wring the socks out thoroughly so that they do not drip.

• If feet are warm continue to step 3. If feet are cold, warm feet by placing in warm water or take a hot shower/bath. Dry feet.

• Place ice-cold wet socks on feet. Then cover with thick wool socks. Put on pajamas and go directly to bed. avoid getting chilled.

• Wear the socks overnight and in the morning the cotton socks will be dry.

CAUTION:

Do NOT use this remedy if you have asthma, a heart condition, diabetes or other circulatory problems.
