Foot Care: Relieving Tired and Swollen Feet

by Olga Moore , 1 Response

High heels, a lot of walking, all night dancing - it all shows on your feet! Here are some useful tips that will help you to relieve tired and swollen feet in no time:

Rest your feet above your head for 10 minutes: do this by lying at right angles to a wall, or on the bed with your feet up on the headboard, or on the floor with your feet resting on the edge of a chair. Any swelling will disappear as trapped fluids travel back your legs towards your heart.

Plunge your feet into a tub of cold water or sit on the side of the bath with your feet under the cold tap; then put them up for a while.

Roll your feet over a couple of chilled cans of drink straight from the fridge.

Spritz them with a cooling foot spray, you can buy minty ones in most chemists-keep them in the fridge in hot weather.

Here’s another great recepie to help your tired feet:
“Tired feet remedy soak”
You need to pour a cup of milk and half a cup of lemon juice in a blender and mix well. Transfer the soak in a large basin and put your feet in. Rest for about 15 minutes, take your feet out and dry properly. Apply a generous amount of any hydrating cream and put on a pair of warm cotton socks.
