n a book I read by William
L. Fischer called Hidden Secrets
of Super Perfect Health at
Any Age, Book II, 1986, I
learn how to do herbal footbaths.
In chapter 10, The F-M Circulizer
System, Fischer discusses
the use of an herbal footbath.
After reading this chapter,
I realized how herbs in a
footbath could improve your
skin and help you eliminate
acne.
This book was written in 1986
and Fischer claims herbal
footbaths have been in use
overseas since 1946!
Now, you can do either a footbath
or a hand bath. Once you prepare
a container with hot water
you can put your feet or hands
into it and get the same results.
If you already have foot spa,
thank your mother, sister,
or whoever bought it because
you're in for a treat. If
you don't, with $20 or $30
you can get one just like
I did.
When you use a heated footbath,
veins in your feet start to
expand. Over a period of 15-20
minute, the warm water affects
your entire vascular (blood)
system and you get improved
blood circulation.
By adding an herbal infusion
into the hot water in the
footbath, minerals and other
phytochemicals from the herbs
enter the soles of your feet
and into your blood stream.
This means that you can introduce
herbal phytochemicals into
your blood stream using the
footbath. During your footbath,
these herbal chemicals quickly
circulated throughout your
body and get to work neutralizing
acid, killing bacteria, and
improving your skin circulation.
Here is an herbal combination
you can use. This herbal combination
was taken and modified slightly
from a book written by Daniel
B. Mowrey, Ph.D., called The
Scientific Validation of Herbal
Medicine, 1986. Mowrey says,
"This (herbal) blend attacks
external skin disorders from
within, purifying the blood,
carrying away waste, reinforcing
the blood's ability to ward
off infectious agents."
The herbal combination to
use is,
* Dandelion root – purifies
blood and improves liver function
* Yellow dock root –
purifies blood, helps liver,
is anti-bacterial
* Saraparilla root –
has antibiotic action, promotes
waste elimination through
urine and sweating
* Echinacea – increases
immunity and promotes skin
healing
* Licorice – protects
the liver so that it can detoxify
the blood better
* Kelp – provide minerals
and vitamins and binds heavy
metal that are bad for health
* Chaparral – is anti-microbial
making effective against acne.
* Fresh Garlic – cut
up a few cubes of garlic and
place them into the hot water.
Garlic is has antibacterial
properties.
Buy one ounce of each herb
and mix them.
Here's how to do the herbal
footbath,
* Place 2-3 tablespoons of
herbal mix into 1 cups of
water
* Boil the water with herbs
– use only a glass,
porcelain, or stainless steel
container
* After water starts to boil,
pull the container off the
stove
* Let tea sit for 15-30 minutes.
The longer the tea sits the
stronger the tea and its effects
* Prepare your foot spa with
water
* Strain the tea to remove
leaves and roots
* Poor tea and cut garlic
into the foot spa
* Place your feet or hands
in the hot water for 15 –
30 minutes.
I have been using a foot spa
for many different conditions
for my family and myself.
I really like using the footbath.
It is a convenient way to
by pass your digestive system
and get more nutrients into
your body
