Soothing foot bath using essential oils

 

In a bucket, (or indeed a foot bath if you have on), mix 1 full tablespoon of salt, 1/4 cup of white vinegar and enough warm water to cover your tootsies. Soak your feet for 10 minutes and when you take them out the dead skin will practically wipe off. Magic. (Depending on how much dead skin you have of course.) Add a few do of your favourite essential oil to the bath. Feet like peppermint oil, and tea tree is good if you have tinea (Athlete’s Foot) or any other fungal condition lurking. Eucalyptus is a great antiseptic, and lavender anti-viral and just heavenly. Why not add 2-3 drop of each?
