Even when you have a limited budget or don’t have enough storage space, you need not worry as these small and portable devices are available to suit different budgets and can meet the rejuvenating needs of your sore and tired feet.
But before you try to find a foot bath massager that suits your needs the best, you need to consider a few things as mentioned below.
How to take care of your tired feet at home
- Soak them up: You can fill a large tub with warm water and soak your feet in them for about 30 minutes or until the water becomes cold. You may add 1 cup of Epsom salt to the water as it reduces muscle pain and tightness.
- Give yourself a foot massage: Massage your ankle, heel, and toe joints with warm coconut oil in the evening and wear a pair of cotton socks overnight to let the oil get absorbed, which will help moisturise your skin.
- Scrub your feet: Wet your feet in a tub of warm water to which you have added a few drops of liquid soap. Work up a later, soak your feet in it, and then use a pumice stone to scrub your soles and sides to get rid of dead skin and reduce foot pain, if any.
- Use a wooden roller: Roll the soles of your feet on a wooden acupressure roller to feel relieved, boost blood circulation, and keep your feet healthy.
Tips for using foot spas
With the right foot bath massager, you can recreate the salon experience at home. Here are some tips for enjoying foot spas at home:
- Clean your feet with soap and water before putting them inside the basin of your device as it’ll help preserve the motor’s integrity and prevent bacteria from entering the machine.
- Keep bath salts and essential oils handy as you’ll need to add them to the water. You should also keep a towel close by to dry your feet after you’re done.
- Since your aim is to relax, you should decide where you want to use the foot bath massager. You should ideally set the device on floor that’s level and position yourself on a comfortable chair in front of it.
- Since most foot bath massagers feature multiple massage functions and temperature controls, you should select the desired ones you feel you need the most at that moment.
- The duration of your foot spa could be anywhere between 15 minutes and 30 minutes. Make sure it’s adequate to help you start feeling rejuvenated.
- After you turn the device off and dry your feet, remember to drain the basin water, followed by rinsing the machine with clean water and air-drying it. Proper cleaning is essential to prevent the growth of mildew or bacteria inside the basin.
