My feet hurt, any recipes for a good soak?  

I also been having problem like you dear.
Due to high heeled shoes,and after a long day,i had terrible pain on my feet.
What i did is to soak my feet up to knee deep of hot water with salt for at least 15 minutes or,till the water is still hot enough.
Yes hot water,depends on your tolerance.

Then,i massage my feet with oil also my legs,upward movement.
Then,wrap with plastic (any ordinary thin plastic) then,to avoid loosing,i wear socks.
And then,lay on bed with legs up for about 15 minutes before going to sleep.
This really helps me a lot,i hope it will work for you too dear

*I can recommend Peppermint oil, it's fantastic, I use it on my own feet and I made up a spray for my Mum to use. It's really cooling and soothing.

The way you can put the oil into the water, is by adding the oil to a small amount of carrier, such as bubble bath, or even milk.




*Please note, that as a qualified aromatherapist, I have to give you these instructions/warnings:

Keep all oils away from heat, animals and children.
Keep oils away from eyes, if oil does get into the eyes, rinse with full-fat milk.
Contact your health provider, if you are on any medication, before using this remedy.


I hope this helps. :)

go for a diabetes checkup,
this is one of the main symptoms

Epsom salt and warm water is a great rememdy. You probably would also want your doctor to know what is going on as well.

Well Miss SusanLee we get that from our Granny, seems like she could have passed on something not quite so painful. I soak mine in HOT water and epsom salt in a bubbly massager then rub them really good with foot cream. You can make a really good one out of nivea oil and crisco, this one is good because oddly enough it isn't greasy and does wonders for your skin.

My feet are the same way and I work in retail. Some days Im on my feet for 9 hours or more. My whole body just aches but my feet just throb. Ive tried many products and only a handful work. I use Lavendar epson salts and peppermint oil for my feet.
