Oil Infused Foot Bath


Directions

  • Pour Epsom salt into a glass bowl or container (I prefer a Mason jar).

  • Add your desired essential oils to the container.

  • Stir contents with a metal spoon until the oils are evenly dispersed throughout the Epsom salt.

  • Pour the salt/oil mixture into a container large enough for feet.

  • Slowly pour in warm water (enough to cover your feet).

  • Using your feet, agitate the water and salt until the salt is dissolved.

  • Add AlkaLime® and let your feet soak for 20–30 minutes.

  • Following the soak, pat your feet dry with a towel. (At this point I sometimes exfoliate my feet using a pumice stone.)

  • Once your feet are completely dry, put 1–2 tablespoons of Animal Scents® Ointment in the palm of your hand and add 1-2 drops of your preferred essential oil.

  • Apply the mixture generously to your feet and let it sit for 15–20 minutes.

  • Put on a pair of socks and go to bed.
