One favorite treatments for fever and congestion.
The warming sock treatment, lovingly called "Magic Socks" by many, has many uses — but it is a home hydrotherapy treatment best known for it's amazing ability to speed recovery from a cold or flu. The action of the treatment is to calm the nervous system, decongest the head and chest areas, and stimulate immune function to boost healing and repair.
SUPPLIES NEEDED ::
--> 1 pair of cotton socks
--> 1 pair of wool socks.
{The socks must be 60%+ cotton and wool respectively, predominantly synthetic socks will not work.}
HOW TO ::
--> At bedtime, soak your feet in hot water for 1 minute
--> Wet the cotton socks in cold tap water and wring out really well until they are not dripping
--> Place wet cotton socks on feet
--> Pull dry wool socks on over cotton socks
--> Go to bed
--> Repeat for 3 nights or until fever and congestion have cleared
It sounds jarring, but it's actually quite soothing. You will wake up with dry, cozy feet...and feeling a heck of a lot better!
