FOR FEET'S SAKE

The Oil House | For Feet's Sake | Essential Oils for a Foot Spa or Foot Care
For Feet's Sake
A deliciously warm foot soak as you sit in the massage chair. All that dead skin from your heels removed. Foot scrub. Bubbles. Foot massage. Perfectly painted toenails. What's not to love about a pedicure?!
​
I have a confession to make... besides my love of pedi's.... I have size eleven feet. It makes it terribly hard to find shoes, and then when I do, theyre all half price and I have to buy the lot. (Sad, I know!) Ah, shoes.... but Im getting side-tracked. I wanted to talk about caring for your feet with essential oils. Here are some tips that I use to keep happy feet.

1. Oil your feet regularly to ease dry skin. Any carrier oil with a few drops of your favourite essential oil added. Best before bed, with socks to cover...unless you happen to live in the tropics...

2. Use diluted essential oils for stinky feet (and shoes!) Add a few drops of oil to a cotton ball and let sit in shoes to reduce the odor.

3. Peppermint is a particular favourite for feet- with the added benefits it brings...
4. Use a few drops of essential oils in your at home foot soak, encouraging relaxation, lavender is most peoples favourite, but I think that comes from not trying anything new! Give a new essential oil a try.

5. Make your own foot scrubs using salt or sugar, carrier oil (coconut) and drops of essential oils of choice. Thieves would also be a good choice due to its diminishing-stinky-smell capabilities (hehe, yes, thats a technical term!)

6. Have you ever tried reflexology? Its not for those with sensitive, tickilish feet, those with the whole “I dont like feet”, or the “I just dont like people touching my feet,” thing going on (!) but for the rest of us... think deep tissue massage for feet. Amazing. Your reflexology therapist will apply oil to your feet, then work out all those “knots”. It is said that there is a map of the body organs on the feet, which I guess means you could be supporting your body systems as well. Bonus! I encourage you to look into it. It's fascinating.

7. Oregano. Rubbing this essential oil into the bottom of feet is something I do just before bedtime so it can "do it's thing" while I sleep.

  Dont forget-Your feet lovingly hold you up all day. Treat them well!

How have you treated your feet lately? Is it time to book a pedicure, paint your nails, or maybe some reflexology? What's your favourite treat for feet?

    Hi, Im Rebecca,
    G'day from Tropical North Queensland, home of the Great Barrier Reef. Most days you'll find me barefoot, in a flowy boho dress, my head in the clouds. I have always been passionate about herbs and natural living. Essential oils are something I stumbled upon in my natural healing journey, and fell in love with their powerful benefits. Now can't see how I ever lived without them! Join me...and find your own kind of natural.
