Warming Sock Treatment

Tools Needed
• One pair of thick wool socks
• One pair of cotton socks
• Lavender essential oil

Instructions
• Soak your feet in a basin or tub of warm water for 5 -10 minutes.
• Soak the cotton socks completely with cold water.  Sprinkle the socks with a few drops of essential oil and wring them out thoroughly so they do not drip.
• Place the wet cotton socks on your feet.  Then pull on the dry wool socks.  Go directly to bed and keep yourself well covered. 
• Your body will quickly generate heat to warm up your feet.  If at any point during the treatment you find your feet getting chilled, give them a quick, brisk rub.  Leave the socks on overnight.  You will find that the cotton socks  are dry in the morning.

Dose/Timing/Duration
The warming sock treatment is best if repeated for three nights in a row.  It is safe, and supportive, to use nightly
