2. Sage and Rosemary Soak
Sage has antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties.
Rosemary is also antibacterial/antifungal, and both herbs are astringent, which means that they help minimize the production of sweat from your feet.
Less sweat means a less ideal environment for bacteria.
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon of dried rosemary
- 1-2 teaspoons of dried sage
- A large bowl or bucket to soak your feet in
Instructions
- Fill a foot basin with boiling water and add the herbs to it.
- Let it steep until it is cooled down just enough to put your feet in.
- Soak for 30 minutes 1-2 times daily.
- Dry thoroughly.
