SARAH GAUDETTE'S – SIMPLE TECHNIQUES FOR REMOVING EVERYDAY STRESS AND MUSCLE TENSION
Do your hands and/or feet ache after a long day? Well I can relate. Being a massage therapist my hands sometimes get a beating and then my feet sometimes ache after standing all day long. When I come home I want relief fast. This is what I do:
1. First I want to decrease the swelling in my hands and/or feet. I fill a large bowl (for hands) or a foot spa (like Homedics) with cool water. To get the water a bit cooler add some ice cubes for a few minutes and then spoon out. Be sure to take into consideration that your hands or feet will displace some of the water so don’t fill it to the top. Now put your hands and/or feet into the cool water. Soak for 3-10 minutes.
2. Now the next step is to increase circulation and to decrease aches and pains. Empty the large bowl or foot spa. Add warm water. You can make it warmer to your liking by adding a bit of boiling water. Dissolve a half cup to a cup of Epsom salts into the warm water. You can buy Epsom salts at most grocery stores and pharmacies. Epsom salts are really just magnesium sulfate. Magnesium has been shown to help with muscles aches, sprains, and strains. And is easily absorbed by soaking. You can read more about Epsom salts at http://www.epsomsaltcouncil.org/ Soak hands or feet for 10-15 minutes.
3. Now sit back and relax. This should be the easy part. Make sure your head and back are comfortable and that you have a supportive chair to sit in. If you have a foot spa you can turn on the bubbles, heat, and massage settings to your comfort. Enjoy!
