In particular, there are many acupuncture points of feet related with upper respiratory tract mucosa. If feet are cold, then immunity decline, it is apt to cause upper respiratory infection. Feet bath and massage before going to bed, it can lead entraining air to downstream, so that the feet will warm up immediately to help sleep. Ready a pot of hot water which the temperature about 30 ~ 40 degrees to soak feet for about 20 to 30 minutes generally. Material of feet bath is 50g of dried wormwood or Guizhi (can be bought in pharmacies) and boil, and can add a piece of old ginger or wine. When feet are bathing, you can massage feet.
